Owl City - Garden Party lyrics

[Owl City - Garden Party lyrics]

I went to a garden party to
Reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories
And play our songs again
When I got to the garden party
They knew my name but no one recognized me
I didn't look the same

But it’s alright now
I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone
So you gotta please yourself

People came from miles around
And everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus
There was magic in the air
And over in the corner, much to my surprise
Mr hughes hid in Dylan’s shoes
Wearing his disguise



But it’s alright now
I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone
So you gotta please yourself

I played them all the old songs
I thought that’s why they came
But no one heard the music
We didn’t look the same
I said "Hello" to Mary Lou, she belongs to me
And when I sang a song about a Honky Tonk
It was time to leave

But it’s alright now
I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone
So you gotta please yourself

Someone opened up a closet door and
Out stepped Johnny B good
Playin' guitar like ringin' a bell
And looking like he should
If you gotta play at garden parties
I wish you a lot of luck
But if memories were all I sang
I’d rather drive a truck

But it’s alright now
I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone
So you gotta please yourself

You can’t please everyone
So you gotta please yourself
