I know it’s been said,
That disco is dead,
Tho It may be in the past,
But not so fast,
Whats’ that sound
Let’s Turn the Beat Around,
When I put on my Boogie Shoes,
I just can’t lose,
This ain’t no jive,
I Will Survive,
No time for a wife,
I Love the Nightlife,
That girl is pretty swell,
She Rings My Bell,
Don’t want no tussle,
I just want to Hustle,
If you want to play,
Come on down to the Y.M.C.A.,
Maybe if I have the Last Dance,
She’ll give me a chance,
This could be tough,
I’m dealing with some Hot Stuff.
She said no kinda mean,
She thinks she’s a Dancing Queen,
She actually called me a geek,
In reality I’m a Super Freak,
What’s this I’ve seen,
It’s the Dancing Machine Billie Jean,
I’m not taking a dive,
I am here Stayin Alive.
You might think disco sucks,
But we all have an inner Disco Duck,

Author Notes
This is the longest poem I've ever written. I took advantage of the no style clause. You true poets are going to hate this no meters and forced rhymes, but that's ok I can't get better without feedback. Have at it people.
