Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Fire island (fire, fire island)
It's a funky weekend (Funky) a funky, funky weekend
Fire island (fire, fire island)
It's a funky weekend (Funky) a funky, funky weekend
It's the place where you'll find me
The sun and sea, the place where love is free, yeah
Fire island (fire, fire island)
It's a funky weekend (Funky) a funky, funky weekend
Fire island (fire, fire island)
It's a funky weekend (Funky) a funky, funky weekend
[Verse 2]
You never know just who you meet
Maybe someone out of your wildest fantasies, yeah
Fire island (fire, fire island)
It's a funky weekend (Funky) a funky, funky weekend
[Verse 3]
Don't go in the bushes, don't go in the bushes
Don't go in the bushes
Someone might grab ya, someone might grab ya
Don't go in the bushes, don't go in the bushes (Don't go)
Don't go in the bushes, don't go
Someone might stab ya, someone might stab ya, yeah
[Verse 4]
Don't go in the bushes, no
Someone might grab ya, someone might grab ya
Don't go in the bushes
Someone might stab ya, someone might stab ya
[Verse 5]
Fire island (fire, fire island)
It's a funky weekend (Funky) a funky, funky weekend
Fire island (fire, fire island)
It's a funky weekend (Funky) a funky, funky weekend
[Verse 6]
Sea, plane or train will take you there
It's a paradise there's also bus or cab, yea
Fire island (fire, fire island)
It's a funky weekend (Funky) a funky, funky weekend
Fire island (fire, fire island)
It's a funky weekend (Funky) a funky, funky weekend
[Verse 7]
We can scream, but lets sing, we can do each others thing, yeah
Fire island (fire, fire island)
It's a funky weekend (Funky) a funky, funky weekend
[Verse 8]
Don't go in the bushes, don't go in the bushes, no
Don't go in the bushes, don't go
Someone might grab ya, someone might grab ya
Don't go in the bushes, don't go, in the bushes
Don't go in the bushes, someone might stab ya, yeah-ha
[Verse 9]
Groove at the ice palace (Get on down at the monster)
Been there, been there (Been there at the Blue Whale)
Peckin', I'm peckin' (Peckin' at the sandpiper)
Pumpin', I'm pumpin' (Pumpin' at the botel)
[Verse 10]
Fire island
Fire island
I'll take your hand (Fire Island) you take mine
We'll hit the groove (Fire island) and really shake the times
There's a house (Fire island) on your back
Boogie on down (Fire island) follow me back
[Verse 11]
Fire island
Fire island
I'll take your hand (Fire Island) you take mine
We'll go down (Fire island) and really shake the times
There's a house (Fire island) on your back
Boogie on down (Fire island) follow me back
