There's a party tonight, and I think that I might not be going

But I hate putting fights up with people that I love and want me there

So I call up a best friend, he's got an ex probably going

If I know him at all, then he probably won't wanna see her

He says the words I wanna hear

"I don't wanna go either"

Everyone's drinking and singing along

We would stand next to the speaker

You know I'm praying you'll say what I want

Tell me you don't wanna go either

Blowin' smoke, "You got a lighter?" "I don't"

TV's on, but nobody's watching

Everyone's drinking and singing along

Staying at home would be cheaper

You know I'm praying you'll say what I want

Tell me you don't wanna go either

So let's say that I have a momentary lapse in judgment

Drink everything that I'm handed, and the chances rise

And I almost forget the lights that I left on, dog that I don't own

'Til somebody says that they're going to bed, "Have fun at the next one"

Think I wanna be her

I don't wanna go either

Everyone's drinking and singing along

We would stand next to the speaker

You know I'm praying you'll say what I want

Tell me you don't wanna go either

Run and go, nobody here I know

On their phones, nobody's talking

Everyone's drinking and singing along

Staying at home would be cheaper

You know I'm praying you'll say what I want

Tell me you don't wanna go

What if I miss out? (I don't wanna go)

What if I regret this? (I don't think so)

What if everybody really wants me there? (What if I don't care?)

What if I miss out? (I don't wanna go)

What if it's the one time it's actually fun, though?

What if the love of my life is there?

Blowin' smoke, "You got a lighter?" "I don't"

TV's on, but nobody's watching

Everyone's drinking and singing along

Staying at home would be cheaper

You know I'm praying you'll say what I want

Tell me you don't wanna go either
