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


Say say two thousand zero zero party over, oops, out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's nineteen ninety-nine

I was dreamin' when I wrote this, so sue me if I go too 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 hey, they say two thousand zero zero party over, oops, out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's nineteen ninety-nine

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,
Everybody's got a bomb, we could all die any day
But before I let that happen, I'll dance my life away

Prince (1958-2016)
Lyrics 1999 (released 1982)
