Dim, Dim the Lights (I Want Some Atmosphere)
(Ba-oo-ba-ya)
(Ba-oo-ba-ya)
Oh, what a crazy party, all the gang's here too
The beat is really jumpin' like a kangaroo
I'm full of cherry soda and potato chips
But now I wanna get a taste of your sweet lips
So dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Turn down the lights
I want some atmosphere
The furniture was bouncin' round the room with glee
And rockin' like a boat upon a stormy sea
I dig the crazy flock that's runnin' wild tonight
But still I haven't had a chance to hold you tight
So dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Turn down the lights
I want some atmosphere
Look at Annie's earrings bouncin' off the back
Look at Susie kissin' and huggin' Jack
Look at Nancy dancin' in her stockinged feet
We're all goin' crazy with the mambo beat
(Ba-oo-ba-oo-ba-oo-ba-oo) well, everybody's really havin' lots of fun
But honey, as for me, the night has just begun
'Cause now I wanna tell you things and hold you tight
But how can I do it with the room so bright?
So dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Turn down the lights
I want some atmosphere
Well, everybody's really havin' lots of fun
But honey, as for me, the night has just begun
'Cause now I wanna tell you things and hold you tight
But how can I do it with the room so bright?
So dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Turn down the lights
I want some atmosphere
(Ba-oo-ba-ya)
Oh, what a crazy party, all the gang's here too
The beat is really jumpin' like a kangaroo
I'm full of cherry soda and potato chips
But now I wanna get a taste of your sweet lips
So dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Turn down the lights
I want some atmosphere
The furniture was bouncin' round the room with glee
And rockin' like a boat upon a stormy sea
I dig the crazy flock that's runnin' wild tonight
But still I haven't had a chance to hold you tight
So dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Turn down the lights
I want some atmosphere
Look at Annie's earrings bouncin' off the back
Look at Susie kissin' and huggin' Jack
Look at Nancy dancin' in her stockinged feet
We're all goin' crazy with the mambo beat
(Ba-oo-ba-oo-ba-oo-ba-oo) well, everybody's really havin' lots of fun
But honey, as for me, the night has just begun
'Cause now I wanna tell you things and hold you tight
But how can I do it with the room so bright?
So dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Turn down the lights

Well, everybody's really havin' lots of fun
But honey, as for me, the night has just begun
'Cause now I wanna tell you things and hold you tight
But how can I do it with the room so bright?
So dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Dim, dim the lights (dim, dim the lights)
Turn down the lights
I want some atmosphere
