Lyrics

[Intro]
Dancin', dancin', dancin'
She's a dancin' machine (Oh, baby)
Move it, baby
[Verse 1]
Automatic, systematic
Full of color, self-contained
Tuned and gentle to your vibes
Captivating, stimulating
She's such a sexy lady
Filled with space-age design
[Refrain]
She's movin', she's groovin', dancin' until the music stops now, yeah
[Verse 2]
Rhythmatic, acrobatic
She's a dynamite attraction
At the drop of a coin she comes alive, yeah
She knows what she's doin'
She's super bad now
She's geared to really blow your mind
[PreChorus]
Dancin', dancin', dancin'
She's a dancin' machine
Ah, baby
Do it, baby
Dancin', dancin', dancin'
She's a dancin' machine
Oh, baby
Move it, baby
[Chorus]
She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine
Watch her get down, watch her get down
As she do, do, do her thing right on the scene
She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine
Watch her get down, watch her get down
As she do, do, do her thing right on the scene
[Refrain]
Come on, baby (Ooh bop, ooh bop)
Come on, baby (Ooh bop, ooh bop)
Oh, baby (Ooh bop, ooh bop)
Oh, baby (Ooh bop, ooh bop)
Shake it, baby (Ooh bop, ooh bop)
Shake it, baby (Ooh bop, ooh bop)
Ooh, baby (Ooh bop, ooh bop)
Oh, baby (Ooh bop, ooh bop)
[Chorus]
She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine (Dance, dance)
Watch her get down, watch her get down (Dance)
As she do, do, do her thing right on the scene (Dance)
She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine (I like it, I like it)
Watch her get down, watch her get down (I like it)
As she do, do, do her thing right on the scene (I like it)
[Outro]
She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine
Watch her get down, watch her get down
As she do, do, do her thing right on the scene
She's a dance, dance, dance, dance, dancin' machine
Watch her get down, watch her get down
