Lyrics Come Dancing - The Kinks
They
put
a
parking
lot
on
a
piece
of
land
Where
the
supermarket
used
to
stand
Before
that,
they
put
up
a
bowling
alley
On
the
site
that
used
to
be
the
local
palais
That's
where
the
big
bands
used
to
come
and
play
My
sister
went
there
on
a
Saturday
Come
dancing
All
her
boyfriends
used
to
come
and
call
Why
not
come
dancing?
It's
only
natural
Another
Saturday,
another
date
She
would
be
ready,
but
she'd
always
make
him
wait
In
the
hallway,
in
anticipation
He
didn't
know
the
night
would
end
up
in
frustration
He'd
end
up
blowing
all
his
wages
for
the
week
All
for
a
cuddle
and
a
peck
on
the
cheek
Come
dancing
That's
how
they
did
it
when
I
was
just
a
kid
And
when
they
said
"come
dancing"
My
sister
always
did
My
sister
should
have
come
in
a
midnight
And
my
mom
would
always
sit
up
and
wait
It
always
ended
up
in
a
big
row
When
my
sister
used
to
get
home
late
Out
of
my
window
I
could
see
them
in
the
moonlight
Two
silhouettes
saying
good
night
by
the
garden
gate
What
are
you
doing
out
there?
Come
on,
you're
gonna
be
out
there
all
night?
The
day
they
knocked
down
the
palais
My
sister
stood
and
cried
The
day
they
knocked
down
the
palais
Part
of
my
childhood
died,
just
died
Now
I'm
grown
up
and
playing
in
a
band
And
there's
a
car
park
where
the
palais
used
to
stand
My
sister's
married
and
she
lives
on
an
estate
Her
daughters
go
out,
now
it's
her
turn
to
wait
She
knows
they
get
away
with
things
she
never
could
But
if
I
asked
her
I
wonder
if
she
would
Come
dancing
Come
on
sister,
have
yourself
a
ball
Don't
be
afraid
to
come
dancing
It's
only
natural
Come
dancing
Just
like
the
palais
on
a
Saturday
And
all
your
friends
would
come
dancing
While
the
big
bands
used
to
play
