Respectable
Hi Kim
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay
T-tay, Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay
Take or leave us
Only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
It's our occupation
We're a dancing nation
We keep the pressure on every night
Explanations are complications
We don't need to know the where or why
Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay
T-tay, Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay
Taking chances
Bold advances
Don't care if you think we're out of line
Conversation is interrogation
Get out of here, we just don't have the time
Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay
T-tay, Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay
Take or leave us
Only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
Like us
Hate us
But you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Hesitation is just frustration
Give us the music and we're all right
On each occasion
For your information
We can look after ourselves all right
Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay
T-tay, Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay
Take or leave us
Only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
Respectable
Like us
Hate us
But you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Fascination is our sensation
We like to put ourselves on the line
Recreation is our destination
So don't wait up for us tonight
Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay
T-tay, Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay, Tay
Take or leave us
Only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
Respectable
Like us
Hate us
But you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
Respectable
Take or leave us
Only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
Respectable
Like us
Hate us
But you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
Hey, they're hot
