It´s darker than the dark bottom
It rumbles more than the Rumba
If you think that the two-steps got ´em
Just take a look at this number
It´s got that certain swing
That makes you wanna sing

Don´t go left, but be polite
Move to the right
Doing the reactionary

Close your eyes to where you´re bound
And you´ll be found
Doing the reactionary

All the best dictators do it
Millionaires keep steppin´ to it
The Four Hundred love to sing it
Ford and Morgan swing it

Hands up high and shake your head
You´ll soon see red
Doing the reactionary

Don´t go left, but be polite
Move to the right
Doing the reactionary

Close your eyes to where you´re bound
And you´ll be found
Doing the reactionary

All the best dictators do it
Millionaires keep steppin´ to it
The Four Hundred love to sing it
Ford and Morgan swing it

Hands up high and shake your head
You´ll soon see red
Doing the reac-
Doing the reac-
Tionary

So get in it, begin it
It´s smart, oh, so very
To do the reactionary!
