Bad Luck Streak in Dancing School is the fourth album by American singer/songwriter Warren Zevon, released in 1980.
"Play It All Night Long" is a satire/homage to the dead band's song (Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama"). It is probably the only popular song ever written which contains a reference to brucellosis.
The term "dancing school" has been used as a euphemism for a brothel since the mid-17th century.

Famous quotes containing the words luck, streak and/or dancing:
“There is no luck in literary reputation. They who make up the final verdict upon every book are not the partial and noisy readers of the hour when it appears; but a court as of angels, a public not to be bribed, not to be entreated, and not to be overawed, decides upon every man’s title to fame. Only those books come down which deserve to last.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“No gray hairs streak my soul,
no grandfatherly fondness there!
I shake the world with the might of my voice,
and walk—handsome,
twentytwoyearold.”
—Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)
“It may be possible to do without dancing entirely. Instances have been known of young people passing many, many months successively, without being at any ball of any description, and no material injury accrue either to body or mind; Mbut when a beginning is made—when felicities of rapid motion have once been, though slightly, felt—it must be a very heavy set that does not ask for more.”
—Jane Austen (1775–1817)
