Going to a party, going there alone now
Been there for a minute, time to get my phone out
I don't feel like talking, I don't want to hug you
Don't want stupid questions about what I've been up to
Then all of a sudden from over my shoulder
Someone starts to yell the word "shot" over and over
I guess it couldn't hurt to have some liquid courage
From that point on, it's like someone flipped a switch
When I get drunk, I'm the life of the party
Everybody loves me at the party
I'm antisocial until I hang out with Baccardi
'Cause when I get drunk, I'm the life of the party
When I'm near a girl, get an obvious erection
All I have to talk about is my bug collection
But fill me up with Jack and I'll stop being sheepish
Later I'll be doing shots out of her cleavage
Beer pong in the backyard, I'm so bad at those games
Half a cup of Everclear, just call me LeBron James
Taking all my clothes off 'cause I'm going streaking
Everybody's watching, god it's good to be king
When I get drunk, I'm the life of the party
I'm the Grand Poo-bah of the party
Running 'round and drawing on
Sleeping people with a Sharpie
Yes, when I get drunk, I'm the life of the party
Making out with three girls in the closet
And I haven't got a clue who they are
Found a guitar on the back porch
Now I'm playing "Wonderwall" for everyone
And the entire party is cheering
Even though I can't play fucking guitar
Wake up in the morning, having trouble pissing
Got a splitting headache and my wallet's missing
Dried, encrusted vomit sticking onto my face
Also it appears that I'm handcuffed to the staircase
Got a bunch of tickets, also a citation
Parking in the pool must be a violation
Teeth have all been knocked out, ears are full of bird shit
But I have to say it was totally worth it
'Cause when I got drunk, I was the life of the party
I was more or less like Jesus at the party
Even though I feel like I've been run over by an RV
When I got drunk, I dominated that party
Jeez, that's so loud
Could you turn it down?
Ah, much better
