Well, I arrived on time
My corduroy suit and me bottle of wine
There were women, wall to wall
It's Saturday night and I wanted them all
Everyone, woo
ย
Sidled up for a dance
I tried a new step and fell in the plants
I told a joke about the Pope
It wasn't as funny as I would've hoped, so listen
Nobody told me she was the daughter of the mayor
I was so embarrassed, I just wished the ground would swallow me up
And accidentally my elbow hit the record player
The rock 'n' roll stopped and everybody just stared (oh no)
Who's gonna take me home?
I'm tired and I wanna go to bed (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Who's gonna take me home?
This party's gone right to my head, listen boy
ย
I didn't worry, not me
Panic ain't in my vocabulary
Smashed beyond reproach
Suddenly, I wanted to take off my clothes
All hell broke loose
I started to take off my trousers and shoes
And so I tried to look cool
I stepped back and fell in the pool
The hostess helped me out and asked for my dismissal
I said I was sorry, but I've been under so much pressure just lately, baby
I felt as popular as a Russian guided missile
The last thing I remember, I left with a girl on a motorbike
I weighed three hundred pounds, what's wrong with that?
Who's gonna take me home?
I'm tired and I wanna go to bed (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Who's gonna take me home?
This party's gone right to my head, to my head
ย
I woke up on the floor
Still in my suit and she told me I snored
I never felt so cheap
I had a good laugh at the size of her feet
Holy Moses, I don't like this single living
I think I'll find me a nice local girl and settle on down, now
With a home and a garden
And a nature quite forgiving
Then again maybe I'll just hang around
Who's gonna take me home?
I'm tired and I wanna go to bed, right now (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Who's gonna take me home?
This party's gone right to my head
To my head
Now who's gonna take me home?
Hey Brian, could you give me a lift 'cause I don't live too far from you, boy?
Mary, c'mon I've known you so long please give me a lift home, oh c'mon
Jim? (somebody take me sober)
Who's gonna take me?
