"All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die"
Says the man next to me, out of nowhere
It's apropos nothing and he says his name is William
But I'm sure it's Bill, or Billy, or Mac, or Buddy
And he's damn ugly to me
And I wonder if he's ever had a day of fun in his whole life
He's drinking beer at noon on Tuesday
In a bar that faces a giant car wash
And the good people of the world are washing their cars
On their lunch breaks, hosing and scrubbing
As best they can in skirts and suits
They drive their shiny Lexus and Buicks
Back to the phone company and the record store too
But they're nothing like Bill and me, 'cause
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard
I
like my caffeine buzz early in the morning
And Bill likes to peel the labels from his bottles of Bud
He shreds them on the bar
Then lights every match in an oversized pack
Letting each one burn down to his thick fingers
Before blowing and cursing them out
Watching the bottles of Bud as they spin on the floor
A happy couple enters the bar
Dangerously close to one another
The bartender looks up from his want ads
But all I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard
Otherwise
the bar is ours
The day and the night and the car wash too
The matches and the Buds and the cleanin' dirty cars
The sun and the moon
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
All I wanna do, the party's just begun
All I wanna do is have some fun
I won't tell you that you're the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard
