It's A Dirty World |
| She said she trained to be a dancer |
| But she had a proper job by day |
| Charlie Chaplin knew her father |
| Before he passed away |
| She asked could I help her with a problem |
| She doesn’t get out much no more |
| «I'm not looking for a lover — no, no, no |
| I wanna dance that’s all» |
| I wanna dance that’s all |
| I wanna dance that’s all |
| I wanna dance that’s all |
| And all around the world are people singing «hallelujah» |
| And every man in town wants to do it to you |
| With your back up against the cigarette machine |
| Oh, it’s bad for your health if you know what I mean — oh yeah |
| Oh yeah |
| And the guys at the front have seen your act one million times before |
| And nobody does it quite the same, so they’re sitting down for more |
| But you’re making them feel so useless and dumb |
| 'cos they’ve seen it all and they still can’t come |
| Oh, let me tell you — it’s a dirty world |
| Oh, it’s a dirty world |
| It’s a dirty world |
| It’s a dirty world |
| It’s a dirty world |
| And everybody in the house says «whoah» |
| And everybody in the house says «yeah!» |
| And everybody in the house says «whoah» |
| And everybody in the house says «yeah!» |
| With the period features and original dust and the china everywhere |
| And you dance 'til the place goes up in flames |
| And you lay down in the charred remains |
| That’s where I come in with my second-hand excuse for technique, yeah |
| Technique, yeah |
| Well, ain’t that a treat, yeah? |
| And everybody in the house says «whoah» |
| And everybody in the house says «yeah!» |
| And everybody in the house says «whoah» |
| And everybody in the house says «yeah!» |
| You see, I always wanted to be a dancer |
| But I just could not get it right |
| And it got me down at parties |
| So I used to sit and drink all night |
| Now I see it’s not so hard |
| All I needed was a partner |
| Someone even dirtier than me |
| And I’m so glad I found you |
| Yeah, I’m so glad I found you |
| Oh, it’s a dirty world |
| It’s a dirty world |
| It’s a dirty world |
| It’s a dirty world … |
| And everybody in the house says «whoah» |
| And everybody in the house says «yeah!» |
| And everybody in the house says «whoah» |
| And everybody in the house says «yeah!» |
| … |
