Oh what a crazy party, all the gang's here, too

The beat is really jumpin' like a kangaroo

I'm pullin' cherry soda and potato chips

But now I wanna get a taste of your sweet lips

[Chorus]

So, dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)

Dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)

Turn down the lights, I want some atmosphere

The furniture is bouncin' round the room with glee

And rockin' like a boat upon a stormy sea

But dig the crazy clock, it's runnin' wild tonight

But still I haven't had a chance to hold you tight

Look at Annie's earings bouncin' off her back

Look at Suzie kissin' and a-huggin' Jack

Look at Nancy dancin' in her stocking feet

We're all goin' crazy with the mambo beat

But everybody's really havin' lots of fun

But honey as for me the night has just begun

'Cause now I wanna tell you things and hold you tight

But, how can I do it with the room so bright?

But everybody's really havin lots of fun

But honey as for me the night has just begun

'Cause now I wanna tell you things and hold you tight

But, how can I do it with the room so bright?
