It's Party Time
Lisa Germano Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's too much me
And none of the people
I wanna be

9, 99
Pretty good wine
A beautiful time
What I am
Is dreaming of dreams
Of what I was, I could be

My sweetheart
You're sweeter than sweet
And meaner than mean, I love you

It's party time
It's party time
It's party time

All of the good things
In the middle
I leave behind
Unsolved riddles

And I smell like wine
Most of the time
My big red wine

It's party time
It's party time

Know what I mean




I don't mean anything
I don't mean anything

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lisa Germano's song "It's Party Time" are a complex exploration of identity and desire. The opening lines, "It's too much me / And none of the people / I wanna be," suggest a sense of dissatisfaction or disconnection with the self, as if the singer feels trapped in their own identity and longs to become someone else. The repetition of the phrase "It's party time" throughout the song could be interpreted as a way of escaping this sense of self, of losing oneself in the moment and forgetting about all of the problems and uncertainties that come with being alive.


The lines "What I am / Is dreaming of dreams / Of what I was, I could be" suggest that the singer is haunted by their own past and the possibilities that they never pursued. They are constantly thinking about what might have been, what they could have achieved if they had made different choices or taken different risks. The reference to wine throughout the song is interesting because it could be read in different ways. On the one hand, wine is a common party beverage, so it could be seen as a symbol of the singer's desire to escape into the party scene. On the other hand, wine is also associated with sophistication and elegance, so it could be interpreted as a way of expressing the singer's desire to be seen as refined and cultured.


Overall, "It's Party Time" is a lyrically rich song that invites multiple interpretations. It captures the tension between the desire to belong and the desire to be someone else, as well as the paradoxical nature of identity and the ways in which we create ourselves through our choices and experiences.
