[Verse 1]
I was dreamin' when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray
I woke up this morning
I swore it was judgment day
The sky was all purple
People runnin' everywhere
Should I run from my destruction
Though I didn't even care
[Hook]
Say...
2000 zero zero party over oops out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
[Verse 2]
I was dreamin' when I wrote this
Sue me if I go too fast
Life is just a party
Parties weren't meant to last
War is all around us
Mind says prepare to fight
If I gotta die
Listen to my body tonight
[Hook]
Say...
2000 zero zero party over oops out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
[Verse 3]
If you didn't come to party
Don't bother knockin' on my door
There's a lion in my pocket
Baby, he's ready to roar
Everybody's got a bomb
We all die any day
Before I'll let that happen
I'll dance my life away
[Hook]
They say...
2000 zero zero party over oops out of time
So tonight we gonna party like it's 1999
They say...
2000 zero zero party over oops out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
