I wrote a song in Spanish that was supposed to be humorous and it was also supposed to be sung mostly in falsetto. My daughter didn't like the lyrics or the excessive amount of falsetto but said she thought the melody was good so I wrote a new set of lyrics, this time, in English.

EVERYBODY’S COMING TO THE PARTY
Michael Dyer
© 2006

Everybody’s comin’, to the party,
dancin’ and ravin’ and drinkin’ so hearty.
Everybody’s left their cares behind,
everybody’s lookin’, oh, so fine.
Tap is gonna flow, like an endless tide,
with everybody dancin’ at their side.
Bands are gonna play, throughout the day,
way into the night, which is more than Ok.

When everybody yells “hey!” It’s time to join in the fray.

Now is the time to scream and play. Now is the time to go astray.
Now is the moment to be beguiled. Follow the scent into the wild.

I’m with my baby, movin’ so crazy.
The beat is gettin’ to me. My mind is getting’ hazy.
Sex n’ drugs and rock n’ roll is what they hate,
but the rave is now and now it’s too late.
Tap is gonna flow, like an endless tide,
with everybody dancin’ at their side.
Bands are gonna play, throughout the day,
way into the night, … more than Ok.

When everybody yells “hey!” It’s time to join in the fray.

Now is the time to scream and play. Now is the time to go astray.
Now is the moment to be beguiled. Time to descend into the wild.

Nobody can party, as hard as Marty, and nobody can dance, as wild as Nance.
Nobody can drink, as much as Pinky, and nobody can sing as bad as ol’ Bing.
Hey! hey!,… hey! yaeh,… hey! hey!, … hey! yaeh!
Tap is gonna flow, like an endless tide,
with everybody dancin’ at their side.
Hey! hey!,… hey! yaeh!
