Prince Prince - 1999 Lyrics Prince lyrics

Don't worry, I won't hurt you
I only want you to have some fun

I was dreamin' when I wrote this, forgive me if it goes astray
But when I woke up this mornin', could've sworn it was Judgment Day
The sky was all purple, there were people runnin' everywhere
Tryin' to run from the destruction, you know I didn't even care

'Cuz they say 2000 zero zero party over, oops, out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999

I was dreamin' when I wrote this, so sue me if I go to fast
But life is just a party and parties weren't meant to last
War is all around us, my mind says prepare to fight
So if I gotta die, I'm gonna listen to my body tonight

Yeah, they say 2000 zero zero party over, oops, out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
(Yeah, yeah)

People, let me tell you somethin'
If you didn't come to party, don't bother knockin' on my door
I got a lion in my pocket and, baby, he's ready to roar
(Yeah)
Everybody's got a bomb, we could all die any day
(Oh)
But before I let that happen, I'll dance my life away

Oh, they say 2000 zero zero party over, oops, out of time
(We're runnin' out of time)
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
(We gonna, we gonna, oh)

Say it one more time 2000 zero zero party over, oops, out of time
(No, no)
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
(We're gonna, we gonna)

Alright,1999
You say it,1999
1999

(1999)

Don't stop, don't stop, say it one more time
2000 zero zero party over, oops, out of time
(Yeah, yeah)
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
(We gonna, we're gonna)

Yeah, 1999
(1999)
Don't you wanna go?
(1999)
Don't you wanna go?
(1999)
We could all die any day
(1999)
I don't wanna die, I'd rather dance my life away
(1999)

Listen to what I'm tryin' to say
Everybody, everybody say party
Come on now, you say it
(Party)
That's right, everybody say
([Unverified])

Can't run from revelation, no sing it for your nation, y'all
Dreamin' when you're singin', baby
Say the telephone a-ringin', mama, now
Come on, come on, you say everybody, two times

Work it down to the ground, I'm sayin'
("Oh baby, say it again, oh, shake your body, baby")
That's right, come on, sing the song
That's right, everybody say
Got a lion in my pocket mama, say
Ah, and he's ready to roar, yeah
