Do Your Time On The Planet – Lime

Do your time on the planet
Just like in the movies
It’s just the big show
Have the time of your life
But don’t be too choosy
It’s not so serious
Wear your sweet silver jacket
Put on all your goodies
Before it’s too late
Do your time on the planet
Just like in the movies
It’s just the big show, baby

I can’t see no complication
Never had a broken heart
Don’t rely on superstition
‘Cause I know the part, uh-huh

Do your time on the planet
Just like in the movies
It’s just the big show
Have the time of your life
But don’t be too choosy
It’s not so serious
Wear your sweet silver jacket
Put on all your goodies
Before it’s too late
Do your time on the planet
Just like in the movies
It’s just the big show, baby

I don’t need no first-class ticket
When I’m in my dancing shoes
When I’m out and getting with it
I don’t have nothing to lose

Do your time on the planet
Just like in the movies
It’s just the big show
Have the time of your life
But don’t be too choosy
It’s not so serious
Wear your sweet silver jacket
Put on all your goodies
Before it’s too late
Do your time on the planet
Just like in the movies
It’s just the big show, baby

I don’t care if it’s make-believe
When the true heart’s drew its dream
It make me reach out to believe
Every moment feels so true

Joanne Daniels – After The Rainbow 12″ – 1985 Genre Defining Hi-NRG

Pure, vintage eighty-five Hi NRG right here, kids.

Bodymap adopted this track for their show in 1985 and it became our “must dance” track for the season. That year they brought their show to the Palladium in NYC. This track reminds me of those shows, foreign dancefloors, coming home exhausted at dawn and being ready for another night out by sundown.

Hi-NRG. It’ll wear you out.
