Whenever somebody says, "I bet you are a lot of fun at parties," it is always a dumb person scoffing at something above their intellectual paygrade. And I always take a moment to be grateful that I do not attend the sort of parties that they do, because that sounds like a nightmarish room of unhinged stupidity. And they probably all go apeshit dancing to this song when it comes on.
The Tommy James and the Shondells original version isn't quite as bad. It isn't totally hyper-saturated with background vocals and doesn't have the moronic sneering voice of Billy Idol. But it ain't good. It is still a dumb song with dumb lyrics about nothing. A party anthem for people celebrating the intellectual decline of domesticated homo sapiens.
This song shows up at a party wearing a shirt which reads: We've come, we're dumb, get used of it.
