B-52's, The - Party Out Of Bounds Lyrics






SUPRIIIIIIZE! PAAAAAARTY!
Yeah, we just thought we'd drop in!
Where's your icebox?
Where's the punch?
Ew, house-a-tosis!

Who's to blame when parties really get out of hand?
Who's to blame when they get poorly planned?
Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoooo-ooooooooo.

Crashers get bombed, slobs make a mess.
Ya know sometimes they'll even ruin your wife's dress.
Crashers getttin' bombed. (Who's to blame?)
Can you pull it back in line?
Can you salvage it in time?

What can you do to save a party?
Parcheesi? Charades? A spur-of-the-moment
Scavenger hunt, or Queen of the Nile? (WOOOOOOOOOOH!)
Who turned out the lights! (WOOOOOOOOOOH!)

Bombed, crashers gettin' bombed
crashers gettin' bombed, bombed, bombed, bombed, well who's to blame?

Who's to blame when situations degenerate?
Disgusting things you'd never anticipate?
Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoooo-ooooooooo.

People get sick, they play the wrong games.
Ya know, it can ruin your name!
Crashers gettin' bombed. (Who's to blame?)
Can you pull it back in line?
Can you salvage it in time?

WOOOOOOOOOOOH!
It shouldn't be difficult!
Try not to condemn!
O.K. Who ordered pizza?
I'll be tactful when making the rounds
Be tactful when making the rounds
and maybeee you can save a parteeee.

Party gone out of bounds!
Gone out of bounds!
Party gone out of bounds!
Gone out of bounds!

    Hey Sam and so many others awesome comment couldn't say it better never repeated were they never duplicated was in my late teens when they came on the scene saw them in the early 80s and Downtown West Palm Beach West Palm auditorium not one person set down the whole show what a dance party talk about fun!!! We were just a bunch of young surf bums if I'm not mistaken the in thing for a lot of us to do was wear our surf britches with cowboy boots to their show!!! LOL I guess we were trying to blend or dress appropriately for the Punk phunk Cosmic thing that they were!!!!! Man where those days I'm getting many reflections, and as one commenter on another site on the B-52 said it seems all we did is cruise around the weekends or get out of town things were so much simpler and quieter then played back excetera instead of nowadays everybody's running around like a chicken with their head cut off going nowhere👍👍👍👍 just like others have said they were so simple the music itself the structure was so so simple but yet so incredible truly talented with their own unique style and sound to say the least rock on B-52's peace folks out!!🙏 👍👍👍👊✌

  31. A.... G....

    I love this song. Thanks to bands as the B-52's we had a great 80's in Spain

  32. S.... D....

    So, I'm heading up to the cabin on a Friday night & the alternative radio from Minneapolis plays this and starts gushing about the great, underrarated, guitar workbook by Ricky Wilson, was great to hear.

    S.... D....

    Yes, nice to hear that. . . Sadly, the distinctly amazing guitar work of Ricky Wilson has been underrated for decades now.

    S.... D....

    I made a few guitar tabs for B-52s songs now, maybe he'll get a bit more popularity.

    S.... D....

    RIP Ricky

  37. K.... R....

    ...WHOSE TO BLAAAAAAAAME?

    K.... R....

    +Kenneth Robinson ....where's your ice box?

  38. L.... 4....

    Great B-52's before that Love Shack crap fest. Who's to blame when situations degenerate?

    L.... 4....

    Frankly, none of their post-Wild Planet material's the same including the 2.5 albums made before Ricky's passing. Bouncing off the Satellites isn't too far off musically from Cosmic Thing.

    L.... 4....

    The first 2 albums are truly jewels, magnificient, Mesopotamia was failed experimentation, Whammy is only regular, Bouncing off describe a no direction group and with Cosmic they became another band of the heap, isn't casualty that the first 2 albums get into the list of the best rock albums in history in differente reviews, the sound was art, was original, was different, the rest is just a little bit of it

    L.... 4....

    @and what? I agree. Mesopotamia and Whammy have elements of the original band (Between the two, Mesopotamia's the easier listen for me; "Big Bird" is for the most part a brain fog inducing mess to me though I heard a pre-Whammy live version which was OK) but BOTS seems to have lost most of its original recipe, BOTS is a mix of just a little early B-52s with what was emerging on the horizon (Cosmic Thing) and there are two solo material songs that Fred and Kate wrote (Juicy Jungle and Wig) then Ricky died while they were working on the album; speaking of which, between the lyrics to "Girl From Ipanema" and "Ain't it a Shame" I swear it's like they knew subconsciously that Ricky was dying.

    L.... 4....

    On Funplex they refound some of their form.

    L.... 4....

    ArtemiaSalina Ricky Wilson was the visionary..architect..when he died..it was over

  39. M.... L....

    Where's your icebox?

    M.... L....
