Downtown's been caught by the hysteria 
People scream and shout 
A generation's on the move 
When disco spreads like THE bacteria 
THOSE lonely days are out 
Welcome the passion of the groove 
The golden years 
The silver tears 
You wore a tie like Richard Gere 
I wanna get down 
You spin me around 
I stand on the borderline 
Crying at the discoteque 
Crying at the discoteque 
I saw you crying 
I saw you crying at the discoteque 
I saw you crying 
I saw you crying at the discoteque 
Tonight's the night at the danceteria 
The joining of the tribe 
The speakers blasting clear and loud 
The way you dance is our criteria 
The DJ takes you high 
Let tears of joy baptise the crowd 
The golden years 
The silver tears 
You wore a tie like Richard Gere 
I wanna get down 
You spin me around 
I stand on the borderline 
Crying at the discoteque 
Crying at the discoteque 
I saw you crying 
I saw you crying at the discoteque 
I saw you crying 
I saw you crying at the discoteque 
The passion of the groove 
Generation on the move 
Joining of the disco tribe 
Let the music take you high 
The golden years 
The silver tears 
You wore a tie like Richard Gere 
I wanna get down 
You spin me around 
I stand on the borderline 
Crying at the discoteque 
Crying at the discoteque 
I saw you crying 
I saw you crying at the discoteque 
I saw you crying 
I saw you crying at the discoteque
