about

As the second act begins, Marnie and Buddy bemoan the fact that the party seems to have become seriously derailed. All their friends are more interested in drama than getting crunk with them.
So they invent their own games to reignite the fun of the party.

lyrics

MARNIE:
I came here for one reason.
I wanted to get off my face,
Shot for shot at my own pace 'til I can't stand upright.

BUDDY:
Right.
I came here for one reason too.
Pull a girl and try my luck.
Find a room where we can..

MARNIE:
Fuck.
Buddy, what went wrong tonight?

The party had such promise, I think it was just kicking off.
I'd done some lines with Frank and Raff, then,
suddenly we're out of smirnoff...

BUDDY:
Blame it on the booze,
Blame it on the hooch,
But I think this happened partially because of you.

BOTH:
Why can't I bite my tongue?
Why can't I clench my teeth and lock my jaw?
And say no more?
Have all my secrets keep, open-mouthed and words will seep.
Come undone.
Why can't I bite my tongue?

BUDDY:
The party's looking desperate, it's time to raise the roof!
But how are we gonna do that?

MARNIE:
The answer's all around you!

Keepers finders let's all get blinded.
Keepers finders let's all get blinded.

Some of this, more of that.
Hey Buddy, guess what?
You're it!

It's time to raise the cup, it's time to drink it up.

BOTH:
Why can't I bite my tongue?
Why can't I clench my teeth and lock my jaw?
And say no more?
Have all my secrets keep, open-mouthed and words will seep.
Come undone.
Why can't I bite my tongue?
Why can't I bite my tongue?

MARNIE:
Why won't you bite my...
