Blossom Caldarone – House Party No. 1 lyrics

[Verse 1]
You want to grow up too fast
It's a race to see who is left last
From lemons to liquor to loving each figure
You're constantly wired up the wrong way
You'll be dead in a year if I wait one more day

[Chorus]
You're a rebel without a cause
Your mother thinks you're innocent
But you've raised a pack of drifting delinquents
You're a rebel without a cause
Your mother thinks you're innocent
Say it's just some fun
Not how I describe house party number one

[Verse 2]
Your fan club arrived at quarter to eight
Grin on each face no one was late
A lady upstairs with a duvet a pillow
Save it 'till the end for a cry and wallow
The bowles where empty the beds where emptier
Our slates where wiped clean
We had booked our tickets on a long adventure
Midnight walk through the city
I was being a drifter

[Chorus]
You're a rebel without a cause
Your mother thinks you're innocent
But you've raised a pack of drifting delinquents
You're a rebel without a cause
Your mother thinks you're innocent
Say it's just some fun
Not how I describe house party number one

[Bridge]
A mother came upstairs guilt in her mind
"Babe I've come to check and to see what I'll find"
Take my money and not my time
Surely there's something you can buy
It smells quite sweet, not the candyfloss kind
Honey please say what's going on in you mind
I've tried to buy addresses
Please just get the message

[Chorus]
You're a rebel without a cause
Your mother thinks you're innocent
But you've raised a pack of drifting delinquents
You're a rebel without a cause
Your mother thinks you're innocent
Say it's just some fun
Not how I describe house party number one
