I saw you in the picture
I saw you play the part
This ain't no disco
There's a thousand watts in you
You take this too far
This ain't no disco

Sometimes when I wonder if you're taking a chance
This ain't no disco
And you know how to dance

Move me disco
Baby don't you let go
This ain't no disco

Part one
Act one
Everyone pretend
This ain't no disco
This is more a story
And we're reaching the end
This ain't no disco

Always makes me happy when you're taking a chance
This ain't no disco
And you know how to dance

Move me disco
Baby don't you let go
This ain't no disco

    General Comment:This song is about a chick dancing disco style in New Wave club. The onlookers are looking at her disapprovingly since she is out of style. New Wave took over from Disco. Basically dance music for punk rockers.

    General Comment:This song is one of my favorites too, I don't know why it gets so much guff. I honestly don't know what it's about, it's just a great beat and vocals!

    General Comment:Even though Vince Clarke openly admitted that the majority of his songs are just "pretentious lyrics he flings together in order to make the songs "sound better" even if they don't make particular sense", I'm still going to try and decipher something out of this gibberish...

    I think it's about a guy who's having an amazing time at a disco (the opposite of a 'nodisco' - a disco that just sucks). And he sees a girl dancing who he thinks is very attractive and is a great dancer. And he's obviously glad that she's making an effort to look good on the dancefloor.
