Listening to a metal music prank
That leads straight to the bank
Each grunt and groan took literally
Some tired old rock star's fantasy
Suburbia is such a drag
Bargain nightmares in a bag
Newspapers sell disaster and sin
And when the dust storm comes, they say the Devil rides in
[Chorus]
Party down, eat your friend
B-movie stories never end
Rock the house, shoot your mum
Cheap thrills wrapped up in bubblegum
Get down, burn the cat
The hardcore life is where it's at
Love boat, sub attack
Beware of sudden impact
Burnt-out cases from the neighborhood
Converge one night deep in the wood
The bat from hell arrived that night
To make the picnic outtasite
Satanic rites to a tune they knew well
To make the party rock like hell
Hold tight, the ride begins
Macho men with pimply skin
[Chorus]
Party down, eat your friend
B-movie stories never end
Rock the house, shoot your mum
Cheap thrills wrapped up in bubblegum
Get down, burn the cat
The hardcore life is where it's at
Love boat, sub attack
Beware of sudden impact
[Instrumental break]
Come fly with me, talk to the trees
The dust storm doesn't always please
That's the gamble inside your head
Let's play something else instead
Hide and seek for a shock
I can see right through that rock
Bang, you're dead, the shit is real
Someone's scored a bum deal
[Chorus]
Party down, eat your friend
B-movie stories never end
Rock the house, shoot your mum
Cheap thrills wrapped up in bubblegum
Get down, burn the cat
The hardcore life is where it's at
Love boat, sub attack
Beware of sudden impact
Teenage shrinks are all confused
At the spread of drug abuse
Meanwhile down at the games arcade
The latest candies are displayed
Guess what our kids got really cheap?
The stuff that puts the elephants to sleep
Not paradise but blown to hell
They took their Sabbath tapes as well
[Chorus]
Party down, eat your friend
B-movie stories never end
Rock the house, shoot your mum
Cheap thrills wrapped up in bubblegum
Get down, burn the cat
The hardcore life is where it's at
Love boat, sub attack
Beware of sudden impact
