Respectable Lyrics
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't never gonna be respectable
It's a occupation, we're a dancing nation
We keep the pressure on every night
Explanations are complications
We don't need to know the "Where?" or "Why?"
Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take
Taking chances, bold advances
Don't care if you think we're out of line
Conversation is interrogation
Get out of here, we just don't have the time
Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't never gonna be respectable (respectable)
Like us, hate us, but you'll never change us
We ain't never gonna be respectable (respectable)
Respectable
Respectable
Respectable
Hesitation is just frustration
Give us the music and we're alright
On each occasion, for your information
We can look after ourselves alright
Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't never gonna be respectable (respectable)
Like us, hate us, but you'll never change us
We ain't never gonna be respectable (respectable)
Respectable
Respectable (ahahaha)
Respectable
Fascination is our sensation
We like to put ourselves on the line
Recreation is our destination
So, don't wait up for us tonight
Take, take, take, take, take-take, t-t-take, take
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't never gonna be respectable (respectable)
Like us, hate us but you'll never change us
We ain't never gonna be respectable (respectable)
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't never gonna be respectable (respectable)
Like us, hate us but you'll never change us
We ain't never gonna be respectable (respectable)
Take or leave us, only please believe us
We ain't never gonna be respectable
