When  I was just 17
Sex  no longer held a mystery
I saw  it as a commodity
 To be bought  and sold  like rock  and roll
Day  by day I  plunged deeper
 Into a world of cheap  sensation
 This held a great attraction  for me
And  I dreamt of  my own club
And  when I danced, And  saw you dance
I saw  a gambling room  in the back
 With prostitutes  skilled in  the art
 Of tango  lies and exploitation
My  club is open to all
The  brightest lights you ever saw
The  darkest corners for having  fun
Happy  faces  no questions asked
Late  one night the  club was heaving
 I saw a vampire move  across the floor
 Old and white with a silver  cane
Lusting  for youth through  the mirror
And  when i danced and  saw you dance
I  saw a world where the dead are worshipped
This  world belongs to them  now they  can keep it,
I  live alone and I walk  the dark edge
 Of the shoplights shadow,
 In each  display a private  hell
Name  your price you're up  for sale.
And  when i danced and  saw you dance
I  saw a world where the dead are worshipped
This  world belongs to them  now they  can keep it
