Soul Asylum - Masquerade lyrics
[Soul Asylum - Masquerade lyrics]
I'm so glad we could get together
I thank you for supplying the fun
Well, we took this time
Out to enjoy ourselves
Now let's just fucking get it done
Well, we're talkâ€"talkâ€"talking
And talkâ€"talkâ€"talkâ€"talking
And maybe we'll have a little fight
Hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, hush
Now don't you admit that the
Reason you are here
Is just to get fucked tonight? Come on
This masquerade is over
(Personal invitations only)
Iâ€" Iâ€" I got my makeup on
I got my hair all done
I bet you can't even guess who I am
Well, I? I thought you were my friend
But then the troubles began
And that old identity set in
I see no end to this
Bullshit so let's talk politics
Where it's parties, parties
Parties all the time
We got big long cars, we got movie stars
We got the three B's, and don't
You forgetting, the bigots, the bombs
And barriers
This masquerade is over
(Hey, hey)
I didn't invite no black
White-hippie, hardcore, the rich
Hasidic Jews, reds, white bastard
Mothers, ya know, ya know
You're think you're something
Special, you know
I certainly didn't invite you
You know these costume parties they're
Such a good time
But ya, know I think I'm gonna
Have to be headin' home, ha, ha
Ha, you know it's funny
How these social events
They just make me want to be alone
This masquerade is over
This masquerade is over
This masquerade is over
It's all over it's all over
It's all over
It's over it's over
It's over it's over
It's over it's over
It's over it's over
It's over it's over
It's over it's over
It's over
It's all over it's all over
It's all over it's all over
Ha, ha, ha
I thank you for supplying the fun
Well, we took this time
Out to enjoy ourselves
Now let's just fucking get it done
Well, we're talkâ€"talkâ€"talking
And talkâ€"talkâ€"talkâ€"talking
And maybe we'll have a little fight
Hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, hush
Now don't you admit that the

It's all over it's all over
