There will come a time when everybody who is lonely
Will be free to sing and dance and love
There will come a time when every evil that we know
Will be an evil that we can rise above
Who cares if hair is long or short or sprayed or partly grayed?
We know that hair ain't where it's at
There will come a time when you won't even be ashamed if you are fat
Wa, wa, wa, wa
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, ah-ah-ah
Day-lay-lay (Deedle-deedle-dee)
Day-lay-lay (Deedle-deedle-dee)
Day-lay-lay (Deedle-deedle-dee)
Day-lay-lay (Deedle-deedle-dee)
Wa, wa, wa, wa
There will come a time when everybody who is lonely
Will be free to sing and dance and love (dance and love)
There will come a time when every evil that we know
Will be an evil that we can rise above (rise above)
Who cares if you're so poor you can't afford
To buy a pair of mod-a-go-go stretch elastic pants?
There will come a time when you can even take your clothes off when you dance
