Party Line

(アルバム： Modern Heart - 1983)

I was the one you left behind
When you had something else to do
And that was nearly all the time
I hear you're trying something new
I'm tired of staying here at home
While you would party every night
Now you're the one that's left alone, oh-oh...
This time, you've got to see the light

It ain't just a matter of fact
It's a party line
It ain't just a matter of course
It's not me this time
It ain't just a matter of fact
It's a party line
Give it up tonight
While the time is right
Party line

I'm tired of your dishonesty
I'm tired of all your curt replies
I'm tired of all your flippancy
I'm tired of all your hows and whys
My world is hungry for romance
You've made my heart a desert land
So let's do without your song and dance, oh-oh...
You spin the wheel, now take a chance

It ain't just a matter of fact
It's a party line
It ain't just a matter of course
It's not me this time
It ain't just a matter of fact
It's a party line
Give it up tonight
While the time is right
Party line

The line, give it up
(Get off the party line)
The line, give it up
Get off the party line
The line, give it up
(Get off the party line)
The line, give it up
Get off the party line

The line, give it up
(Get off the party line)
The line, give it up
Get off the party line
The line, give it up
(Get off the party line)
The line, give it up
Get off the party line

Party line
Me this time
Party line
Party line

Party line
Me this time
Party line
Party line

It ain't just a matter of fact
Party line
It ain't just a matter of course
Me this time
It ain't just a matter of fact
Party line
Give it up tonight
While the time is right
Party line

It ain't just a matter of fact
It's a party line
It ain't just a matter of course
It ain't me this time
It ain't just a matter of fact
It's a party line
Give it up tonight
While the time is right
Party line...
