"I Don't Want to Spoil the Party" Lyrics

by John Lennon and Paul McCartney

As Released by the Beatles (1964)

I don't wanna spoil the party so I'll go
I would hate my disappointment to show
There's nothing for me here so I will disappear
If she turns up while I'm gone please let me know.

I've had a drink or two and I don't care
There's no fun in what I do when she's not there
I wonder what went wrong I've waited far too long
I think I'll take a walk and look for her.

Though tonight she's made me sad
I still love her.
If I find her I'll be glad
I still love her.

I don't wanna spoil the party so I'll go
I would hate my disappointment to show
There's nothing for me here so I will disappear
If she turns up while I'm gone please let me know.

Hey! - wuh!

Though tonight she's made me sad
I still love her.
If I find her I'll be glad
I still love her.

Though I've had a drink or two and I don't care
There's no fun in what I do if she's not there
I wonder what went wrong I've waited far too long
But I think I'll take a walk and look for her.
