Lyrics:

M-M-M-M-M-M-M-M-M-M-M-M-M-Mabel

Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take, take
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
Like us, hate us, but you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
It's our occupation, we're a dancing nation
We keep the pressure on every night
Explanations are complications
We don't need to know the 'Where?' or 'Why?'
Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take, take
Taking chances, bold advances
Don't care if you think we're out of line
Conversation is interrogation
Get out of here, we just don't have the time
Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take, take
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable (respectable)
Like us, hate us, but you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable (respectable)
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Hesitation is just frustration
Give us the music and we're alright
On each occasion, for your information
We can look after ourselves alright
Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take, take
Fascination is our sensation
We like to put ourselves on the line
Recreation is our destination
So don't wait up for us tonight
Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take, take
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable (respectable)
Like us, hate us, but you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable (respectable)
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable (yeah)
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable

Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take, take
Take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take-take, take, take, take
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable (respectable)
Like us, hate us, but you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable (respectable)
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable (respectable)
Like us, hate us, but you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable (respectable)
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
Like us, hate us, but you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable
