Lyrics

ALL THOSE DANCES

YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH,
THERE WAS THE JITTERBUG, THE LIMBO,
THE CHALYPSO, MASHED POTATOES,
THE WATUSI, MAMBO FREDDIE AND THE BOP.

THERE WAS THE MONKEY AND THE TURTLE
AND THE ALLEY CAT AND PONY,
FUNKY CHICKEN AND THE DOG AND BUNNY HOP.

THERE WAS THE BOOGALOO, THE POPEYE,
HULLY GULLY AND THE BUS STOP,
LOCKING, POPPING, DISCO, MADISON AND SLOP.

THERE WAS THE TWIST, THE SKATE,
THE STOMP, THE FRUG,
THE SWIM, THE FLY,
THE BUMP, THE BIRD,
THE FREAK, THE SLAM,
THE JERK, THE LINDY HOP.

BUT OF ALL THOSE DANCES,
ONE RINGS LOUD AND CLEAR.
SO LET?S TWIST AGAIN
LIKE WE DID THAT YEAR.

(SPOKEN)
That was nineteen sixty what????
