Lyrics and translation

Original

Monday mornin', it's time to get up

Two cups of coffee and she runs for the bus

Looks in the window and fixes her hair

Nobody notices and nobody cares

She admits it ain't no kinda life

Workin' 9 to 5 you know

She's only happy when she's dancin'

There ain't no place she'd rather be

When she's dancin'

Just her heart and her soul and her fantasies, yeah

When Friday evenin' finally rolls around

She grabs a taxi and she heads uptown

Goes to a place they call "The Ball And Chain"

Nothin' matters until Monday so she goes insane

Well it's a bitch tryin' to make ends meet

But that's the way the story goes

She's only happy when she's dancin'

There ain't nothin' makes her feel so free

When she's dancin'

The girl's outrageous and it's plain to see, yeah

She ain't got much but she got independence

Yeah, she's doin' alright

His eyes are on her as the evenin's endin'

But she ain't goin' for no mystery

Because nobody rides for free

She's only happy when she's dancin'

C'mon, let's dance, dance

Dancin', there ain't no place she'd rather be

When she's dancin'

Just her heart and her soul and her fantasies

Dancin', yeah

Dancin', yeah

She's only happy (when she's dancin')

C'mon, yeah
