1999 Lyrics

I was dreamin′ when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray
But when I woke up this morning
Could've sworn it was judgment day

The sky was all purple
There were people runnin′ everywhere
Tryin' to run from my destruction
You know I didn't even care

Say, say two thousand-zero-zero party over
Oops, out of time
So tonight I′m gonna party like it′s 1999

I was dreamin' when I wrote this
So sue me if I go too fast
But life is just a party
And parties weren′t meant to last

War is all around us
My mind says prepare to fight
So if I gotta die
I'm gonna listen to my body tonight

Yeah, they say two thousand-zero-zero party over
Oops, out of time
So tonight I′m gonna party like it's 1999
Yeah, yeah

Let me tell ya somethin′
If you didn't come to party
Don't bother knockin′ on my door
I got a lion in my pocket
And baby he′s ready to roar, yeah, yeah

Everybody's got a bomb
We could all die here today, aw
But before I′ll let that happen
I'll dance my life away, oh

They say two thousand-zero-zero party over
Oops, out of time, we′re runnin' outta time
So tonight (tonight I′m gonna party like it's 1999), ow
Say it one more time

Two thousand-zero-zero party over
Oops, out of time
Yeah, yeah, so tonight (tonight I'm gonna party like it′s 1999), we gonna, whoa!

1999, don′t you wanna go?
1999, don't you wanna go?
1999, oh, we could all die any day
