Dean's P.O.V
Later that same evening I was preparing for my shift at The Royal when I turned to Mary, who was sitting in bed, and said.
" Are you going to be alright here while I'm at The Royal? I can call out".
" I'll be fine since Freddie and the others are here, so go to work. It seems like you need to get out of the house for a bit anyway" She grinned softly as she got out of bed and kissed me on the cheek.
" Alright hun I love you I'll be home at 2:30" I returned the grin.
" Okay sounds good I love you too be careful".
"I will".
At that moment I kissed her goodbye before picking up my duffel bag that contains one and a change of clothes before heading out the door and walking down the street to the club. Once I got there, I took her changed clothes, and went upstairs to Roger's office to ask if you needed anything after he declined I went back downstairs and stood at my post inside the door as I heard Play That Funky Music by Wild Cherry come over the stereo.
"Hey, do it now
Hey, once I was a boogie singer
Playin' in a rock-and-roll band
I never had any problems
Burnin' down the one-night standsAnd everything around me
Got to start feelin' so low
And I decided quickly
Yes, I did
To disco down and check out the showYeah they were dancin' and singin'
And movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me
Somebody turned around and shouted"Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music, white boy
Lay down that boogie
And play that funky music 'til you die."'Til you die?
I tried to understand this
I thought that they were out of their minds
How could I be so foolish
To not see I was the one behindSo still I kept on fighting
Well, losing every step by the way
... we can do
I said I must go back there
I have to go back
And check to see if things are still the sameWhen they were dancin' and singin'
And movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me
Somebody turned around and shouted"Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music, white boy
Lay down that boogie
And play that funky music 'til you die."'Til you die?
Oh, 'til you dieGonna play some electrified funky music
Hey, wait a minute
Now first it wasn't easy
Changing rock-and-rolling minds
And things were gettin' shaky
I thought I'd have to leave it behindOh, but now it's so much better (it's so much better)
I'm funking out in every way
But I'll never lose that feelin' (you know, I won't)
Of how I learned my lesson that dayWhen they were dancin' and singin'
And movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me
Somebody turned around and shouted"Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music, white boy
Lay down that boogie
And play that funky music 'til you die."'Til you die?
Oh, 'til you dieThey shouted
"Play that funky music
Play that funky music
Play that funky music
You got to keep on playin' funky music
Play that funky music
Play that funky music
Play that funky music
Gonna take you high and low.""Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music rightPlay that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right?"................"...............Then I heard.
"Uncle Dean?"
That's when I turned to see my niece and nephew.
" Juliet, James. What's the matter?"..............
