Your rating:
Don't worry, I won't hurt U 
I only want U 2 have some fun 
I was dreamin' when I wrote this, forgive me if it goes astray 
But when I woke up this mornin', could've sworn it was Judgment Day 
The sky was all purple, there were people runnin' everywhere 
Tryin' 2 run from the destruction, U know I didn't even care 
Cuz they say 2000 zero zero party over, oops, out of time! 
So 2night I'm gonna party like it's 1999!

I was dreamin' when I wrote this, so sue me if I go 2 fast 
But life is just a party and parties weren't meant 2 last 
War is all around us, my mind says prepare 2 fight 
So if I gotta die, I'm gonna listen 2 my body 2night 
Yeah, they say 2000 zero zero party over, oops, out of time! 
So 2night I'm gonna party like it's 1999! (Yeah, yeah).

People, let me tell U somethin' 
If U didn't come 2 party, don't bother knockin' on my door 
I got a lion in my pocket and, baby, he's ready 2 roar (Yeah) 
Everybody's got a bomb, we could all die any day (Oh) 
But before I let that happen, I'll dance my life away 
Oh, they say 2000 zero zero party over, oops, out of time! 
(We're runnin' out of time) 
So 2night I'm gonna party like it's 1999! (We gonna, we gonna, oh!).

Say it one more time 
2000 zero zero party over, oops, out of time! (No, no) 
So 2night I'm gonna party like it's 1999! (We're gonna, we gonna).

Alright, 1999 
U say it, 1999 
1999 (1999).

Don't stop, don't stop, say it one more time 
2000 zero zero party over, oops, out of time! (Yeah, yeah) 
So 2night I'm gonna party like it's 1999! (We gonna, we’re gonna) 
Yeah, 1999 (1999).

Don't U wanna go? (1999) (2×).

We could all die any day (1999) 
I don't wanna die, I'd rather dance my life away (1999) 
Listen 2 what I'm tryin' 2 say 
Everybody, everybody say party! 
Come on now, U say it (Party!) 
That's right, everybody say 
(Party!) (Repeat in BG).

Can't run from Revelation, no! 
Sing it 4 your nation, y'all! 
Dreamin' when U're singin’, baby! 
Say the telephone a-ringin', mama, now! 
Come on, come on, U say 
Everybody, 2 times.

Work it down 2 the ground, I’m sayin’ 
(Oh baby, say it again) 
(Oh, shake your body, baby!) 
That's right, come on, sing the song 
That's right, everybody say 
Got a lion in my pocket mama, say! 
Ah, and he's ready 2 roar! 
Yeah!

Mommy, why does everybody have a bomb? (x2)
