Hit it

This ain't no disco


It ain't no country club either


This is L.A.




"All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die"


Says the man next to me out of nowhere

It's apropos of nothing, he says his name is William


But I'm sure he's Bill or Billy or Mac or Buddy




And he's plain ugly to me


And I wonder if he's ever had a day of fun in his whole life


We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday

In a bar that faces a giant car wash





The good people of the world

Are washing their cars on their lunch break


Hosing and scrubbing as best they can in skirts in suits




They drive their shiny Datsuns and Buicks


Back to the phone company, the record store too


Well they're nothing like Billy 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 a good beer buzz early in the morning


And Billy likes to peel the labels from his bottles of Bud

He shreds them on the bar then he lights every match


In an oversized pack letting each one burn




Down to his thick fingers before blowing and cursing them out


And he's watching the bottles of Bud

As they spin on the floor




And 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 clean and dirty cars

The sun and the moon




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


I've got a feeling the party has 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
