THE WATERBOYS - WORLD PARTY lyrics

rate me

Well it's got nothing to do with anything that is real

you just believe in it and it's true

You can sooth like an angel or sigh like a saint

you can dream it and see it through

You will live to see a sea of lights

sparking on the face of a pearl

Climb your own peak

find a new streak

Get yourself along to the world party (party!)

Now you've been building for yourself a cool place in the sand

you're thinking that it's mighty fine

You've got dust in your eyeballs, you got mud in your mouth

but it's your head, it ain't mine

I've got a madman of my own to contend with

cursing in the cave of my skull

Turn the other cheek

find a new streak

Get yourself along to the world party (party!)

Well I heard a rumour of a golden age

somewhere back along the line

Maybe I dreamed it in a whisper or

heard it in a spell

It was something to do with the sign of the times

and the only thing that I remember

Is a summer like a pretty girl

who shimmers and shines

Moving in time

shaking to the beat of the heart of the world

Party (party! party! party! party! party! party! party! party! party!)
