Текст песни 1999 - Live - Prince

Are you ready?
Come on, somebody
Say "oow"

I was dreaming when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray

Woke up this morning
Could've sworn it was judgment day

The sky was all purple
There were people running everywhere

Trying to run from the destruction
You know I didn't even care, ah

Say, say, 2000, zero-zero, party over, oops, out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999

Ohh, say
Baby, when I wrote this
So sue me if I go too fast

Life was just a party
And parties weren't meant to last

War is all around us
My mind says prepare to fight

So if gotta die
I'm gonna listen to my body tonight, yeah

They say, 2000, zero-zero, party over, oops, out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999 (ninety-nine)

Say one more time, 2000, zero-zero, party over, oops, out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999 (I'm gonna, we gonna, oh yeah)

1999
Tokyo, you say
1999
We can hold on in a day (1999)
I don't wanna die, rather dance my life away (1999)
Listen what I'm trying to say, what y'all wanna do tonight?

Party (put your hands up in the air, now)
Party (come on people, calm me down)
Party (everybody do tell me to calm me down)
Party (hey, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Party (I've got a lion in my pocket, yeah)
Party (her name is Woolf Virginia, I'm might say)
Party (I can't hear you Tokyo, sing)

Wooh, come on, you sing (party)
Uh, tell me what you wanna do (party)
Wooh, tell me what you wanna do (party)
One more, come on (party)

Mommy, why does everybody have a bomb?
Uh, alright, I'm in
Mommy, why does everybody have a bomb? (ah, ah, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, yeah)
Wooh

Mommy, why does everybody have a bomb?
Alright, I'm in
Mommy, why does everybody have a bomb? (wooh)
Tokyo, ah
