"This Is Not A Party" lyrics - THE WOMBATS

Lulu's doing haircuts though I don't think she can see
Brendan's found a song to match the pace of his heartbeat
Why do I do this? Why do I do this at all?
Edward's on the big white telephone to God
Charlie's coming onto every person he can touch
Why does this happen every time?
I dream in Technicolor and live in black and white

[Chorus:]
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
And no one really cares so let's pretend we're all okay
This is not a party, it's a hurricane

Roxy's made the call although her boyfriend wants to go
Jane's sprawled on the floor and I have lost all self-control
Why does this happen, why must it be?
I dream of space and time and wake up in 2D

[Chorus:]
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
And no one really cares so let's pretend we're doing great
This is not a party, it's a hurricane

[Bridge:]
You're complicated
You're complicated
You're complicated
Why so complicated?
But don't lose sleep, don't worry about me
I'm just fishing for the moon in an artificial sea

[Chorus:]
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
And I don't really care and I am never gonna change
This is not a party, it's a hurricane

This is not a party, it's a hurricane
You said we'd never work, you said we weren't the same
And I don't really care and I don't ever want to change
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
