Come on pretty baby lets a move it and a groove it
Well shake oh baby shake oh honey please don't lose it
It's rhythm that gets into your heart and soul
Well let me tell you baby it's called rock 'n roll
They say it's gonna die but honey please lets face it

As transcribed here, "Ballet and calypsos" … seems to be about a bunch of teds in tutus practicing plies at the barre. This is NOT the lyric - it's BALLADS and calypsos. Ian Samwell - who wrote Move It - was responding to a comment on the radio by the jazz critic Steve Race, who expressed a hope that the rock 'n' roll craze would be replaced by ballads. Calypso was another popular craze at the time, esp Harry Belafonte, who has much to apologize for.
