Lyrics
I'm missing a party man and everyone is there
I'm missing a party man but I don't even care
I'm already wasted, On a good time
Already wasted with an old friend of mine
Wasted, on convenience store wine
Well I missed the party but I did not miss the fun
and if it says Open all night it says written across your tongue
Open up wide and come to every party I throw
it's the kind of party that you gotta like to swallow
I'm already wasted, On a Good time
I already tasted, everything you'd like to find.
Psychofunkarockahillybilly gonna be a
Rockstar
Dropped a hit of acid I found in the ashtray of my car
oh but I did not need to remember
where I hid the XTC
keep the mushrooms in the freezer
with 3 or 4 fifths of whiskey
I'm not thinking bout where I am or where I am supposed to be
and if you got to know what time it is
don't ask me
I woke up this morning with a big bad smile
I got a smile inside just like a crocodile
in the forever-tripping glades
Hey you can float in denial
but I'm gonna call up Cleopatra
and do it all Egyptian style
I didn't catch the party
throwing one instead
and the party that I'm missing
ain't as fun as the one that's in my head
