People's Parties - Joni Mitchell
All the people at this party,
they've got a lot of style

They've got stamps of many countries,
they've got passport smiles
Some are friendly, some are cutting,
some are watching it from the wings
Some are standing in the center,
giving to get something

Photo Beauty gets attention,

then her eye paint's running down
She's got a rose in her teeth
and a lampshade crown
One minute she's so happy,
then she's crying on someone's knee
Saying, laughing and crying,
you know it's the same release

I told you when I met you I was crazy,
cry for us all Beauty
Cry for Eddie in the corner,
thinking he's nobody
And Jack behind his joker
and stone-cold Grace behind her fan
And me in my frightened silence,
thinking I don't understand

I feel like I am sleeping,
can you wake me?

You seem to have a broader sensibility

I'm just living on nerves and feelings
with a weak and a lazy mind

And coming to peoples parties
fumbling deaf, dumb and blind

I wish I had more sense of humor,
keeping the sadness at bay
Throwing the lightness on these things
Laughing it all away,

laughing it all away

Laughing it all away,

laughing it all away
