Death of a Disco Dancer Lyrics by The Smiths

Complete

1987

[Verse 1]
The death of a disco dancer
Well, it happens a lot 'round here
And if you think peace is a common goal
That goes to show how little you know
[Verse 2]
The death of a disco dancer
Well, I'd rather not get involved
I never talk to my neighbour
I'd rather not get involved
[Interlude]
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
[Chorus]
Love, peace and harmony?
Love, peace and harmony?
Oh, very nice, very nice
Very nice, very nice
But maybe in the next world
Love, peace and harmony?
Love, peace and harmony?
Oh, very nice, very nice
Very nice, very nice, very nice
But maybe in the next world, maybe in the next world
Maybe in the next world
Love, peace and harmony?
Love, peace and harmony?
Oh, very nice, very nice, very nice
But maybe in the next world
Maybe in the next world
[Outro]
(The next world, the next world)
(The next world, the next world)
The next world, the next world
Oh-oh-oh-ah
The death of a disco dancer
The death of a disco dancer
The death of a disco dancer
[Instrumental Outro]
