Got it in the mail one morning
there was no return address
just my name in gold-leaf on the front
There was no time or location
there was really no info at all
no date, no place, no time, no RSVP
But it said
"You are invited
by anyone to do anything.
You are invited for all time."
Didn't think much about it
it seemed like a really dumb joke
but later that week it was Friday once again
So I took it down to a disco
that wouldn't have me in a million years
I flashed it once and I was inside with a drink
I really didn't stay too long there
'cuz No one was having much fun
and made my way to a party all the way across town
thrown by the friend of an ex-thing
wasn't sure if I should go
but when I got up in the place there were smiles all up and down
Grabbed my ex in the kitchen
told her I was sorry I came
but she looked at me with a blank smile and said,
"You are invited
by anyone to do anything.
You are invited for all time.
You are so needed.
If you really want to go
you are invited for all time."
I headed for home kind of early
the party wasn't all that great
saw my neighbor out crying on his front porch
Stopped to see what his deal was
didn't catch much through the sobs
something about a party and he didn't go
Thought about it for a second
with the invite in my hands
I threw it down at his feet and I said
"You are invited
by anyone to do anything.
You are invited for all time.
You are so needed.
If you really want to go
you are invited for all time."
