Jimmy Buffett - Party at the End of the World lyrics
[Jimmy Buffett - Party at the End of the World lyrics]
Come in New York hello, Rio
The bad news is the world is ending
The good news is there's a party
But you better get here quick
When you feel like a
Written-off actor on Deadwood
About to get fed to the pigs
When that preacher's bus from hell
Blastin' just cowbell
Parks it'self in front of your gigs
There's a place you can go
Called Tierra del Fuego
Down in the Southern Hemisphere
It's kinda Troy without Helen
Past the Strait's of Magellan
And things are always looking up down here
'Cause there's a party at the
End of the world
Where the locals do the tango twirl
Forget the temples in Nepal
Cancel the fete in Montreal
There's a party at the end of the world
Well, it seems like I've run out
Of reasons to be here
So I'm just gonna steal from myself
If your attitude's appalling
There's a latitude that's calling
Get yourself past that continental shelf
Now the band that we hired
Is playing quite inspired
Singing Eskimos and eunuchs from Bangkok
And the location's so nice
We'll never run out of ice
‘Cause Antarctica is just around the block
There's a party at the end of the world
Where the locals do that tango twirl
Now don't make that big mistake-a and
Wind up with Miss Jamaica
At the party at the end of world
Flying machines, yellow submarines
French girls in cowboy décor, d 'accord
RSVP isn't needed, you see
And they all just be screaming for more
Amour
In case you haven't heard
Things are getting quite absurd
No one really shocks us, that's for sure
Roadside bombers and tsunamis
Oh god how I miss those commies
No one really plays fair anymore
But I've spoken to the yogis
Had some meetings with my roadies
Who tell me that arrangements are complete
Just below the roaring forties
I am going to fly some sorties
So you best reserve that
Cherished window seat
To the party at the end of the world
Where the locals do that tango twirl
I don't care about the rapture when
There's native girls to capture
There's a party at the end of the world
Who cares if there's no playa?
We'll be rocking in Ushuaia
At the party at the end
You surely must attend
The party at the end of the world
