The Life And Soul Of The Party Dies Lyrics - Singles - Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine

The decorations are drab 

It's dirty and it smells 

You don't have to be mad to work here 

But it helps 

The temptation to fail 

Would make a boots bunny cry 

You need the patience of a snail 

Just to get by 

Today the police came 

And paid a visit to the slums 

Exchanging rock 'n' roll concert tickets 

For guns 

If you supply the wool 

They can make you a star 

But if the ashtrays are full 

You might have to sell the car 

When you don't wanna be 

The life and soul of the party anymore 

And the birthday cake 

Was baked to make you cry 

When you don't wanna dance to the rock 'n' roll 

That your radio's for 

You wanna call it a day 

Crawl away and die, so do I 

There's a place you sometimes go 

When you can't face your own shadow 

They've got an old jukebox 

Supposed to keep you entertained 

But all the records suck 

They wind you up, they drive you insane 

This funeral director geezer 

Comes not to bury Caesar 

I only come to praise you 

Because I feel the same too 

Maybe we should hit the coast hard 

To the scene of a saucy postcard 

Or to Paris for a wilting flower 

To get an eyeful of the tower 

Because there's a sadness in those eyes 

As the life and soul of the party dies 

No, you don't wanna be 

The life and soul of the party anymore 

And the birthday cake 

Was baked to make you cry 

No you don't wanna dance to the rock 'n' roll 

That your radio's for 

You wanna call it a day 

Crawl away and die, so do I
