Prince - 1999 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was dreaming when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes stray
But when I woke up this morning
I could have sworn it was judgment day
The sky was all purple
There were people running everywhere
Trying to run from the destruction
You know I didn't even care, cause they say

[Chorus:]
2000 zero, zero party over
Oops out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party
Like it's 1999

[Verse 2:]
I was dreaming when I wrote this
So sue me if I goes to fast
But life is just a party
And parties weren't meant too 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, cause they say

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
If you didn't come to party
Don't bother knocking 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'll let that happen
I'll dance my life away, They say

[Chorus x2]

[Ad-Libs]

[Chorus]
