The tension is there in the hall as they stand Soon the dancing will start To square old Syd Watter's band Anticipation is calm, mainly under the arm As they wait for the dancing to start Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow There's a plumber from Hackney with a hooker from Bow Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow What once held up high I'm afraid now hangs down low The costumes are strange just like the people inside Some men four foot six tall, some women four foot six wide Still the floor's reinforced for the onslaught to come As they wait for the dancing to start Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow Yes they glide round the floor just like hippos in snow Quick,quick,slow,slow,quick Here's the Irish contestants, yes it's Doreen and Mick They each have a number so it's easy to spot Those who can tango and those who cannot With their arms in the air and their legs wide apart They prepare for the dancing to start Good lord a couple out there are really having a go He's turned upside down, their bodies now intertwined What's their number, ay yes, sixty-nine And Doris there who makes all her own clothes Unfortunately it's Sydney who's wearing them Formation teams in a line Some full of hope and some full of wine You know the reason why they're there more or less And their idol's dress And our solo tenor saxophonist has done for music What Walt Disney has done for blue movies Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow Everyone's eyes are on the big silver cup Come in number seven, 'cos your time is up It must please one couple out there on their own 'Cos everyone else has gone home
