James and I are having the time of our lives, along with the rest of our friends, as we while away our evening dancing and drinking. No alcohol, of course! I made sure of that!

Suddenly, the YMCA comes on, and we all start laughing as the entire hall just starts dancing along...

Young man, there's no need to feel down
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground
I said, young man, cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy
Young man, there's a place you can go
I said, young man, when you're short on your dough
You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time

It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
They have everything for young men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal
You can do whatever you feel

Young man, are you listening to me?
I said, young man, what do you want to be?
I said, young man, you can make real your dreams
But you got to know this one thing
No man does it all by himself
I said, young man, put your pride on the shelf
And just go there, to the Y.M.C.A
I'm sure they can help you today

It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
They have everything for young men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal
You can do whatever you feel

Young man, I was once in your shoes
I said, I was down and out with the blues
I felt no man cared if I were alive
I felt the whole world was so jive
That's when someone came up to me
And said, young man, take a walk up the street
There's a place there called the Y.M.C.A
They can start you back on your way

It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
They have everything for young men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
Y.M.C.A....It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
Young man, young man, there's no need to feel down
Young man, young man, get yourself off the ground
Y.M.C.A....you'll find it at the Y.M.C.A
No man, no man does it all by himself
Young man, young man, put your pride on the shelf
Y.M.C.A....just go to the Y.M.C.A
Young man, young man, are you listening to me?
Young man, young man, what do you wanna be?
Y.M.C.A....you find in the Y.M.C.A....
No man, no man does it all by himself
Young man, young man, put your pride on the shelf
Y.M.C.A....just go to the Y.M.C.A
Young man, young man I was watching your shoes
Young man, young man I was down with the blues

Oh wow! That was fun! But the dance party isn't over yet, as the song Saturday Night starts up, and well...you know how it goes...

Dee dee na na na
Saturday night, I feel the air is getting hot
Like you baby
I'll make you mine, you know I'll take you to the top
I'll drive you crazy

Saturday night, dance, I like the way you move
Pretty baby
It's party time and not one minute we can lose
Be my baby

Da ba da dan dee dee dee da nee na na na
Be my baby
Da ba da dan dee dee dee da nee na na na
Pretty baby

Saturday night, I feel the air is getting hot
Like you baby
I'll make you mine, you know I'll take you to the top
I'll drive you crazy
