Don't Know How To Party - The Mighty Mighty Bosstones

I’ve heard all the stories, the failure and glories I haven’t had either.

Boast and toast I’m the best and I’m a mess.

I know I’m not neither.

Thought

I was down as far as any man could go, thought my highs were giant size.

I know now that’s not so.

I know you heard, know you heard, know you heard,

don’t believe a word, not a wrod, one word.

It’s been overblown, the truth

should be known 'til now I couldn’t see.

Put my cards on the table while I’m

still able, I guess I really don’t know how to party.

It’s blown out of whack,

the truth is what’s lacking, 'til now I couldn’t see.

The long and the short

I’d like to report, I guess I really don’t know how to party.

Really don’t by any shape or form.

Whether straight up in the sunshine or passed out in the

storm don’t know how but now I know I don’t will it help me out?

No, it probably won’t.

Ten nine ain’t no hero number one at bad behavior.

Five, four,

three, two, what?

not zero.

Don’t go counting on a savior.

I was playing it safe when I’d fall on my face.

Entertainment was what I was after, harmless

fun, no damage done.

I was out and about for the laughter.

Thought I was some-

thing really something no one was gonna touch.

Ace in the place, kingpin of sin I didn’t know too much.

Don’t believe everything you’ve heard, don’t

believe a solitary word.

It’s been overblown, the truth should be known, 'til

now I couldn’t see.

Put my cards on the table while I’m still able I guess I really don’t know how to party.

Really don’t by any shape and form.

Whether

straight up in the sunshine or passed out in a storm, don’t know how but now I know I don’t.

Will it help me out, no it probably won’t.

I don’t have a notion

and I don’t have a clue, an iota or an inkling where to start or waht to do.

The foggiest, the faintest, the slightest I ain’t got.

Will it help me out?

Nah, probably not.
