’76 Hustle 76 Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Some people don't know how to dance
It's easy, you just move your hips
Now, as a chorus line advance
Tomorrow we'll do tango dips
You see, darlings, the whole world 'round
We've all gone wild for this new sound
[Chorus]
Hustle '76
Everybody dance now
You've got to dance now
Hustle '76
Ooh don't make romance now
Please, no romance now
Hustle '76
Everybody dance your life away
[Verse 2]
They sold a record on TV
Big melodies with simple beats
Dance music for the AM dial
Lyrics, alas, not for aesthetes
What can I tell you? I was ten
I should have been in bed by then
I order
[Chorus]
Hustle '76
Everybody dance now
You've got to dance now
Hustle '76
Ooh don't make romance now
Please, no romance now
Hustle '76
Everybody dance your life away
Hustle '76
Everybody dance now
You've got to dance now
Hustle '76
Ooh don't make romance now
Please, no romance now
Hustle '76
Everybody dance your life away
Hustle '76
Everybody dance your life away

In the album’s lyric booklet, Merritt tells Daniel Handler:
