Bop 'til you drop

In the hot city

Keep on working day and night

Don't stop 'til you get what you want



Bop 'til you drop

In the hot city

Burn the candle, burn it bright

Love will have to wait



You wake up wired and draw on your makeup

And the city breathes

And the city jumps to life

Lately it seems

Your time is all used up

Chasing dreams

Of money and the good life



But there is something you've been thinking of

Lately you're feeling the power of love

Everybody says it's so hard to hold

The alarm rings

You gotta get up, you gotta get up



Bop 'til you drop

In the hot city

Keep on working day and night

Don't stop 'til you get what you want



Bop 'til you drop

'til you sit pretty

Burn the candle, burn it bright

Love will have to wait



People say you're the lucky one

But you don't believe it

And you want to stop

And you want to take some time

To sus' out a feeling and look for a reason

And the flesh is weak

But the spirit is willing



'cause there is something you've been thinking of

Lately you're feeling the power of love

Everybody says it's so, so hard to hold

The alarm rings

You gotta get up, you gotta get up



Bop 'til you drop

In the hot city

Keep on working day and night

Don't stop 'til you get what you want



Bop 'til you drop

'til you sit pretty

Burn the candle, burn it bright

Love won't, love won¹t wait



There is something you've been thinking of

Lately you're feeling the power of love

Everybody says it's so hard to hold

The alarm rings

You gotta get up, you gotta get up



Bop 'til you drop

In the hot city

Keep on working day and night
