Cruisin’
[Verse 1]
Young man, there's no need to feel down, I said
Young man, pick yourself off the ground, I said
Young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy
Young man, there's a place you can go, I said
Young man, when you're short on your dough you can
Stay there and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time
[Chorus]
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
They have everything for young men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal
You can do whatever you feel
[Verse 2]
Young man, are you listening to me? I said
Young man, what do you want to be? I said
Young man, you can make real your dreams
But you've got to know this one thing
No man does it all by himself, I said
Young man, put your pride on the shelf
And just go there, to the Y.M.C.A.
I'm sure they can help you today
[Chorus]
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
They have everything for young men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal
You can do whatever you feel
[Verse 3]
Young man, I was once in your shoes, I said
I was down and out with the blues, I felt
No man cared if I were alive
I felt the whole world was so jive
That's when someone came up to me and said
"Young man, take a walk up the street
It's a place there called the Y.M.C.A.
They can start you back on your way"
[Chorus]
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
They have everything for young men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
[Post-Chorus]
Y.M.C.A., it's fun to stay at the
Y.M.C.A.
Young man, young man, there's no need to feel down
Young man, young man, get yourself off the ground
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Y.M.C.A., it's fun to stay at the
Y.M.C.A.
Young man, young man, are you listening to me?
Young man, young man, what do you wanna be?
Y.M.C.A., you'll find it at the
Y.M.C.A.
No man, no man does it all by himself
Young man, young man, put your pride on the shelf
Y.M.C.A. and just go to the
Y.M.C.A.
Young man, young man, I was once in your shoes
Young man, young man, I was down with the blues
Y.M.C.A., it's fun to stay at the

Who has been the center, world's greatest attraction
Since the beginning of time? (A woman!)
What can hypnotize the eyes with body motion
Flowing like the ocean's tide? (A woman!)
Woman is so mysterious
You know a woman is so voluptuous
A woman spreads joy with every smile
I say a woman's face makes me scream (Aaah!)

Those who like too many things
Silver slippers, diamond rings
Those who carry themselves just like a queen! (Aaah!)

Stops the world till she's all right? (A woman!)

A woman keeps lit her light of love

I swear to you people, it must be my fate
The cards were against me, now there's no escape
I have this here problem, who keeps me up late
My roommate, my roommate
He thinks he's the greatest, dancer of all time
He never stops dancin', he's out of his mind
In the bathroom singing, a pitch out of time
My roommate, my roommate
(Chorus)
I can't sleep the day, noon or night
I can't sleep the day, noon or night
I can't take much more
My roommate, my roommate, he's driving me insane
My roommate, my roommate, he plays so many games
My roommate, my roommate, he breaks all of the rules
My roommate, my roommate, he is a dancing fool
I go to the closet, to put on my coat
Instead on the hanger, I find pinned a note
"I went to the disco, I took your best coat."
My roommate, my roommate
I come home real early, thinking he's asleep
Instead I am greeted, by big ugly feet
"I've got this new dance step, five, six, seven, eight."
My roommate, my roommate
He's a dancin' fool, ya'll
Well, let me tell you about him
Well, talkin' 'bout my roommate
My roommate is the kind of guy
Who likes his music playin' high
My roommate is the kind of guy
Who likes his music playin' high
He dances all night, he dances all day
He dances all night, he dances all day
I gotta story for you
I just don't know what to do
You see I'm hung up on pills
I take them for my cheap thrills
I take pills all day and night
To try and make things all right
I take them when I feel down
And wanna fly
I wish I could end this trip
I have begun to like it
But truth is pills are not cool
I'd just be playing the fool
I know that reality
Is far away now from me
I wish I could find my way
Back to the ground
It's not around
It can't be found
[Chorus]
I take my ups, ups, ups, and downs
I take my ups, ups, ups, and downs
I wish this madness would end
Where did this pill trip begin?
I take my ups, ups, ups, and downs
I take my ups, ups, ups, and downs
I take my ups, ups, ups, and downs
They're either red or they're blue
I take the white and orange too
I take my ups, ups, ups, and downs
I just don't know what to do, oh no
I feel so un-for real, oh yes
I wish that I could end this trip
I just can't take no more
Take no more, no no
No more
I take pills when I wake up
To get me out of my bed
I take pills when I go dance
To concentrate on the steps
I take pills when I go home
To help me fall fast asleep
I take pills when I work out
To reach my peak
Sometimes I feel very strange
Sometimes I forget my name
I can't remember the time
When real thoughts went through my mind
I need to throw all these pills
I have been popping away
I need to throw them away
Right now today
Yes right away
[Chorus]
I said that I would quit today
I said that I would throw away
All the pills that I had you see
I want to be free
I wanna be free
I just want to be free
I want to be free yeah
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes I don't even know my name
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes I feel oh so strange
I take an up in the morning
I take me a down late at night
I take me a up early in the evening
I take me a down to make me feel all right
So now that you've heard my tale
I hope that you'll wish me well
I hope that you'll understand
I'm doing all that I can
To make this nightmare I've got
You know it takes a strong will
But I can do it real soon
I hope I will
Life has its own ups and downs
They keep my head spinning round
Life has its own ups and downs
When there are no pills around
So tell me why do I need
To keep on taking these pills
They've got me so that I feel
So un-for real
I think I'm ill
I need a pill
[Chorus x 2]
