You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for the place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a King
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave them burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
Once he was so famous that little old clown
Everybody used to know his name
Now he is a nameless but happy old guy
The children laugh if only he goes by
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
When the sun is shining he goes to the park
Climbs the empty band stand on the green
Doing for the children his famous routin
So they still laugh
When slowly he walks home
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
Hello hello mr monkey
You're still so fast and funky
Hello hello mr monkey
You should have been a clown
