SWEET
- Ballroom Blitz Lyrics / with translationsAre you ready, Steve? Aha! Andy? Yeah! Mick? Ok.
All right, fellas, let's go!
Well, it's been getting so hard
Livin' with the things you do to me
My dreams are getting so strange
I'd like to tell you everything I see
I see a man at the back as a matter of fact
His eyes are red as the sun
And a girl in the corner let no one ignore her
'Cause she thinks she's the passionate one
Oh, yeah, it was like lightning, everybody was frightening
And the music was soothing, and they all started grooving
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the man at the back said everyone attack
And it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said boy, I wanna warn ya
It'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Oh, I'm reaching out for something
Touching nothing's all I ever do
Oh, I softly call you over
When you appear there's nothing left of you
Now the man in the back
Is ready to crack as he raises his hands to the sky
And the girl in the corner is everyone's mourner
She could kill you with a wink of her eye
Oh yeah, it was electric, so frantically hectic
And the band started leaving, 'cause they all stopped breathing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the man at the back said everyone attack
And it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said boy, I wanna warn ya
It'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz

It'll turn into a ballroom blitz

joker has it pretty right that the song was about the band being attacked at a gig but it was also about a fire a friend of the band witnessed in a night club Mick Tucker told Chinn and Chapman about it they played around with the stories and Ballroom Blitz was the result.

If you stupid little children actually experienced things like the Rocky Horror Picture Show instead of running with whatever your idiot friends post on Facebook, you would know this song is nowhere on the RHPS soundtrack. Get off your mommy's computer and go get educated!
