If you are planning a party or fete
Here is the rule that you should not forget
Why send in clowns or a fancy bouquet?
Just ring up some good friends and call it a day
Just ring up some good friends and call it a day

Magicians are fine with their doves and their hats
And petting zoos work if you lock up your cats
But what's important when all's said and done
Is skipping and singing and playing and fun
Skipping and singing and playing and fun!

Company, company, that is what counts
A party does not need excessive amounts
Company, company, morning or night
What matters the most are the folks you invite
What matters the most are the folks you invite

Don't bother to order a big fancy cake
Instead, think of something that's simple to make
Your guests won't remember the sculptures of ice
They'd rather share laughter with someone who's nice
They'd rather share laughter with someone who's nice

Company, company, that is what counts
A party does not need excessive amounts
Company, company, morning or night
What matters the most are the folks you invite
Company, company, that is what counts
A party does not need excessive amounts
Company, company, morning or night
What matters the most are the folks you invite!
