lyrics

Hey y’all sinners and believers!
This song is dedicated to the holy man!
The saviour of mankind!
He who taught the people how to live,
How to love,
And most of all,
How to party!

I got wet when I got I Get Wet stuck on repeat
It’s Time To Party and it gets my senses tingling
There’s running, jumping, there’s walking on ceilings
Cause he taught me how to party with the right amount of feeling
They just repressed every book and every dictionary
Cause we didn’t have a word for what this visionary man was doing
Or saying, we couldn’t pin it down
(Except that one phrase from the Kempen where they say they ‘go full clown’)
There’s drums, guitars, bass, the good ol’ shebang
And the keyboard king keyboarding, serenading partying
It all fits, works, flows like an MC Karel song
We’re gonna have a Fun Night, don’t tell me that I’m wrong

I can die alone - I don’t care, I don’t care
I can party alone - I don’t care, I don’t care
I can drink by myself
Keep track of my mental health
I can party alone but I don’t have to

Fist pump, head bang, all my limbs are god damn
Buzzing from the sound of the rock music propelling
From the stereo, there’s no sadness anymore
When Girls Own Love starts playing cause I know the world is dying
And we’re all doing okay and - wait! wait! -
I can hear my problems fading in the background
Like the stack of eurocents on my bank account
They’re dropping like flies and I know exactly why
It’s cause I spent all my money on these party supplies!
No need for a successor we can safely go extinct now
We’ll have a final party and forget everything now
There’s nowhere left to hide, I guess we’re all Ready To Die

Every day when I get home from work
I see a chance, an opportunity
I get a cold can from the fridge,
open up a bag of potato chips
and I watch the world go by
I'm lost between dimensions,
just trying to feel content.
Sure I can party alone, but I don't have to.
Sure I can die alone, but I don't have to.
