I got dressed up so fine
Went to the ball
Girls wanted to dance
Boys stood by the wall
Too scared to make a move
Keeping out of the light
'Til the DJ said,
"This is Barry White"
Thought she gave me a smile
Started making my move
I stepped into the light
Oh, I did it so cool
It was my favourite song
I was sure that she liked it too
I smelled something was wrong
When she looked at my shoes
And then he took you dancing
That boy had all the right moves
Gave me the middle finger
Waving it slow with the groove
That was the night I started hating Barry White
Everyone was laughing
I was the joke of the night
I felt the rage but I knew I was
Too skinny to fight
That was the night I started hating Barry White
From that night on I can't stand Barry White
Went to the ball
Girls wanted to dance
Boys stood by the wall
Too scared to make a move
Keeping out of the light
'Til the DJ said,
"This is Barry White"
Thought she gave me a smile
Started making my move
I stepped into the light
Oh, I did it so cool
It was my favourite song
I was sure that she liked it too
I smelled something was wrong
When she looked at my shoes
And then he took you dancing
That boy had all the right moves
Gave me the middle finger
Waving it slow with the groove
That was the night I started hating Barry White
Everyone was laughing
I was the joke of the night
I felt the rage but I knew I was
Too skinny to fight
That was the night I started hating Barry White
From that night on I can't stand Barry White
