Tim Curry - Paradise Garage lyrics

rate me

I went down to Paradise Garage

And took my place in line

The cashier said

"Are you alright?"

I said "I'm feelin' fine"

I'm a stranger to Nirvana,

I don't box outside my weight

But when I stepped out of the taxi

I did not anticipate this feelin'

(Oh excuse me, sir...

Oh, no, no, after you...)

Baby's got a dream and she can boogie

Daddy's got a groove that's coming clean

Jemie's got a vision of a permanent position

Me, I'm oiling up my dance machine

And it goes like this

And it goes like this

Well, I'm from Plainsbro, New Jersery,

And I didn't bring a date

I guess I wasn't really sure

If you'd be boogeyin' this late

I can't think were I put my wallet

Naive suburban fool

You wouldn't think that I'd spent hours outside

French polishing my cool...

And feelin' so strange

(I said after you...

I'm a gentleman...

Well, by implication)

Baby's got a dream and she can boogie

Daddy's got a groove that's comin' clean

Jemie's got a vision of a permanent position,

Me, I'm oiling up my dance maching

And it goes like this

And it goes like this

And it goes like this

And it goes like this

And it goes like this

Gotta boogie!

Baby's got a dream and she can boogie

Daddy's got a groove that's comin' clean

Jemie's got a vision, of a permanent position

Me, I'm oiling up my dance machine

And it goes like this

And it goes like this

And it goes like this

Well, I really only stepped inside to vary my routine

You see, I read about this discotheque

In New York Magazine

(Hey Baby,

What's your sign?

And haven't we met before?)

I really must suggest

That we've achieved a rare rapport

Hit the ceiling

(Where are you?

Come on,

Come on

You're usually so punctual)

Gotta boogie

(Uh, no, I had a little trouble at the door,

But, anyway,,,,twenty bucks took care of it...

Do you come here a lot?)

Gotta boogie
