[Verse 1]

It's at times like this the great heaven knows

That we wish we had not so many clothes

So let's loosen up with a playful tease

Like all lovers did through the centuries


[Chorus]

We're just following ancient history

If I strip for you, will you strip for me?

We're just following ancient history

If I strip for you, will you strip for me?

Uh-huh-huh


[Verse 2]

When it gets so hot, the end of the day

You may find your clothes getting in the way

If a pretty dress hides your true desire

Fold it nice and slow, throw it on the fire


[Chorus]

We're just following ancient history

If I strip for you, will you strip for me?

We're just following ancient history

If I strip for you, will you strip for me?

Uh-huh-huh


[Verse 3]

We don't need to see what the butler saw

Or a mirrored room with a mirrored floor

All those sneaky looks gazing down on you

Are no substitute for our rendezvous


[Chorus]

We're just following ancient history

If I strip for you, will you strip for me?

We're just following ancient history

If I strip for you, will you strip for me?

Uh-huh-huh


[Interlude]

It’s at times like this that great heaven knows

That we wish we had not so many clothes

So let's loosen up with a playful tease

Like all lovers did through the centuries


[Instrumental Interlude]


[Verse 4]

If you think it's cheap or a bit risqué

Please don't say a word, I'll just slip away

I am not a man who believes in lies

Like an octopus with the x-ray eyes


[Bridge]

Don't freeze up, girl, you're looking quite a sight (Uh-huh-huh)

Be generous (Uh-huh-huh), I want it all tonight!


[Chorus]

We're just following ancient history

(Don't freeze up, girl, you're looking quite a sight)

If I strip for you, will you strip for me? (Uh-huh-huh)

(You got it, be generous, I want it all tonight!)

We're just following ancient history

(Don't freeze up, girl, you're looking quite a sight)

If I strip for you, will you strip for me? (Uh-huh-huh)

(Be generous, I want it all tonight!)

We're just following ancient history

(Don't freeze up, girl, you're looking quite a sight)

If I strip for you, will you strip for me? (Uh-huh-huh)

(Be generous, I want it all tonight! You got it!)

We're just following ancient history

(Don't freeze up, girl, you're looking quite a sight)

If I strip for you, will you strip for me?
