Champagne Songtext
von Declan McKenna

(So it is not surprising)
(That some would have us stay where we are a little longer to rest)
(But this city of Houston)
(This country of the United States was not built by those)
(Who waited and rested)

(Not again)
This is just wrong
It′s wrong, wrong, wrong
(Do it again)
The party's done
Done, done, done
They′ve gone and left themselves for dead
Of course they bloody have
Of course I didn't mean what I said
I just wanted them to laugh


Well, I can't deal with your games no more
No more, more, more
(Do it again)
You killed them all, and shouldn′t have
I think God is coming after me
And I got these bloody hands
Well, of course I never mean what I say
I′ve just got a hook to land

You can't celebrate without champagne
Gonna hold my heart up, up, out and away
Dance and celebrate with what′s-her-face
From what's it called, I don′t know, hey

Got the keys
And the cards
In the bars
Gonna make it alright (yeah)

(Do it again)
Gonna dance like we ain't using somebody else′s money tonight
And the gods have left themselves for dead
Tripped and killed the boss
Well, you know I never mean what I say
But I'm sorry for your loss

I know you too well
To curse the man
Curse the matter at hand
And I know you too well to explain
But I told you again and again


You can't celebrate without champagne
I′m gonna hold my heart up, up, out and away
Dance and celebrate with what′s-her-face
From what's it called, I don′t know

Hey, hey it's who you′re meant to be
(You can't celebrate without champagne, hey)
(Hey)
(Without champagne)

As I′ve said so many times
I'll make a drama of it
I'll lose my mind
Relentlessly we′ve tried
Could this be the turning point for my life?

As I′ve said so many times (you can't celebrate without champagne)
Could this be the turning point for my life? (you can′t celebrate without champagne)
So restless we have tried (you can't celebrate without champagne)
Could this be the turning point for my life? (you can′t celebrate without champagne)
