People’s Parties Lyrics by Leslie Mendelson

In The Meantime - EP

2020

[Verse 1]
All the people at this party, they've got a lot of style
Saw stamps of many countries, saw passport smiles
Some are friendly, some are cutting
Some are watching them from the wings
Some are standing in the center, giving to get something
[Verse 2]
Photo beauty gets attention and 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 knees
Saying, "Laughing and crying, you know it's the samе release"
[Verse 3]
I told you whеn 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
Stone-cold Grace behind her fan
Me in frightened silence, thinking I don't understand
[Verse 4]
I feel like I'm sleeping, can you wake me?
Seem to have a broader sensibility
I'm just living on nerves and feelings
With a weak and a lazy mind
Coming to people's parties, fumbling deaf, dumb and blind
[Verse 5]
I wish I had more sense of humor, keeping the sadness at bay
Throwing the lightness on these things, laughing it all away
[Outro]
Laughing it all away
Oh, laughing it all away
Oh, laughing it all away
Laughing it all away
