Sister Disco

As I walked through that hospital door

I was sewn up like a coat

I got a smile from the bite of the wind

Watched the fresh fall of snow

I knew then that my life took a turn

I felt strong and secure

And with adhesive tape over my nose

I felt almost demure

Goodbye, Sister Disco

With your flashing trash lamps

Goodbye, Sister Disco

And to your clubs and your tramps

Goodbye, Sister Disco

My dancing's left you behind

Goodbye, now you're solo

Black plastic, deaf, dumb and blind

Bye

Goodbye, Sister Disco

Now I go

I go where the music fits my soul

And I

I will never let go

I'll never let go

'Til the echo

Of the street fight

Has dissolved

I will choose nightmares and cold, stormy seas

I will take over your grief and disease

I'll stay beside you and comfort your soul

When you are lonely and broken and old

Now I walk with a man in my face

A woman in my head

I've got you all lookin' out through my eyes

My feet are a prayer

Goodbye, Sister Disco

With your flashing trash lamps

Goodbye, Sister Disco

And to your clubs and your tramps

Goodbye, Sister Disco

My dancing's left you behind

Goodbye, now you're solo

Black plastic, deaf, dumb and blind
