Zutons, The - Dirty Dancehall lyrics

Album: Who Killed The Zutons? (2004)

Well the sun grew dim & the night grew tall,
Everyone has dancing in the Dirty Dancehall,

The chins did wobble,
And eyes did stare,
There was a sense of threat in the air.

Everyone has dancing, & feelin´ fine,
But looking like zombies, as thought they are dying.

I stood alone in a darkened room,
My mouth is dry & my heart goes boom.

Oh the dogs & the vermin were mooching the street,
Sniffing out the candy & left over meat,
Down in the alley a tramp falls asleep,
Murdering the hookers & chops off their feet.

Everyone has dancing, feelin´ fine,
But looking like zombies, as thought they are dying.
I stood alone in a darkened room,
My mouth is dry & my heart goes boom.

This is just a night in the City Of Culture,
But Everyone has whacked & looks like vultures (x4)

All the lights came on & the music stopped,
Men in uniform outside on the watch.
The tramp waits by the bush to pounce,
Woken up again by a young girls shout,
Closing up the club, a fight breaks out,
All the black mariahs were left in no doubt,
One got killed & the other one ran,
They ended up arresting & innocent man.

This is just a night in the City Of Culture,
But Everyone has whacked & looks like vultures (x4)
