Glitterball
Birthday party ended
Dad was running late
Saw a crowd gathering
'Round lane #8
Reversible sequin
One-piece suit
Written across the back
In plastic jewels, was
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
Strike, strike, strike,
Wait
She takes a sip of
A strawberry shake
There's something so familiar
Like a dream that you've worn
Like a word on the edge of your lips
The vowels taking form
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
With Janet Jackson singing
The disco ball spinning
Light scatters across her face
Eyes I know
A shape I've seen before
Standing at the door
Putting us to sleep
That was way back
In 1983
Now I'm playing 10-pin, with the boys
Every other week
There's a pink ball that still glitters
She must have left behind
It moves through the rotation
And she's still on my mind
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
Dad was running late
Saw a crowd gathering
'Round lane #8
Reversible sequin
One-piece suit
Written across the back
In plastic jewels, was
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
Strike, strike, strike,
Wait
She takes a sip of
A strawberry shake
There's something so familiar
Like a dream that you've worn
Like a word on the edge of your lips
The vowels taking form
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
With Janet Jackson singing
The disco ball spinning
Light scatters across her face
Eyes I know
A shape I've seen before
Standing at the door
Putting us to sleep
That was way back
In 1983
Now I'm playing 10-pin, with the boys
Every other week
There's a pink ball that still glitters
She must have left behind
It moves through the rotation
And she's still on my mind
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
Glitter-ball
