Soul Asylum - Masquerade lyrics

(Screaming gibberish) I'm so glad we could get together I thank you for supplying the fun Well, we took this time out to enjoy ourselves Now let's just f**ing get it done Well, we're talkâ€"talkâ€"talking and talkâ€"talkâ€"talkâ€"talking And maybe we'll have a little fight Hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, now don't you admit that the reason you are here Is just to get f**ed tonight? Come on This masquerade is over (Personal invitations only) Iâ€" Iâ€" I got my makeup on I got my hair all done I bet you can't even guess who I am Well, I? I thought you were my friend But then the troubles began And that old identity set in I see no end to this bullsh** so let's talk politics Where it's parties, parties, parties all the time We got big long cars, we got movie stars We got the three B's, and don't you forgetting, the bigots, the bombs, and barriers This masquerade is over (Hey, hey) I didn't invite no black, white-hippie, hardcore, the rich, Hasidic Jews, reds, white-ba*tard mothers, ya know, ya know You're think you're something special, you know, I certainly didn't invite you You know these costume parties they're such a good time But ya, know I think I'm gonna have to be headin' home, ha, ha Ha, you know it's funny how these social events, they just make me want to be alone This masquerade is over This masquerade is over This masquerade is over It's all over It's all over It's all over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's over It's all over It's all over It's all over It's all over Ha, ha, ha
