歌曲名 People's Parties

歌手名 Joni Mitchell

All the people at this party they've got a lot of style

They've got stamps of many countries they've got passport smiles

Some are friendly some are cutting some are watching it from the wings

Some are standing in the center giving to get something

Photo beauty gets attention then her eye paint's running down

She's got a rose in her teeth and a lampshade crown

One minute she's so happy then she's crying on someone's knee

Saying laughing and crying you know it's the same release

I told you when i met you i was crazy cry for us all beauty

Cry for eddie in the corner thinking he's nobody

And jack behind his joker and stone-cold grace behind her fan

And me in my frightened silence thinking i don't understand

I feel like i am sleeping can you wake me

You seem to have a broader sensibility

I'm just living on nerves and feelings with a weak and a lazy mind

And coming to peoples parties fumbling deaf dumb and blind

I wish i had more sense of humor keeping the sadness at bay

Throwing the lightness on these things

Laughing it all away laughing it all away

Laughing it all away laughing it all away
