Dancing Queen

Robert Linda 1973 (Johannesburg)



Dancing Queen you're so fabulous
Dancing Queen you're so fabulous
The land is dark but the night is young
Eyes are pilled for your peculiar stunts
Unleash your dancing ability
The dancefloor is your Palace
There are drums in the air and
Whistles all around you
Dancing Queen you're so fabulous
Dancing Queen you're so fabulous
Dance in the moonlight
Dance the night away
Dance until the morning
You can't stop!
Your moves are so indulgent
They grasp attention
You're a center of attraction
No one is prepared to dose and
Miss your dancing techniques
Dancing Queen you're so fabulous
Dancing Queen you're so fabulous
The beat is alive and kicking
You're accelerated by acclamations
Dance some more
Dance some more
Dance some more
Like you've never dance before
Until the morning star
Glimpse on your ebony eyes
Dancing Queen you're so fabulous
Dancing Queen you're so fabulous
Dancing Queen you're so fabulous
