Final Party of the 21st Century

My arms are holding a ruby
 My head is rumbling like Siberia Express
 Can't remember what I'm here for
 Or what I've done the night before
 I've got a box in my pocket
 With a mystic text and joyride spice
 I read the note as I walk out the door:
 "Meet us at the gate to Metropolis"

 Rather confused I continue
 To walk out the door in the house I am in
 Can't believe what my eyes see
 This looks like 'nam in 73
 This place is trashed pretty bad
 My car is a wreck and the neighbour's cat is on fire
 The street starts to shake
 As parts of the night appear in my mind

 Hey! Scream with us
 Hey! Dance with us
 Hey! The rushes of joy
 Blinding lights

 Hey! Scream with us
 Hey! Dance with us
 Hey! The rushes of joy
 Blinding lights

 As I walk down the road
 People seem tense and crammed with fear
 I stop to ask what's going on
 When a shiny girl breaks my world with her words:
 You know last night might have been
 The final party of the 21st century
 The oceans are black
 And tonight we execute the unpleasant truth

 Hey! Scream with us
 Hey! Dance with us
 Hey! The rushes of joy
 Blinding lights

 Hey! Scream with us
 Hey! Dance with us
 Hey! The rushes of joy
 Blinding lights

 Hey! Scream with us
 Hey! Dance with us
 Hey! The rushes of joy
 Blinding lights enlightens my mind

 The visions are getting clearer now
 We feared to climb the walls at the gates to our future
 But realised that it was only the fear we feared
 Now it's us against the world
 And we are getting higher and higher and higher and higher and higher and higher and higher and higher

 Hey! Scream with us
 Hey! Dance with us
 Hey! The rushes of joy
 Blinding light
