Now what's that crazy rhythm, coming from the street
The sound of people moving to that Latin beat
Now this ain't Puerto Rico, this is London E18
Everybody's welcome to my own dream

Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Salsa, hey Salsa

Carnival is moving, music in the air
Everybody's grooving, dancing everywhere
Spirit, not location, is the essence of our theme
Why not come and join us in our own dream

And now see the pretty ladies, moving all around
Looking super-sexy, all around the town
Their smiles are so enticing, you wonder what they mean
Everyone's entitled to their own dream

Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Salsa, hey Salsa

??? shake, swing, rock everybody to the ??? beat
??? shake, swing, rock everybody to the ??? beat
Can you move, can you move
Can you shake to the rhythm of the Latin groove
Can you move, can you move
Can you shake to the rhythm of the Latin groove

(C'mon everybody and groove)

So grab a little sunshine, brighten up your day
??? like a Cuban, the continental way
Now Castro loved to Salsa, (cool dictator scene ??)
Why not come and join us in our own dream

Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Everybody Salsa
Salsa, hey Salsa
