Out in the street
They`re tryin` to arrest my friend
They put him on ice now twice
But he`s back again
Well he did that dance in Harlem
All across the USA
From the [Tapanzee?]
To the Golden Gate
He was an animal all the way
But now there`s no more dancin`
No more dancin` in the street
Now there`s no more dancin`
No more dancin` in the street
Martha and the Vandellas
Told you how to do as you please
Now all of you idiots
Are dancin` with the Bee Gees
When they introduce their latest record
You`re as thrilled as a rat in a maze
[You gotta do your stuff?]
Now you`re sexless and dull
What ever happened to the latest craze?
Now that there`s no more dancin`
No more dancin` in the street
Now there`s no more dancin`
No more dancin` in the street
And it`s 1, 2, 3, 4
Don`t imagine any more
And it`s 5, 6, 7, 8
Have another empty plate
Aww, just when things were gettin` funny [fun?]
You had to reconsider all of the rules
Now consumer affairs
Has got you dancin` in pairs
Dressed up like a bunch of fools
Now that there`s no more dancin`
No more dancin` in the street
Now there`s no more dancin`
No more dancin` in the street
Now there`s no more dancin`
No more dancin` in the street
Now there`s no more dancin`
No more dancin` in the street
Now there`s no more dancin`
No more dancin` in the street
Now there`s no more dancin`
No more dancin` in the street
