    Everybody all around the world
    Gotta tell you what I just heard
    There's gonna be a party all over the world
    I got a message on the radio
    But where it came from, I don't really know
    And I heard these voices calling all over the world

    All over the world
    Everybody got the word
    Everybody, everywhere, is gonna feel tonight

    Everybody walking down the street
    Everybody moving to the beat
    They're gonna get hot down in the U.S.A
    New York, Detroit, L.A.
    We're gonna take a trip across the sea
    Everybody come along with me
    We're gonna hit the night down in gay Paris
    C'est la vie, having your cup of tea

    All over the world
    Everybody got the word
    Everybody, everywhere, is gonna feel tonight

    (All over the world)
    London, Hamburg, Paris, Rome
    Rio, Hong Kong, Tokyo
    L.A., New York, Amsterdam
    Monte Carlo, Shard End and

    All over the world
    Everybody got the word
    Everybody, everywhere, is gonna feel tonight

    Everybody all around the world
    Gotta tell you what I just heard
    Everybody walking down the street
    I know a place where we all can meet
    Everybody gonna have a good time
    Everybody will shine 'til the daylight

    All over the world
    Everybody got the word
    Everybody, everywhere, is gonna feel tonight

    All over the world
    Everybody got the word
    All over the world
    Everybody got the word
    All over the world
    Everybody got the word Writer/s: Jeff Lynne
