Oh I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance
He wants to dance, he loves to dance, he's got to dance
Oh I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance
Oh I love to love
But there's no time for our romance
No no no oh

I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance

The minute the band begins to swing it
He's on his feet to dig it
And dance the night away
Stop I'm spinning like a top
We'll dance until we drop
But if I had my way

Oh I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance
He wants to dance, he loves to dance, he's got to dance
Oh I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance
Oh I love to love
But he can give our love a chance
No no no oh

Oh I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance

Stop I'm spinning like a top
We'll dance until we drop
But if I had my way
Sundown instead of going downtown
We'll stay at home and get down
To what I'm tryin' to say

I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance yes he does
I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance, yes he does
I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance yes he does
I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance yes he does
I love to love
But my baby just loves to dance yes he does

    My Interpretation

    She's horny, he doesn't seem to care. What kind of man would dance rather than to have sex anyway?

Corpse I Fell In Love With
Gadjits, The
He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

The Spy
Doors, The
Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
