==Lyrics==
Here you are again 
Another stupid party again 
A celebration for nothing

Your eyes are following 
The kings and the queens of the zoo 
Immune in their black clothing 
They let the world down

And they let you go 
Please don't go home now 
Home is a place to rob 
Home is alone in the mob 
Home is an unheard sob

Jenny don't go home now 
Please don't you go home now

Here you are again 
Another stupid party again 
Everyone here thinks that when they die 
You will be there to let them in 
Jenny don't go 
Please don't go home now
