The Year Before the Year 2000 Songtext

von Les Savy Fav

If you fear, my dear, the end is near,
Please do check your frontal hemisphere.
Bitty chicky peeps the sky will fall
You should sense I've guessed it just won't end at all.

It's hard to keep from hoarding
When you wake up Monday morning
In your life with no end in sight,
You thought you'd die on Friday night.
Everybody, please keep trying,
Trying to party like it's 1999.
Even though we've got so much time
We need to spend it like it's 1999.

If you wish to close the bar tonight,

Brace yourself 'cause there's no end in sight.
You can't pace yourself and you can't take it slow,
You have to drink it dry before this place is gonna close.

It's hard to keep on spending
Every night like your life is ending
When every night there's another there
Wearing you down with the moonlight's stare.
Everybody, please keep trying,
Trying to party like it's 1999.
Even though we've got so much time
We gotta spend it like it's 1999.

1999
1999's alright.
