Come to a Party Lyrics by Pasek & Paul

Dogfight (Original Cast Recording)

2013

[BIRDLACE, spoken]
Well, I better shove off soon. I gotta get to a party
Say, maybe you'd like to go with me
[ROSE, spoken]
A party?
Oh well, I—
[BIRDLACE, spoken]
If you don't wanna go, just say so
[ROSE, spoken]
Well—it's just—I mean, I just met you
[BIRDLACE]
Well, you know my birthday now
Showed you my middle name
See, I'm an open book, have a look
This ain't no pickup game
I heard your pretty voice
Then we saw eye to eye
On all that music stuff, not on fluff
We didn't have to try
Now isn't that rare?
That kind of connection
So why not come to a party with me?
Why not come to this party?
A five piece band
I'll take your hand, Rose
And twirl you around
Buy you a drink
Don't stop to think
Say "Yes"
Come to a party with me
Just say "Yes"
[ROSE, spoken]
I dunno, Eddie
[BIRDLACE, spoken]
My old man's always saying, you can't steal second base with your foot on first. Sometimes you gotta gamble, Rose. You can bet on me
(sung)
Born in Buffalo
To humble Christian folks
My old man raised me right, real polite
No tellin' dirty jokes
A Wallly Cleaver type
Ate every brussels sprout
My mama's pride 'n joy, golden boy
Your av'rage Eagle Scout
Now look in these eyes
They ain't gonna hurt you
So why not come to this party with me?
C'mon, it's just a party
A great excuse
To cut it loose, Rose
And do whatcha feel
(spoken)
Hey
(sung)
Just for a night
No holdin' tight
Let go
Let's go
Come to a party with me
(spoken)
Gonna be a real nice time, c'mon, whaddaya say?
[ROSE]
If I go
Well, ya know
Ma would be here on her own
She would die
I could lie
I couldn't lie to my—
If I go
She would know
Look, I'm not ready
We're closing
And Eddie
I've still gotta work
C'mon don't be a jerk
Give it back, Eddie stop!
Look, I still gotta mop
Plus I don't really drink
See I really don't think I can come
[BIRDLACE]
Come to this party with me
Look, you can't miss this party
[ROSE]
I can't just get up and go
[BIRDLACE]
You'll meet my friends
And when it ends, Rose
I'll race ya right home
[ROSE]
Mama needs me around
[BIRDLACE]
Or why cap the night?
We'll go grab a bite
[ROSE]
I'd like to, but I...
[BIRDLACE]
Table for two
Just me and you
(Eddie, c'mon)
Candles and wine
(I got work to do! Please!)
Hands intertwine—
[MAMA]
Rose!
It's closing time now. Better run along
[BIRDLACE]
You'll miss out on one helluva time
Should be one rousin' party
Well, I'm glad we met
I gotta get, Rose
But gosh you seem swell
Still, it's a shame I thought
If you came, who knows
Maybe we coulda—
(spoken)
Have a good night now
[ROSE, spoken]
Eddie, wait! I'm going with you, okay?
Just lemme run upstairs and change
[BIRDLACE, spoken]
Okay!
[ROSE, spoken]
Okay!
[BIRDLACE]
What a gem
What a pick in a pinch
What a girl for this party
You'll waltz her in
You're set to win
Once ya twirl her around
She'll be a smash
Score ya some cash
Off to a party with you
