Star Generation |
Way in the middle of the night, yeah |
Down in the ghetto, even again, yeah |
In the mornin', ow |
Did you ever hear a story |
About a funky kid Slick? |
He was raised in the ghetto |
But he couldn’t dance a lick |
When he finished school |
He got a job from 9 to 5, yeah |
Just walkin' the line |
Tryin' to stay alive |
On night on his way home |
From a hard day at work |
Heard a funky sound, ow |
Made his funky feet jerk |
Came from a field and |
All those flashing lights |
And the music set the cold chill |
Right out of the night |
(Star generation |
Sleeping over the land) |
Funky kid Slick, wanna be |
(Wants to be a man) |
Something better than a cotton-picking man |
(All he ever really wanted, was a |
Chance to get down) |
And be a superstar |
(And be a superstar |
With the disco, disco, disco crowd) |
Yeah, let the man do his thing |
Oh, he stood there and listened, yeah |
And the beat began to pound |
And his body was rocking |
From the funky, funky funky sound |
So he learned all the dances |
From the kids on the block, hah! |
To be the star of the disco |
Look at him rock |
Watch him rock |
Rock-rock-rock-rock-rock, rock, ow! |
Aaah, watch him rock |
Watch him rock |
Make it boogie! |
Star generation |
A real dancing machine |
This finky kid Slick |
Dances on a solo team |
All he ever really wanted, was a |
Chance to get down |
And be a superstar |
(And be a superstar |
With the disco, disco, disco crowd) |
With the disco, disco crowd! |
