When I was just 17               
                      
Sex no longer held a mystery
                        
I saw it as a commodity         
                                  
To be bought and sold like rock and roll

          
Day by day I plunged deeper
                    
Into a world of cheap sensation
                      
This held a great attraction for me
             
And I dreamt of  my own club

CCCC                 CCCC
And when I danced,   And saw you dance        
CCCC                         
I saw a gambling room in the back
                         
With prostitutes skilled in the art
                        
Of tango lies and exploitation

			
My club is open to all
				
The brightest lights you ever saw
			  
The darkest corners for having fun
                            
Happy faces no questions asked

              
Late one night the club was heaving
		  
I saw a vampire move across the floor
		      
Old and white with a silver cane
		   
Lusting for youth through the mirror
		   
And when i danced and saw you dance

I saw a world where the dead are worshipped
		                           
This world belongs to them now they can keep it,

                  
I live alone and I walk the dark edge
		   
Of the shoplights shadow,
    		    
In each display a private hell
			 
Name your price you're up for sale.


		   
And when i danced and saw you dance

I saw a world where the dead are worshipped
		                           
This world belongs to them now they can keep it
