The Art of Parties

Once I was young

Once I was smart

Now I'm living on the edge of my nerves

The things we said weren't quite so tough

When we were youWell I'm burning,

I'm burning buildings

I'm building this timeBurn

For the art of parties

Burn

Under heavy weather

The art of parties

I'm burning, burningI'm living

I'm living my life

I'm living this timeBurn

For the art of parties

Burn

I'm burning, burning(The wind blew through my hair)

Once I was young

(I'd shelter from the sun)

Once I was smart

(We lived on the strength of our nerves)

When we were youWell I'm building,

I'm burning buildings

I'm burningBurn

For the art of parties

Burn

Under heavy weather

Burn

For the art of parties

I'm burning, burning
