Downtown's been caught by the hysteria
  People scream and shout
  A generation's on the move
  When disco spreads like a bacteria
  These lonely days are right
  Welcome the passion of the groove
  
  The golden years
  The silver tears
  You wore a tie like Richard Gere
  I wanna get down
  You spin me around
  I stand on the borderline
  
  Crying at the discoteque
  Crying at the discoteque
  
  I saw you crying
  I saw you crying at the discoteque
  I saw you crying
  I saw you crying at the discoteque
  
  Tonight's the night at the danceteria
  The joining of the tribe
  The speakers blasting clear and loud
  The way you dance is our criteria
  The DJ takes you high
  Let tears of joy baptize the crowd
  
  The golden years
  The silver tears
  You wore a tie like Richard Gere
  I wanna get down
  You spin me around
  I stand on the borderline
  
  Crying at the discoteque
  Crying at the discoteque
  
  I saw you crying
  I saw you crying at the discoteque
  I saw you crying
  I saw you crying at the discoteque
  
  The passion of the groove
  Generation on the move
  Joining of the disco tribe
  Let the music take you high
  
  The golden years
  The silver tears
  You wore a tie like Richard Gere
  I wanna get down
  You spin me around
  I stand on the borderline
  
  Crying at the discoteque
  Crying at the discoteque
  
  I saw you crying
  I saw you crying at the discoteque
  I saw you crying
  I saw you crying at the discoteque
