Meet me tonight outside the underground
Collar up – sleeves rolled down
Dodge the crazy downtown boys
Tattooed knuckles making all their noise
I’d go halfway round the world to find
Find electric ballroom girls

Electric ballroom girls shine so bright
Meet me at the show tonight
Spill out of the escalator
See you later
Steal kisses – click of high heeled shoes
Your lipstick’s red
Drop your greens and blues

This rocking band that we’re gonna see
Heard a cassette on the cover of the NME
Got your number on my cigarette packet
Eyeliner imitation leather jacket
Ripped jeans and a flag unfurled to find
Find electric ballroom girls

Electric ballroom girls shine so bright
Meet me at the show tonight
Spill out of the escalator
See you later
Steal kisses – click of high heeled shoes
Your lipstick’s red
Drop your greens and blues
