How did I get here?
I heard a rumour
From your girlfriend's sister
that you knew me
And you end up dancing
closer to me
I know that I broke
the rule already
She asks me
if I'm single / going steady
I just drop my head and
took a step off into the dark
Standing on the black
and white tiles
(Don’t dance on the lines
cos the bears eat
the pretty ones)
We are like the islands,
divided
Jump to the beat of
a party line
Jump to the beat of
a party line
There is no body here
but your body near
Jump to the beat of
a party line
Stay, you stay
I am on this morning
quite distracted
The tug of war begins
on our emotions
I am leaving many people
feeling worse than before
People like to drive
their cars and smoke up
People like to sit inside
and toke up
People like to shoot
at things
With borrowed guns
and knives
I am happy to look and run
(Where were you
when I was king
in this part of town?)
Now the days of
glory are gone
Jump to the beat of
a party line
Jump to the beat of
a party line
There is no body here
but your body, dear
Jump to the beat of
a party line
Jump to the beat of
a party line
Jump to the beat of
a party line
There is no body here
but your body, dear
Nobody here
but your body, dear
