Verse 1<\/p>\n
I finish work late on a Friday
\nWhen my phone vibrates with a text from my mate
\nHe\u2019s like \u201cSafe, it\u2019s the weekend, what you up to?\u201d
\nI replied \u201cNot much\u201d, \u201cWell there\u2019s a night that you should come to\u201d
\nIt\u2019s a new thing that I\u2019ve only just discovered
\nWhere everybody goes to have fun with one another
\nAnd if you\u2019ve got a friend who wants to come then you should bring one
\nI asked what kind of party is it and he said \u201cA Swing one\u201d
\nI was like \u201cWhat?\u201d – I just could not believe it
\nWhen I found out the secret life that he was leading
\nI thought I knew this guy well, so it was quite shocking
\nTo find out now that he\u2019s into wife swapping
\nHe said \u201cLook here, don\u2019t knock it til you\u2019ve tried it
\nCome and see it for yourself and be open minded\u201d
\nMy first reaction was to say \u201cHell no!\u201d
\nThen I thought \u201cAh, I might as well give it a go\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Chorus:<\/p>\n
I Swinger\u2019s Party
\nYou can bring a friend to the Swinger\u2019s Party
\nOr make new ones at the Swinger\u2019s Party
\nWe just wanna have fun at the Swinger\u2019s Party<\/p>\n
It\u2019s all love here at the Swinger\u2019s Party
\nYou can get dressed up at the Swinger\u2019s Party
\nOr get messed up at the Swinger\u2019s Party
\nWe just wanna have fun at the Swinger\u2019s Party<\/p>\n
Verse 2:<\/p>\n
I go home to have a quick shower and change
\nThat\u2019s when I realise what kind of commitment I\u2019ve made
\nI mean, don\u2019t get me wrong, I\u2019ve been to some wild parties
\nBut never one with a big bowl full of car keys
\nMy mind starts racing, and my imagination
\nStarts conjuring up images of sordid situations
\nMiddle aged ladies dressed in dominatrix clothes
\nNext to overweight men rocking baby grows
\nI try to shake the image out of my head
\nAnd think \u201cWhat should I wear to this kind of event?\u201d
\nCoz I don\u2019t wanna come across all rude and dismissive
\nBut I also wanna make it clear that I\u2019m off limits
\nEventually I settle on something that seems fitting\u2026
\nA parker jacket, wooly hat, scarf and some mittens
\nI step outside and close the door to my flat
\nTake a deep breath because now there\u2019s no going back<\/p>\n
Verse 3:<\/p>\n
I follow the directions that my mate provided
\nBut when I arrive I find something quite surprising
\nCoz I\u2019d expected some remote location
\nLike a homemade dungeon in someone\u2019s basement
\nBut it was a nightclub, illuminated
\nBy bright lights with bass pulsating through the pavement
\nI thought \u201cDamn, these Swinger types are brazen\u201d
\nBut what I saw inside was even more amazing
\nNormal looking people dancing together
\nIn pinstripes and feathers – not fishnets and leather
\nInstead of perverts and ropey old slappers
\nIt was full of dapper looking chaps and flappers
\nI spot the friend who invited me along
\nWho sees my expression, and asks me the question
\n\u201cIs this what you expected?\u201d and I say \u201cHardly\u2026\u201d
\n\u201cWhat did you think it would be like?\u201d I replied \u201cDon\u2019t ask me\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
