Lyrics Retirement Party - Bob Newhart

Retirement Party

It’s coming from the forest
Where we used to live
Can you hear the laughing?
Coming from the clearing
At the bottom of the hill
(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
Climb the hill and see the creatures
(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
Run about their world
(World party)
How can I say, no?
(No, party)
You know I’ve got to go
(Go, party)
Go to a world party
And tonight I’m going to ask a dolphin
See if you can find a tiger
Whose eyes are still alight
With your little head
In his mouth
Everything’s gonna be alright
I hear there’s going to be a harvest
Where every creature gets a share
Of life and food and light
(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
Unless we learn, we’re the dumbest creatures
(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
That ever walked the world
Are you going?
Yes, we’re going to a world party
Well, how can I say, no?
Yes, we’re going to a world party
You know I’ve got to go Yes, we’re going to a world party
You know, you know, you know, hey
Pa, party
Pa, pa, party
This party’s in the mountains
And in the fields and on the shore
At the bottom of the sea
In the desert
In the marshes
Underground, up your tree
(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
And out in space you can hear the creatures
(Ba, ba, ba, bah)
Sing about their world
Are you going?
Yes, we’re going to a world party
Well, how can I say, no?
Yes, we’re going to a world party
You know I’ve got to go Yes, we’re going to a world party
Yes, we’re going to a world party
Yes, we’re going to a world party
Yes, we’re going to a world party
