Up above my head I hear music in the air That makes me know there's a party somewhere Burn baby burn burn baby burn To my surprise one hundred storeys high People getting loose ya'll getting down on the roof Folks screaming out of control it was so entertaining When that boogie woogie started to explode I heard somebody say Burn baby burn Disco inferno burn that mother down Burn baby burn Disco inferno burn that mother down Satisfaction came in a chain reaction I couldn't get enough so I had to self destruct The heat was on it was rising to the top Everybody's going strong and that is when my spark got hot I heard somebody say Burn baby burn Disco inferno burn that mother down Burn baby burn Disco inferno burn that mother down Burn it on down Satisfaction came in a chain reaction I couldn't get enough so I had to self destruct The heat was on it was rising to the top Everybody's going strong and that is when my spark got hot I heard somebody say Burn baby burn Disco inferno burn that mother down Burn baby burn Disco inferno burn that mother down Burn it on down Burn On a cold and gray chicago morn A poor little baby child is born in the ghetto And if there's one thing that you don't need It's another hungry mouth to feed in the ghetto People don't you understand The child don't need a helping hand in the ghetto And a hungry little boy with a runny nose Plays in the street as the cold wind blows in the ghetto So he starts to roam the streets at night And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight In the ghetto And then he buys a gun and he steals a car And he drive away but he don't get far in th ghetto As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man Face down on the street with a gun in his hand in the ghetto And his momma cries Oh baby burn that disco down You'll gonna burn you'll gonna burn Burn baby burn Disco inferno burn that mother down Burn baby burn Disco inferno burn that mother down Burn baby burn Disco inferno burn that mother down Burn baby burn Disco inferno burn that mother down Burn it down Let the good times roll Get us loose as a goose Up above my head I hear music in the air That makes me know
