I only threw this party for you
Only threw this party for you, for you, for you
I was hopin' you would come through
I was hopin' you would come through, it's true, it's true
Only threw this party for you
I only threw this party for you, for you, for you
I'm about to party on you
Watch me, watch me party on you, yeah
1000 pink balloons
DJ with your favourite tunes
Birthday cake in August
But you were born 19th of June
Champagne pourin' in your mouth
Called your friends from out of town
Got the party bag with the purple pills
And I'm waitin' for you by the window, yeah
Called your digits, but the phone kept ringin'
Wish I knew what you were thinkin', na-na-na
1000 pink balloons
Dancin' on to your favourite tunes
Hope you walk in the party
'Cause I threw the party just for you, like, whoa
I only threw this party for you
Only threw this party for you, for you, for you
I was hopin' you would come through
I was hopin' you would come through, it's true, it's true
Only threw this party for you
I only threw this party for you, for you, for you
I'm about to party on you
Watch me, watch me party on you, yeah
You could watch me pull up on your body
Like it's summer, take my clothes off
In the water, splash around and get you blessed like holy water
I don't know what you were waitin' for
You know that I've been waitin' for you
I only threw this party for you
If you saw my tears, would you touch me?
Kiss me on the mouth, say you love me?
Leave a message, tell me you're sorry
Hit me right back, hit me right back
Why you treatin' me like someone that you never loved?
I only threw this party for you
Only threw this party for you, for you, for you
I was hopin' you would come through
I was hopin' you would come through, it's true, it's true
Only threw this party for you
I only threw this party for you, for you, for you
I'm about to party on you
Watch me, watch me party on you, yeah
I only threw this party for you
Only threw this party for you, for you, for you
I was hopin' you would come through
I was hopin' you would come through, it's true, it's true
Only threw this party for you
I only threw this party for you, for you, for you
I'm about to party on you
Watch me, watch me party on you, yeah
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Come to my party (party on you, party on you, party on)
(Party on you, party on you, party on)
Come to my party (party on you, party on you, party on)
(Party on you, party on you, party on)
All I'm thinkin', all I know is
That I hope you knock on my door
Nervous energy, my heart rate rises higher, higher up
I wish you'd get here, kiss my face
Instead, you're somewhere far away
My nervous energy will stay
I hope you realise one day, uh
(Party on you, party on you, party on)
Come to my party (party on you, party on you, party on)
(Party on you, party on you, party on)
Come to my party (party on you, party on you, party on)
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on (ooh)
Party on you, party on you, party on (ooh)
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on (ooh)
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on (ooh)
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party on you, party on
Party on you, party...
(This one's for the boys)
