Nick Hakim, Roy Nathanson - Cry and Party Lyrics

Youth, that's a biennial right?
I just planted 3 on my front lawn.
They were like bulbs, old ones.
The ones with the filaments
and the heads
too big for their bodies

You know, biennials
cry half the time
party the rest.

Cry and Party, Cry Party
Cryin' party, Cry, Cry Party
Cry and Party, Cry Party
Cryin' party, Cry, cry, Party

Now they say old is a weed
I say it's a seed
For a bird to chomp on
when it spreads its wings
And its tears settle on the grass
Just In time to:

Cry and Party, Cry Party
Cryin' party, Cry,cry Party
Cry and Party, Cry Party
Cryin' party, Cry, cry, Party

Look around, or not
Party's hot
Arctic meltdowns, flaming trees.
This dance floor's set to freeze:
So, C'mon now please, please, please

Cry and Party, Cry Party
Cryin' party, Cry,cry Party
