Prayin' For A Party

(Ron & Russell Mael)
Saturday nite and time that I go to bed
Daddy goodnite and momma goodnite, it's ten
Don't forget, son, to pray
Anything, dad, you say
I'm gonna pray 'til both my knees are red

Prayin' for a party, C'mon Lord, C'mon Lord
Prayin' for a party

All of my friends are prayin' like prayin' fools
Send us a little jive and we'll be all right
What do we have to do
What do we have to do
What do we have to do, Lord, to get on through

Chorus

I just can't wait no more
I'm runnin' out that door
God helps those who help themselves to a real good time

Chorus
