this is how we do

show us off to all your friends

we're the trophy boys from here to if and when

we break and break your dreams of

keeping us a secret. we're the back-pocket believers

we're the locals who went postal

call it treason while you can. i'm just a face for every picture

a smile for your scrap-books

and a story to be told

and told

but i'm

but i'm loving every second

so commemorate this hour

as the last i spend regretting what i have. boys

raise your glasses

girls

shake those. we're the party

you're the people;

let's make this night a classic. we play

you move

we're the party

you're the people

and this is how we

this is how we do. the curtain's rising

i'm forgetting where i've been. i watch the lights go up

on a star without his screen. set it off and sing it back. direction's keeping me on track. but i'll admit

i do it all for the attention. i'm just a face for every picture

a smile for your scrap-books

and a story to be told

and told

but i'm

but i'm loving every second

so commemorate this hour

as the last i spend regretting what i have. boys

raise your glasses

girls

shake those. we're the party

you're the people;

let's make this night a classic. we play

you move

we're the party

you're the people

and this is how we

this is how we do.
