Benji liked the song mama was listening to right now too. It was real slow to start. But by the time the guy got to the chorus, Benji was ready to boogie, he loved this beat. In fact, he was inspired to practice a few dance moves. Benji thought he'd just about perfected a lot of the moves he'd seen on Soul Train. The Soul Train Line was something he looked forward to every Saturday and the heartbeat of this gospel song gave him a chance to work on a few moves like the Soul Train dancers. He was in his own world as he locked his arms, popped his shoulders and moved his feet and teenage hips in what he thought was a funky rhythm. And for a minute he imagined he was under the spinning disco ball dancing with the most beautiful dancer in the room in the Soul Train Line. Demita Joe was the one she'd probably ask Benji to be her partner if she was there right now as he danced with Demita Joe down the line in his mind. Benji got lost in his fantasy and kind of forgot where he was until he opened his eyes. Marcus just shook his head and rolled his eyes without looking up from his cereal. Sid was reading the cereal box but Mamma and Nicky were looking at Benji like he'd lost his mind. Benji, this is God's music. Mamma's look left nothing else to say. Benji sheepishly stopped dancing and avoiding mamma's disapproving scowl. Started over to the kitchen table where his brothers sat. Benji avoided looking at Mamma because he knew she did not play when it came to God, but thought it's my fault, Mamma. The song was fresh. The chorus kind of sounded like con funk sh maybe still though.
