With the sidewalks trading love
As subway lights grow brighter
We're just another hype
But the pressure's getting harder
(Get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
All lover's etiquette
Make love on first impression
And adolescent sex
With juvenile intentions
(Get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
Whatever gets you through the night
(Just keep on dancing)
Whatever gets you through the night
(Just keep on dancing)
(Get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
Well, the lady buys a thrill
Excitement in succession
But a heartache won't partake
In articulate obsession
(Get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
Well, pretty things at rest
No courtesy surprising
For love is heaven blessed
All catastrophes denying
(Get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
Whatever gets you through the night
(Just keep on dancing)
Whatever gets you through the night
(Just keep on dancing)
Well, you're out on the street
With your lover's infections
Count impossibilities by limitation
And your body still damp
From your one-room apartment
And your heartache reminds me
Love's [unverified] any doubt
You submerge again, emerge again
Just get out the strain
Whatever gets you through the night
(Just keep on dancing)
Whatever gets you through the night
(Just keep on dancing)
(Get up, get up, get up take it much higher)
