Trip The Light Fantastic

[kags]

I have these lyrics going round in my head - 'I'm all dressed up (something something something), Trip the light fantastic and we're on our way'. Does anybody recognise them? I do hope it doesn't turn out to be something embarassing.

LOL Kags - Is it "Sidewalks of New York" by any chance? Look here: - http://www.kididdles.com/mouseum/s033.html

Thanks PaulB but it's not that. I remembered another line though "too much work makes Jack such a sad boy". I have Googled it - no joy -it's driving me potty!

This is a really long shot, possibly "Stand Up For The Rights Of Man", by Mike Oldfield, it was the B side to Moonlight Shadow.

It's Nightclubbing, by David Essex, and the actual lyric is Get dressed up wear something flashy trip the light fantastic and we're on our way too much work makes jack such a dull boy now we're coming out to play

simon b you are wonderful - it has all come flooding back to me now, (i was a bit of a David Essex fan - see I thought it would be a bit embarrassing................) Now I can have my sanity back. Thanks to everyone for your suggestions, much appreciated
