1999 (7" Mono Promo-Only Edit) Lyrics by Prince

1999 (Super Deluxe Edition)

2019

[Verse 1: Prince, (Lisa), Dez, (All)]
(I was dreamin' when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray)
But when I woke up this morning
I could have sworn it was judgement day
The sky was all purple
There were people runnin’ everywhere
(Tryin' to run from the destruction
And you know I didn't even care)
[Chorus: Prince (All)]
’Cause they say...
(2000 zero zero party over oops out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999)
[Verse 2: Prince, (Lisa), Dez, (All)]
(I was dreamin' when I wrote this
So sue me if I go too fast)
But life is just a party
And parties weren't meant to last
War is all around us
My mind says prepare to fight
(So if I gotta die
I'm gonna listen to my body tonight)
Yeah
[Chorus: Prince (All)]
'Cause they say...
(2000 zero zero party over oops out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it’s 1999)
[Verse 3: Prince, (Lisa), Dez, (All)]
Lemme tell ya somethin’...
(If you didn't come to party
Don’t bother knockin' on my door)
(I got a lion in my pocket
And baby he's ready to roar)
Everybody's got a bomb
We could all die any day, Oh
(But before I’ll let that happen
I'll dance my life away)
[Chorus: Prince (All)]
'Cause they say...
(2000 zero zero party over oops out of time)
We're runnin' outta time
(So Tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999)
So tonight we gonna, we gonna...Ow!
Say it one more time
(2000 zero zero party over oops out of time)
No, no...
(Tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999)
So tonight we gonna, we gonna...Woo!
[Outro: Prince, (Lisa), (All)]
Yeah, 1999 1999
Don'tcha wanna go? 1999
Don'tcha wanna go? 1999
We could all die any day1999
I don't wanna die
I'd rather dance my life away
