Chorus
We feel good
We feel great
We are young, dumb, drunk and always late
So without us
You can get started
But weโ€™re the life life life of the party
Oh oh oh oh oh
Weโ€™re the life life life of the party
Oh oh oh oh oh
Weโ€™re the life life life of the party

Vers
Armwrestler
Beerpong
Crossdressing
shots strong
Kissing in the corner
the police is at the door




and now the dj is playing louder
at the pool is where the crowd is
