Wham bam boogie, all night long
Come on, move it, bang that gong
You can't lose it, find the one
Bass line screws it down, platinum

You're on overdrive and it's justified
E-F-gee whiz, you decide
You're more qualified
Let's push to the head of the cue

I've got my binoculars, wham bam boogie
We left our scruples in the middle of the road
And it's bad for us to leave them there

Money tends to do that to you
Kick'em down, never let them say that, no, no

Wham bam boogie, all night long
Stompin' music, rock that song

Hey, let's improvise
We might win a prize
We need exercise
Let's get paralyzed

Wham bam boogie, groove on stun
Stompin' music, rock that song
Wham bam boogie, all night long
Can't refuse it, it's too much fun

Robert Palmer

Robert Allen Palmer (19 January 1949 – 26 September 2003) was an English singer-songwriter[1] and musician. He was known for his distinctive soulful voice, eclectic mix of musical styles on his albums, combining soul, jazz, rock, pop, reggae and blues and sartorial acumen. He found success both in his solo career and with the Power Station, and had Top 10 songs in both the UK and the US.

His iconic music videos directed by British fashion photographer Terence Donovan for the hits “Addicted to Love” and “Simply Irresistible” featured identically dressed dancing women with pale faces, dark eye makeup and bright red lipstick, which resembled the women in the art of Patrick Nagel, an artist popular in the 1980s. Palmer’s involvement in the music industry commenced in the 1960s, covered four decades and included a spell with Vinegar Joe.
