As I walked through that hospital door
I was sewn up like a coat
I got a smile from the bite of the wind
Watched the fresh fall of snow
I knew then that my life took a turn
I felt strong and secure
And with adhesive tape over my nose
I felt almost demure
Goodbye Sister Disco
With your flashing trash lamps
Goodbye Sister Disco
And to your clubs and your tramps
Goodbye Sister Disco
My dancin's left you behind
Goodbye now you're solo
Black plastic deaf dumb and blind
Bye
Goodbye Sister Disco
Now I go
I go where the music fits my soul
And I
I will never let go
I'll never let go
Till the echo of the street fight has dissolved
I will choose nightmares and cold stormy seas
I will take over your grief and disease
I'll stay beside you and comfort your soul
When you are lonely and broken and old
Now I walk with a man in my face
Ooh a woman in my hair
I've got you all lookin' out through my eyes
My feet are a prayer
Goodbye Sister Disco
With your flashing trash lamps
Goodbye Sister Disco
And to your clubs and your tramps
Goodbye Sister Disco
My dancin's left you behind
Goodbye now you're solo
Black plastic deaf dumb and blind
I was sewn up like a coat
I got a smile from the bite of the wind
Watched the fresh fall of snow
I knew then that my life took a turn
I felt strong and secure
And with adhesive tape over my nose
I felt almost demure
Goodbye Sister Disco
With your flashing trash lamps
Goodbye Sister Disco
And to your clubs and your tramps
Goodbye Sister Disco
My dancin's left you behind
Goodbye now you're solo
Black plastic deaf dumb and blind
Bye
Goodbye Sister Disco
Now I go
I go where the music fits my soul
And I
I will never let go
I'll never let go
Till the echo of the street fight has dissolved
I will choose nightmares and cold stormy seas
I will take over your grief and disease
I'll stay beside you and comfort your soul
When you are lonely and broken and old
Now I walk with a man in my face
Ooh a woman in my hair
I've got you all lookin' out through my eyes
My feet are a prayer
Goodbye Sister Disco
With your flashing trash lamps
Goodbye Sister Disco
And to your clubs and your tramps
Goodbye Sister Disco
My dancin's left you behind
Goodbye now you're solo
Black plastic deaf dumb and blind
