1999 Lyrics by Prince

Dont worry, I wont hurt u
I only want u 2 have some fun
I was dreamin when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray
But when I woke up this mornin
Coulda sworn it was judgment day
The sky was all purple,
There were people runnin everywhere
Tryin 2 run from the destruction,
U know I didnt even care

cuz they say two thousand zero zero party over,
Oops out of time
So tonight Im gonna party like its 1999

I was dreamin when I wrote this
So sue me if I go 2 fast
But life is just a party, and parties werent meant 2 last
War is all around us, my mind says prepare 2 fight
So if I gotta die Im gonna listen 2 my body tonight

Yeah, they say two thousand zero zero party over,
Oops out of time
So tonight Im gonna party like its 1999
Yeah

Lemme tell ya somethin
If u didnt come 2 party,
Dont bother knockin on my door
I got a lion in my pocket,
And baby hes ready 2 roar
Yeah, everybodys got a bomb,
We could all die any day
But before Ill let that happen,
Ill dance my life away

Oh, they say two thousand zero zero party over,
Oops out of time
Were runnin outta time (tonight Im gonna)
So tonight we gonna (party like its 1999)
We gonna, oww

Say it 1
