מילים לשיר 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 watching it from the wings
Some are cutting
Some are friendly
Some are standing in the centre
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 Iampshade 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 stoneAnd me in my frightened silence
And Jack behind his joker
Thinking I don't understand
I feel like I'm sleeping Can you wake me
I'm just living on nerves and feelings
You seem to have a broader sensibility
And coming to peoples parties
With a weak and a lazy mind
Fumbling deaf dumb and blind I wish I had more sense ot humor
Keeping the sadness at bay
Throwing the lightness on these things
Laughing it all away
Laughing it alI away
Laughing it all away.
