They've got the right idea.<br />They think it's great to refrigerate<br />while we all cremate down here.<br /><br />Just be like those bamboo babies <br />in the South Sea tropic zones--for<br />it ain't no sin to take off your skin <br />and dance around in your bones!<br /><br />Dancing may do this and that, and help you take off excess fat.<br />But I'm no friend of dancing when it's hot. No I'm not.<br />So if you are a dancing fool, who loves to dance but can't keep cool,<br />Bear in mind this idea that I've got.<br /><br />When you're calling up your sweetie in those hot house telephones,<br />Tain't no sin to take off your skin and dance around in your bones.<br />When you're on a crowded dance floor, near those red hot saxophones,<br />Tain't no sin to take off your skin and dance around in your bones.<br />Just take a look at the girls while they're dancing. Notice the way that they're dressed.<br />They wear silken clothes without any hose and nobody knows the rest.<br />If a gal wears X-ray dresses, and shows everything she owns,<br />Tain't no sin to take off your skin and dance around in your bones.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Vincent Lopez & His Orchestra "'Taint No Sin To Dance Around In Your Bones" Banner 0569 (1930)
