I’ve been noticing
You’ve been hittin’ on every man in the room
Now you’re workin’ on mine
And it’s time we did some talkin’, me and you, oh, yeah

I guess you didn’t read the invitation
Carefully
Let me tell you how the invitation reads
This party is strictly

B.Y.O.B.
That means “Bring your own baby”
B.Y.O.B.
That means “Bring your own guy”

B.Y.O.B.
That means “Bring your own baby”
B.Y.O.B.
Don’t try to take away mine

You come struttin’ in
Actin’ like you’re the best thing happenin’ tonight {La-la-la-la}, oh, yeah {La-la-la-la}
Well, you better think again
If you think you can leave with any man that you like {La-la-la-la}, la-la-la {La-la-la-la}

The man is stayin’ here
‘Cause he’s in love with me
The one you’re lookin’ for this ain’t the place to be
This party is strictly

B.Y.O.B. (Oh, yeah, ho)
That means “Bring your own baby”
B.Y.O.B. (Oh, yeah, ho)
That means “Bring your own guy”

B.Y.O.B. (Yeah, oh, ho)
That means “Bring your own baby”
B.Y.O.B. (Yeah)
Don’t try to take away mine

This party is strictly

B.Y.O.B. (Oh, yeah, oh)
That means “Bring your own baby”
B.Y.O.B. (Hey, hey, yeah)
That means “Bring your own guy”

Yeah, uh-huh
That means “Bring your own baby”
B.Y.O.B. (Yeah)
Don’t try to take away mine

No-no-no-no-no-no
Bring your own baby
B.Y.O.B. (Yeah)
That means “Bring your own guy”

B.Y.O.B.
