Disco Apocalypse

Lyrics

Down the side streets and the avenue
 There be sisters walkin' two by two
 Their dresses and their shoes are new
 But their hearts are weary through and through
 And it's a long way into the light of the day
 While the juke box and the radio play
 Where the days turn into the nights
 People move into the sounds and sights
 Like the moth is drawn into the lights
 Like the tight-rope walker into the heights
 It's in their hearts, it's in their hips
 It's in their feet, it's on their lips
 Tonight's the night I'm gonna make you mine, yeah
 Gonna dance right out onto the edge of time
 When the sound starts pumpin' and the lights are flashin'
 And my hearts-a-thumpin' and I feel the passion
 And the world is right there waiting at my finger tips
 Disco, disco, disco apocalypse
 In the dawn the city seems to sigh
 And the hungry hear their children cry
 People watch the time go by
 They do their jobs and live and die
 And in their dreams they rise above
 By strength, or hate, or luck, or love
 Tonight's the night I'm gonna make you mine, yeah
 Gonna dance right out onto the edge of time
 When the world starts turnin' and the floors are shakin'
 And the dreams are burnin' and the skies awaken
 Through the wind and the fire they will be dancing still
 It's in their hearts, it's in their hips
 It's in their feet, it's on their lips
 A single sound that never ends
 They die each night and live again
 I'm gonna make you mine
 Tonight's the night out on the edge of time
 With the dreams of flesh and love dancing in my mind
 Dancing through the fire on the edge of time
