Lyrics

Lost amongst the crowd
On their torsos pumping iron
The man with the horn takes to the stage
The drumbeat cracks in time
Harder and bolder the bodies move
Shoulder to shoulder, skin feels smooth
Hot, sticky, still so cool
The crash of the anvil at the nightclub school
Watch the moving bodies
As they react to the sound
Feasting on the visions
See the figures going round
Graceful and flowing the fashion shows
Sensual and glowing the passion goes
Pick your playmates, still so cool
The crash of the anvil at the nightclub school
Take it as it comes up
Leave it when it's done
Put the number in your matchbook
And call when you want fun
Living the nightlife to the end
Giving the right life like a friend
One more over, still so cool
The crash of the anvil at the nightclub school
(Ah, nightclub school)
Dance with me
(Ah, nightclub school)
Play with me
(Ah, nightclub school)
Stay with me
(Ah, nightclub school)
Ride with me
(Ah, nightclub school)
Have fun with me
(Ah, nightclub school)
Dance with me
(Ah, nightclub school)
The drumbeat cracks in time
(Ah, nightclub school)
