Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lulu's doing haircuts so I don't think she can see
Brendan's found a song
To match the pace of his heartbeat
Why do I do this? Why do I do this at all?
[Verse 2]
Edward's on the big white telephone to God
Charlie's coming on to every person he can touch
Why does this happen every time?
I dream in technicolor and I live in black and white
[Verse 3]
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
And no one really cares so let's pretend we're all okay
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
[Verse 4]
Roxy's made the call although her boyfriend wants to go
Jane's sprawled on the floor and I have lost all self-control
Why does this happen? Why must it be?
I dream in space and time then wake up in 2D
[Verse 5]
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
And no one really cares so let's pretend we're doing great
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
[Verse 6]
You're complicated, you're complicated
You're complicated, why so complicated?
But don't lose sleep, don't worry about me
I'm just fishing for the moon in an artificial sea
[Verse 7]
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
And I don't really care and I am never gonna change
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
[Verse 8]
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
You said we'd never work, you said we weren't the same
And I don't really care and I don't ever want to change
This is not a party, it's a hurricane
