Disco Inferno Lyrics

Burn, baby, burn
Burn, baby, burn
Burn, baby, burn
Burn, baby, burn
Burnin'

To my surprise, one hundred stories high
People getting loose now, getting down on the roof, I tell ya
Folks screaming, out of control
It was so entertaining when the boogie starts to explode
I heard somebody said

(Burn, baby, burn) Disco inferno
(Burn, baby, burn) Burn that mother down now
(Burn, baby, burn) Disco inferno
(Burn, baby, burn) Burn that mother down (burn it)

Satisfaction came in a chain reaction, yeah (burnin')
I couldn't get enough, so I had to self-destruct, I tell ya
The heat was on, rising to the top
Everybody's going strong and that is when my spark got hot
I heard somebody said

(Burn, baby, burn) Disco inferno
(Burn, baby, burn) Burn that mother down now, yeah
(Burn, baby, burn) Disco inferno
(Burn, baby, burn) Burn that mother down

Up above my head
I hear music in the air (I hear music)
That makes me know
There's a party somewhere

Satisfaction came in a chain reaction
I couldn't get enough, so I had to self-destruct, I tell ya
Heat was on, rising to the top
Everybody's going strong and that is when my spark got hot
I heard somebody said

(Burn, baby, burn) Disco inferno
(Burn, baby, burn) Burn that mother down now, yeah
(Burn, baby, burn) Disco inferno
(Burn, baby, burn) Said, burn that mother down
(Burn, baby, burn) Oh
(Burn, baby, burn) Burn that mother down
(Burn, baby, burn) Disco inferno
(Burn, baby, burn) Burn that mother down

Oh
(Just can't stop) I just can't stop
(When the spark gets hot) Oh, when my spark gets hot
(Just can't stop) Just can't stop
(When my spark gets hot) Ow
(Just can't stop) Ow
(When my spark gets hot) Just can't stop
(Just can't stop) 'Cause my spark's got hot
(When the spark gets hot) Woo
(Just can't stop)
