when he was about seventeen

he stole a magazine

"dancing queen"

the front page girl called marilyn

she looked pretty, lean

and quite obscene



he knew

she'd never let him down

like every other one in town

she was the only one



marilyn the dancing queen

was smiling from his

TV screen

marilyn the dancing queen

was always loving in his

sweetest dream



he tried to call the magazine

left a massage on

their answer machine

that he's in love with marilyn

if she could phone him back

he would be keen



he knew

she'd never let him down

like every other one in town

she was the only one



marilyn the dancing queen

was smiling from his

TV screen

marilyn the dancing queen

was always loving in his

sweetest dream



marilyn, oh marilyn

champagne, strawberries

and cream

marylin, oh marilyn

satin,lace and velveteen

sweet sweet dream

sweet swett dream
