[Intro]
*People chatting*

[Verse 1]
Party people are such funny people
Happy people or so it seems
Ah-uh-uh, but party people (Party people)
Are really lonely people (Party people)
Phony people who live only in dreams

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause when the music's gone
And the lights come on
And somebody says "It's time to go home"

[Chorus]
Those party people (Party people)
Those party people (Party people)
Sometimes cry when the party's over

[Verse 2]
Party people seem like cheery people
Oh, but they're weary people
With no place left to run
Lord, have mercy on party people (Party people)
They're such proud people (Party people)
And they're loud people livin' only for fun

[Pre-Chorus]
So, they numb their minds
With their sparkling wine
And though they may deny that it's true

[Chorus]
Those party people (Party people)
Those very same party people (Party people)
Sometimes cry when the party's over

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
So they numb their minds
With a bottle of wine
And though they may deny that it's true

[Chorus]
Those party people (Party people)
Those party people (Party people)
Sometimes cry when the party's over

[Outro]
When the party's over
When it's over
When it's over
