Fa#m
 Heard of a van that is laaded with weapons
Packed up and ready to go
Heard of some gravesites, out by the highway
A place where nobody knows
The sound of gunfire, off in the distance
I'm getting used to it now
Lived in Brownstone, lived in the Ghetto
I've lived all over this town

Do#
 This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
This ain't no fooling arond
No time for dancing, or lovey dovey
I ain't got time for that now

Fa#m
 Transmit the message to the receiver
Hope for an answer someday
I got three passports, a couple of visas
You don't even know my real name
High on a hillside the trucks are loading
Everything's ready to roll
Sleep in the daytime, work in nightime
I might not ever get home

Do#
 This ain't no party, this ain't no dico, this ain't no fooling around
This ain't the Mudd Club, or CBGB
I ain't got time for tha now

(intro)

Fa#m
 Heard about Houstoun?
Heard about Detroit?
Heard about Pittsburgh, P.A.?
You've got to learn not to stand by the window
Somebody see you up there
I've gor some groveries
Some peanut butter
To last couple of days
But I ain't got no speakers
Ain't got no headphones
Ain't got no records to play

Do#
 Why go to college, to highschool?
Do#                           Do#4
 It will be different this time
Do#                     Do#4
 Can't write a letter,  can't send a postcard
Do#
 I can write nothing at all
Do#                    Do#4
 This ain't no party,   this ain't no disco
Do#                       Do#4
 This ain't no fooling around
Do#
 I'd like to kiss you, I'd love to  you
Do#
 I ain't got time for that now.
