The Party Song
Excerpt from Outside the Circle
By Kevin Hubschman
Don’t forget the party’s on, we’ll see you tonight
Don’t forget to bring along the radio
Cruisin’ ‘round it’s summertime I’m feelin’ alright
Round up the boys ‘cause it’s time to go
It’s a party, it’s a party, it’s a party
It’s a rock and roll party and the music is loud
Turn up that rockin’ stereo
Now we’re at the party and we’re getting’ high
All our cares and troubles drift away
Everyone is watchin’ as we cut the lines
When we party we party all the way
It’s a party, it’s a party, it’s a party
It’s a rock and roll party and the music is loud
Turn up that rockin’ stereo
Crashin’ through the backyard fence a crosstown gang
Lookin’ to start a fight
The boys and I are way too high to feel any pain
And there’s sure to be blood rainin’ down tonight
It’s a party, it’s a party, it’s a party
It’s a rock and roll party goin’ out of control
Time to turn off that rockin’ radio
Sirens scream into the night, we’re on the run
Hidin’ ‘neath the pale moonlight
Even though the party had been real good fun
We don’t wanna spend no time in jail
It was a rock and roll party, everybody party

About the Book
Outside the Circle is a collection of songs and poems I’ve written and composed through the decades. It’s mostly dark, but for those willing to look beyond my personal demons, there can hopefully be found both flashes of resilience and rays of hope.
The book is dedicated first and foremost to my wife, Trish, who is a fantastic author in her own “write.” Secondly, it is dedicated to everyone who feels bullied, feels different, feels alone, feels friendless, feels hopeless, and feels “outside the circle.” The words “don’t judge a book by its cover” spring to mind as apropos.
“Outside the Circle”
Outside the circle I can’t see the sun
Outside the circle I don’t know anyone
Outside the circle time is on the run
Outside the circle is not much fun
Inside the circle is a white–noise crowd
Inside the circle is fashionably loud
Inside the circle there are people with guns
Inside the circle is a lot of fun

Anyhow, it’s a neat song.
