Talking backwards and drinking til it's gone
Playing out of tune pianos
Where nothing sounds wrong
It's New Year's Eve
The Saints are crashing in
Pick on that guitar
Pick up that violin

We're gonna get happy
Gonna get free
It's a rock 'n' roll party
And they're dancing for me
Gonna get happy
Gonna get stoned
It's a rock 'n' roll party
In the funeral home

Stinking of whisky and looking to fall in love
With a beautiful girl
She never does what she should
She grew up honest but she grew up fond
Of that spot over the hill
Where they play them naughty songs

We're gonna get happy
Gonna get free
It's a rock 'n' roll party
And they're dancing for me
Gonna get happy
Gonna get stoned
It's a rock 'n' roll party
In the funeral home

Waking up on the floor not knowing where I am
Electric light buzzing and cutting through my head
If I could go back in time
I'd tell her I loved her smile
And nighttime is the righttime for something wild

We're gonna get happy
Gonna get free
It's a rock 'n' roll party
And they're dancing for me
Gonna get happy
Gonna get stoned
It's a rock 'n' roll party
In the funeral home
