"Swingin Party" is a song written by Paul Westerberg and recorded by his band The Replacements for their fourth studio album Tim (1985). The song is an indie rock and rock and roll ballad with influences from jazz, country and new wave. Lyrically, it portrays the protagonist's "feigned nonchalance".[1] It was well received by music critics, who praised Westerberg's songwriting talent. The song has been covered by other artists, notably Kindness in 2009 and Lorde in 2013.
Wild Wren (Susan Berman) trades New Jersey for New York City, where she hopes to join what's left of the punk rock culture. She spends time hanging out with Paul (Brad Rinn), another young city transplant, but he's too safe for Wren's tastes, which run to narcissistic rockers. She finds one of these in Eric (Richard Hell), who's about to cut a record in Los Angeles. Before long, Wren is planning to accompany Eric when he heads west, but it's soon clear she's put trust in the wrong person.

LYRICS
Bring your own lampshade, somewhere there's a party
Here it's never ending, can't remember when it started
Pass around the lampshade, there'll be plenty enough room in jail
If being alone's a crime, I'm serving forever
Being strong's your kind, I need help here with this feather
If being afraid is a crime, we hang side by side
At the swingin' party down the line
On the prairie pavement losing proposition
Quitting school and going to work and never going fishing
Water all around, never learn how to swim now
If being alone's a crime, I'm serving forever
Being strong's your kind, then I need help here with this feather
If being afraid is a crime, we hang side by side
At the swingin' party down the line
At the swingin' party down the line
Bring your own lampshade, somewhere there's a party
Here it's never ending, can't remember when it started
Pass around the lampshade, there'll be plenty of room in jail
If being alone's a crime, I'm serving forever
Being strong is what you want, then I need help here with this feather
If being afraid is a crime, we hang side by side
At the swingin' party down the line
At the swingin' party down the line
Catchin' time
At the swingin' party down the line

Porta il tuo paralume, da qualche parte c'è una festa
Qui non finisce mai, non ricordo quando è iniziato
Fai il giro del paralume, ci sarà abbastanza spazio in prigione
Se stare da solo è un crimine, servirò per sempre
Essere forti è il tuo tipo, ho bisogno di aiuto qui con questa piuma
Se avere paura è un crimine, restiamo fianco a fianco
Alla festa swing in fondo alla linea
Sul marciapiede della prateria, una proposta persa
Lasciare la scuola, andare a lavorare e non andare mai a pescare
Acqua tutt'intorno, non imparare mai a nuotare adesso
Se stare da solo è un crimine, servirò per sempre
Essere forti è il tuo tipo, allora ho bisogno di aiuto con questa piuma
Se avere paura è un crimine, restiamo fianco a fianco
Alla festa swing in fondo alla linea
Alla festa swing in fondo alla linea
Porta il tuo paralume, da qualche parte c'è una festa
Qui non finisce mai, non ricordo quando è iniziato
Fate il giro del paralume, in galera ci sarà un sacco di posto
Se stare da solo è un crimine, servirò per sempre
Essere forti è quello che vuoi, allora ho bisogno di aiuto con questa piuma
Se avere paura è un crimine, restiamo fianco a fianco
Alla festa swing in fondo alla linea
Alla festa swing in fondo alla linea
Prendendo tempo
Alla festa swing in fondo alla linea
