Freak
Chic & Sister Sledge Lyrics

Ah freak out
Expression of excitement and release of energy

Freak out
Encouragement to release inhibitions and dance

Have you heard about the new dance craze
Asking if listeners are aware of the popular new activity

Listen to us, I'm sure you'll be amazed
Confidently asserting that the music will impress listeners

It's called Le Freak
Naming the specific dance craze being discussed

They're doing it night and day
Describing the popularity and frequency of the dance

Allow us, we'll show you the way
Offering to provide instruction in the dance

Everybody dance, do do do
Encouraging all listeners to join in the dancing and singing

Clap your hands, clap your hands
Instructing the audience to participate in the beat and energy of the music

Good times, these are the good times
Celebrating the positive nature of the current moment

Leave your cares behind, these are the good times
Encouraging listeners to forget their worries and enjoy the present

Our new state of mind, these are the good times
Describing the positive emotional impact of the experience

Le freak, c'est chic
Further promoting the dance craze and attributing it to being stylish and fashionable

Do you feel like you ever want
Asking if the listener desires something specific

To try my love and see how well it fits
Suggesting that romantic or sexual attraction is present

Baby can't you see, when you look at me
Pointing out physical attraction and chemistry

I can't kick this feelin' when it hits
Admitting that the attraction and desire are powerful and persistent

All alone in my bed at night
Describing feelings of loneliness and desire

I grab my pillow and squeeze it tight
Revealing attempts to relieve the physical need for intimacy

I think of you and I dream of you all the time
Demonstrating the depth and frequency of the desire

What am I gonna do
Expressing frustration and uncertainty regarding the situation

I want your love, I want your love
Directly stating the desire for romantic or sexual connection

Le freak, c'est chic
Repeating the promotion of the dance craze

I set it free
Implying that the desire and energy are being expressed in the dance and music

All that pressure got you down
Acknowledging sources of stress or anxiety in life

Has your head spinning all around
Describing the emotional impact of these sources of pressure

Feel the rhythm, check the ride
Encouraging listeners to focus on the music and enjoy the moment

Come on along and have a real good time
Inviting listeners to participate in a positive experience

Like the days of stomping at the Savoy
Recollecting iconic moments of dancing and music history

Now we freak, oh what a joy
Celebrating the current moment of dancing and connection

Just come on down, two fifty four
Inviting all to join the party and experience a positive moment
