Dark Dance Hall Songtext
von Kevin Coyne

This is called Dark Dancehall

I said oh, what can I say?
Lights getting in my way
Turn them down, don′t let them shine
Darkness is mine, all mine
Monkey man on my back
Bring my spirit back, back, back
Walking the line for you
What am I going to do?

CJ in leopard skin
Face all drunk, face all thin
Walking, talking to myself
Sometimes there's nobody else
Nobody else, nobody


There was a little boy with cracked knees
Sitting down by the river, starting to cry
Feeding swans on a Sunday
See the lovers they lay
See the lovers they lay

Sweet, sweet the memories
Sweet, sweet the memories
Sweet, sweet the memories
Sweet, sweet the memories
How sweet, how sweet the memories
Sweet, sweet the memories

I said oh, what can I say?
Lights getting in my way
Turn them down, don′t let them shine
Darkness is mine, all mine
Monkey man on my back
Bring my spirit back, back, back
Walking the line for you
What am I going to do?

What am I going to do?
What am I going to do?
What am I going to do?
What am I going to do?
