[Intro] Third floor apartment Music too loud Somebody cooking questionable fajitas And then THEY showed up [Verse 1] Girls from the upstairs party came downstairs mad Hair done perfect and they smelled real bad Like expensive perfume and cigarette smoke One girl laughing at a dumb joke DJ scratching while the ceiling fan shook I spilled cheap beer on a library book One girl wearing leopard print tights Said “you idiots been loud all night” I said “fair point honestly true” Then my friend tried flirting and immediately blew it Said “hey baby you like punk rock jams?” She said “you got mustard all over your hands” [Hook] Girls from the upstairs party Everybody suddenly acting cool Girls from the upstairs party Whole room instantly turned into fools [Verse 2] One girl dancing in a leather jacket spin Another stole the ice directly from my gin My friend flexing with a fake karate stance DJ cut the beat and ruined his chance Kitchen smelled like burnt-up cheese Somebody knocked over the plastic trees One girl smoking out the fire escape side Purple lipstick and dangerous eyes Asked me why my sunglasses indoors I said “bright personality maybe?” She rolled her eyes but she didn’t leave Now I’m feeling strangely optimistic [Verse 3] Bathroom line stretching down the hall One girl drawing mustaches on the wall Tiny denim skirt and combat boots My friend trying too hard in velvet suits DJ scratching with his elbows wild Whole room moving like feral children Neighbor downstairs hitting pipes with a broom Still nobody lowering the boom One girl climbed up onto the kitchen sink Everybody too drunk to think She yelled “play something with a better groove!” Then the whole room suddenly started to move [Bridge] Boom clap boom from the stereo stack One girl yelling “run that record back!” Pizza box towers by the TV glow Hot night sweat and a broken window My friend tried breakdance moves in socks Immediately crashed into a potted box [Verse 4] Sun came up pink through the dirty blinds People asleep in impossible positions One girl wearing somebody else’s coat DJ passed out hugging the remote Kitchen disaster looked legally condemned Still everybody laughing again Girls from the upstairs party gone by dawn Lipstick stains still all over the cups One phone number written onto my arm Pretty sure it melted from the sweat and warmth Whole apartment smelling like smoke and fries Beautiful chaos under morning skies [Outro] Girls from the upstairs party Never learned a single name Girls from the upstairs party Honestly glad they came Girls from the upstairs party Whole night permanently weird Girls from the upstairs party Best bad idea all year
