This song is about ambition, desire, and the excitement of getting lucky at a gala event.

lyrics

Stranger at the Party

Seems to know someone
Smiling at the hostess
Not moving from the punch
Cornering cupcakes

Nodding approval
Snorting news relayed
Hoovering removal
Of the salmon paté

Stranger at the party swallowing bodies
Aiming righteous anger between their legs

She’s come in late
Caught in the rain
Straight to the kitchen
For a plate

Thrice-gifted wine
Making up lost time
“Pass the joint-
Your thumb’s flambéed”

Hostess brings coats
At half-past four
Stains on the floor
Must be the last straw
