iii. party (all by myself)
My little eye just couldn't spy that dive
I scrunched up and squinted it but couldn't seem to
Pick you out a line
Gettin' loopy as the groove gets slippery and slides round the room
And I realize that I could have a party here
All by myself
Hear a byte of a new sound bringing me to brand new heights
I read about the universe to keep up with the times
Just tryna keep up with the times and I'm back on the mend
Done it again, called up a friend, I'm keepin' a trend
I tried to pretend I was fine, I wasn't losing time
But I was losin' my mind
And I don't mind that you've got remedial instincts
When everything is in decline
And I don't mind that you've got a cover when you're on the glide
When the pen hits the paper all the lessons are useless
The money's in the right design
Well I'm all by myself, but I'll still have a party alright
Einstein tried but he couldn't find that line
The lambda, the link between the theories that would make 'em unified
But he maintained til the day that he died that God does not play dice
(God does not play dice)
Got enough mirrors, I can see what's going on
When I want to take a look, sure
It's amazing how things turn into glass sometimes
Reflecting your image and then shattering at your feet
That's why the visual is tricky
If I don't like a layer or a sound, I can lay it down
Over again and over again and over again and over again and over again
Til I get it just right
And imma get it just right
And I don't mind the view from a humble existence
When everything is in decline
And I don't price the news cuz I'm gonna get it from the vine
When the banjo's a-pickin' and the mandolin gets in
You know we're gettin' down tonight
Well I'm all by myself but I'm gonna have a party alright
My little eye just couldn't spy that line
I scrunched up and squinted it but couldn't seem to get it on by
But when the lights go down, the curtains come up in your mind
And when the lights go down, you might just get to glimpse the design
And when the lights go down, the party can begin
I scrunched up and squinted it but couldn't seem to
Pick you out a line
Gettin' loopy as the groove gets slippery and slides round the room
And I realize that I could have a party here
All by myself
Hear a byte of a new sound bringing me to brand new heights
I read about the universe to keep up with the times
Just tryna keep up with the times and I'm back on the mend
Done it again, called up a friend, I'm keepin' a trend
I tried to pretend I was fine, I wasn't losing time
But I was losin' my mind
And I don't mind that you've got remedial instincts
When everything is in decline
And I don't mind that you've got a cover when you're on the glide
