Dancing may do this and that,
and help you take off lots of fat,
but I'm no friend of dancing
when it's hot.
So if you are a dancing fool,
who loves to dance but can't keep cool,
bear in mind the idea that I've got.
When it gets too hot for com fort,
and you can't get ice cream cones,
why it ain't no sin to take off your skin
and dance around your bones.
When the lazy syncopation
of the mu sic softly moans
Why, ain't no sin to take off your skin
and dance around in your bones
The polar bears ain't green in Greenland,
they got the right idea
They think it's great to re frigerate
while we suffocate down here
Just be like those bamboo babies
in the South Sea tropic zones
Why, it ain't no sin to
take off your skin
and dance around in your
bones
When you're callin'
up your sweetie
on those hot house telephones
Why it ain't no sin
to take off your skin
and dance around in your bones
When you're on a crowded dance floor,
near those red -hot saxophones,
why, it ain't no sin to rip it off
and dance around in your bones.
Just take a look at the girls
while they're dancing.
Oh, notice the way they're dressed
In silk and clothes without any hose
and nobody knows the rest
When they wear those x -ray dresses
and upset their chaperone
Why it ain't no sin to
take off your skin
And dance, dance, dance,
a -doodle -oodle, dance, dance,
dance,
a -doodle -oodle, dance,
dance, dance
Surrounding your home Skyli -wa
