My Parties Lyrics - Mark Knopfler

Well this is my back yard - my back gate 

I hate to start my parties late 

Here's the party cart - ain't that great? 

That ain't the best part baby - just wait 

That's a genuine weathervane - it moves with the breeze 

Portable hammock honey - who needs trees 

It's casual entertaining - we aim to please 

At my parties 

Check out the shingles - it's brand new 

Excuse me while I mingle - hi, how are you 

Hey everybody - let me give you a toast 

This one's for me - the host with the most

It's getting a trifle colder - step inside my home 

That's a brass toilet tissue holder with it's own telephone 

That's a musical doorbell - it don't ring, I ain't kiddin' 

It plays america the beautiful and tie a yellow ribbon 

Boy, this punch is a trip - it's o.k. in my book 

Here, take a sip - maybe a little heavy on the fruit 

Ah, here comes the dip - you may kiss the cook 

Let me show you honey - it's easy - look 

You take a fork and spike 'em - say, did you try these? 

So glad you like 'em - the secret's in the cheese 

It's casual entertaining - we aim to please 

At my parties

Now don't talk to me about the polar bear 

Don't talk to me about the ozone layer 

Ain't so much of anything these days, even the air 

They're running out of rhinos - what do I care? 

Let's hear it for the dolphin - let's hear it for the trees 

Ain't runnin' out of nothin' in my deep freeze 

It's casual entertaining - we aim to please 

At my parties
