The room's all set and the door bell is ringing
The first to arrive switch their dials to swinging
The lights are dim to match the conversation
Strangers grin that stoned expression
He looks so cool says a girl with a giggle
His handkerchief bulge slipping from the middle
Strokes his chin as his eyes refocus
Tonight's victim smiles back

He's gettin' so excited
They're revving it up
He's getting so excited
Excited

The music's dark begins to get blacker
People start to move towards each other
Some hold back some peel off the layers
The atmosphere erupts with the drunken liberators
Walls flare up with animated shadows
As dancers jump like emancipated jackals
It won't be long till the first couple's clinches
She turns to him to say
"I'd do anything for love, but I won't do that!"
She's getting so excited
They're trashing it up
She's getting so excited
Excited

The smoke mist clears to reveal drunken Jimmy
Whose just turned up, seen his woman getting friendly
With a charmer boy in a second-hand leather
Lights go green there's gonna be danger With two great strides there's a push and scuffle
You can't make out through the naked muscle
A high pitched scream a broken bottle A ribbon of blood on the floor

They're getting so excited
But I want some more
They're getting so excited
Down on the floor
They're getting so excited
Excited, excited, excited
They're getting so excited
But I'm getting bored, I'm just getting bored... continue and fade

Bonnie Tyler

Bonnie Tyler (born Gaynor Hopkins) was born on June 8, 1951 in Skewen, Wales. She was one of the most famous singers in the 80’s and is known for her noticeably rough and husky vocals.

Her first single, charting at #9 in her home country, “Lost In France,” put her in the public eye. After a bit of silence throughout the late 70s and early 80s, her best-selling and best-performing single on the charts of all time, “Total Eclipse of The Heart,” was released. Her 5th album, Faster Than The Speed of Night, also topped the charts in a few countries possibly because it contained Total Eclipse. Another notable song, “Holding Out for a Hero,” was released one year later for the Footloose soundtrack.

Tyler married Robert Sullivan, an Olympic judo contestant in 1973. They have no children. As of 2018, she is 66 years old and still in good health.
