Schools use Burt Bacharach, contracts to halt sexy dancing

When I was a teenager we did the Funky Monkey, The Twist, The Chicken, and other odd-sounding named dances. The teachers complained we slow-danced together suggestively, and made sure there was some distance between dancers.

This new dance craze “grinding” is causing those same parents who did the funky monkey to freak out now. Playing Bacharach is downright dirty! What comes around goes around. I think it’s amusing.
