[Intro]
Para-Para dancin'!
Para-Para dancin'!

Dancin' Queen!
Dancin' to anything the D.J. feel is right
Dancin' Queen!
Dancin' to anything the D.J. feel is right

[Verse 1]
Take my hand, let me show you, baby,
Kiss me, kiss me
Para-Para dancin'!

[Verse 2]
Time for me to show all the ladies,
Shake me, shake me
Para-Para dancin'!

[Pre-Chorus]
Shakin' around my body (my body)
Finger with the rhythm
D.J. is mix-in
Baby, I'm feeling so sexy (sexy)
And I want you to know!
(Hey!)

[Chorus - Repeat Twice]
Dancin' Queen!
Dancin' to anything the D.J. feel is right
(Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Dancin' Queen!
Dancin' to everything because I'm hot tonight
(Hey!)

[Verse 3]
I'm so happy, I love this feeling.
Move my hands for
Para-Para dancin'!

[Verse 4]
Let's jump up baby-to the ceiling,
When we rock to
Para-Para dancin'!
