Get a ride to the west side
Kiss the girl with her tongue tied
Hello everybody!
Work it out 'cause you don't care
Shut down like software
Take a sip for the hip-hop
Fuel up at the rest stop
We're just physical creatures of the underworld
She is the queen of the fra-disco scene
Retro dance, freak! (retro, retro, dance)
Singing retro dance beats
Retro dance, freak!
Undercover the girl needs a lover
What's up everybody?
Take a ride on an airplane
Take a bath in champagne
What's up everybody?
Watch the girls all curtsy for the paparazzi!
Let's go everybody!
It's time that we rotate, 'cause it's getting real late
We're just physical creatures of the underworld
She is the queen of the fra-disco scene
Retro dance, freak! (retro, retro, dance)
Singing retro dance beats
Retro dance, freak!
Undercover the girl needs a lover
Retro dance, freak! (retro, retro, dance)
Singing retro dance beats
Retro dance, freak!
Undercover the girl needs a lover
Retro dance, freak! (retro, retro, dance)
Singing retro dance beats
Retro dance, freak!
Undercover the girl needs a lover
We are just physical creatures of the underworld
She is the queen of the fra-disco scene
Retro dance, freak! (retro, retro, dance)
Singing retro dance beats
Retro dance, freak!
Undercover the girl needs a lover
Retro dance, freak! (retro, retro, dance)
Singing retro dance beats
Retro dance, freak!
Undercover the girl needs a lover
The song "Retro Dance Freak" by Lady Gaga has energetic and upbeat lyrics that celebrate the nightlife culture and the desire to let go and dance without care. The opening verses are focused on the joys of going out for a night on the town, kissing the girl with her tongue tied, and enjoying the strange and wonderful energy of the underground club scene. Lady Gaga sings about the physicality of dance and the sense of freedom it can bring, as well as referencing the culture of hip-hop and the need to fuel up before a night of dancing.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "retro dance, freak," and emphasizes the importance of enjoying the moment and giving in to the pleasures of the club culture. The imagery of the queen of the "fra-disco" scene reinforces the sense of community found in late-night underground clubs, and the idea that everyone is there to let go and have a good time. The final line of the chorus, "undercover the girl needs a lover," is a nod to the romantic and sexual energy that can be found in the club scene, as well as to the sense of anonymity that can be enjoyed while hiding in plain sight in a crowded club.
Overall, "Retro Dance Freak" presents a fun and celebratory perspective on the club culture, one that encourages people to let loose and enjoy the physical and emotional pleasures of dance and socializing.
