Party
The Soap Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Roll the dice step outside
See the world through Jaded eyes
Fuck around smoke cigarettes
Live our lives with our regrets
Stabbing looting shoot everyone
Donald Trump gave my daddy a gun
I don’t care and neither do you
What on earth are we to do
The world is crashing falling down today

Stop your pretending the world is ending lets all party in hell
Stop your pretending the world is ending two dudes making out
Stop your pretending the world is ending the devils come down himself
Stop your pretending oh stop your pretending stop your pretending now

Konnici wa hajimemashte
Ware wa Nippon o aishu sekai no owari
It's hard to see on your colour tv
When everything's black and white
Some are crazy some are blind
Others are lost in their own minds
Drink till we’re drunk we don’t give a fuck no way

Stop your pretending the world is ending lets all party in hell
Stop your pretending the world is ending two dudes making out
Stop your pretending the world is ending the devils come down himself
Stop your pretending oh stop your pretending stop your pretending now

Now, no ones gonna save you now
Lets all party in hell

Hey, hey, hey on the edge I'm slipping falling far away
There are no more candles left to flame
Underneath it's waiting
He clocks have all been bled
You were never living always dead
The devil was your saviour
God was but a friend
You will never change you’re born to end

Hey its a party
All those politician whangs
They're fucking you and you don't even give a shit
You know what your kids are in crack

Stop your pretending the world is ending lets all party in hell
Stop your pretending the world is ending two dudes making out
Stop your pretending the world is ending the devils come down himself
Stop your pretending oh stop your pretending stop your pretending now

Now no ones gonna save you now
Lets all party in hell
No ones gonna save you now




Might as well party in hell
No ones gonna save you now

Overall Meaning

The Soap's song "Party" is a commentary on the state of the world as seen through jaded eyes. The chorus urges listeners to "stop pretending" that the world is not coming to an end and instead, embrace a call to party like it's the end of the world in hell. The opening lines suggest that the world is chaotic and unpredictable, and people often act out of character after rolling the dice. The state of despair in the world is likened to the colorless, black-and-white world seen on old television sets. The next few lines make it clear that despite the chaos and destruction, people continue to lead their lives full of regrets, indulging in vices like smoking cigarettes and drinking to excess.


The lyrics take a political turn when the song mentions Donald Trump giving the singer's father a gun. The political reference creates a narrative of a world where politicians make rash decisions, causing people to pick up guns and act violently without consequence. The lyrics capture the sense of despondency felt by many people who feel powerless to stop the collapse of society as we know it. Lastly, the lyrics suggest that people have given up on creating meaningful change, and instead, choose to live in a permanent state of numbness by partying and indulging in their vices until the end of the world.

This scene was pretty sad. Private Pyle was probably forced to be in the marines and probably didn’t want to go. But after all the screw ups, the others punished him. But at least joker was the only one to sympathize with him.







Edit: I recognize my mistake this was the marines not the army.

The fact that his unit turned against him hurts more than the soap.

Diego Contreras

they just gave him the right motivation

Steven Skotarczak

This has actually happened to some in real life.

Brian Lamar

But it hurt so good

I remember seeing this on opening day. The theater was packed and there was total silence when this scene ended. I had a knot in my stomach for a few minutes after it.

Spencer Hensley

I could imagine not an easy scene to watch. Kubrick had that ability to shoot tough scenes like this that stayed in your mind forever.

Chief Scheider

Exactly. Another example is the scene in Clockwork Orange where Alex is beaten while his head is held underwater in the trough.

Spencer Hensley

@Chief Scheider Absolutely. Clockwork Orange visually is one of the most amazing looking movies I have ever seen but yes lots of disturbing imagery that sticks in your mind from it.

Wolf King 2005

@Chief Scheider What stayed in MY mind was the old laughing woman in the bath tub from The Shining.
