Original Lyrics:

Let's get a party going

Story about this misheard lyric by: Nick Steriovski

I first saw this band on Saturday Night Live, and due to the bad mics that the band had, there was a lot of misheard lyrics. Also, due to their raspy singing, I couldn't even understand a word they said. Only the lyrics 'Let's Get a Bodyguard' which I later figured out really was 'Let's Get a Party Going'

Repetitive Song Lyrics:

"Party Hard"

The Repetitive Lyrics:

You, you work all night (all night)
And when you work you don't feel all right
And we, we can't stop feeling all right (all right)
And everything is all right

Why They're Repetitive:

All right, then (how ironic)...so I take it things are 'all right'? It's bad enough having to hear two words, practically, being rhymed with one another throughout the song but constantly hearing 'all right' being yelled at you through the speakers really does take the urine.
