Do the D.A.N.C.E (I'm telling you) 1234, Fight! (get in the middle of the circle) Stick to the b.e.a.t. Get ready to ignite (no one's gonna laugh at you, just get in the middle of the circle!) You were such a p.y.t. Flashing all the lights (you've got moves! I've seen you do your moves, they're sweet man!) Just easy as a.b.c. That's how we make it right (well, if you don't, I will) Do the D.A.N.C.E 1234, Fight Stick to the b.e.a.t Get ready to ignite You were such a p.y.t Flashing all the lights Just easy as a.b.c That's how we make it right Do the D.A.N.C.E Stick to the B.E.A.T (pretty good, pretty good, alright.) Just easy as A.B.C 6Th grade, I remember my first dance Steady searching through the mix for a slowdance Like the marshmallow pieces in the Lucky charms Cause that's golden opportunity for romance But on the fast songs the numbers in between That's when you get to show the lovely ladies what you mean It's when the fellas preen watch me c-walk How I strutted and displayed feathers like a peacock They did the funky chicken, I learned the dirty bird Cause the atlanta falcons did it in the endzone After every touchdown It didn't help me score, did it at the dances and it put me in the friend zone And if I went home, with my head down I lift my chin up Then put it down again Up again Down again Up again Down again Now I'm headbanging to the brand new sound again Your body is a temple My body circus ring trying to hold itself up like a tentpole Every instrumental makes my pencil neck snap back fast until I'm going mental Some call it grinding, some call it bumping, but in the bay we had a funny way of speaking In san francisco, we're the kids of hippies, just a bunch of geeks so we called it freaking In 6th grade, freaked with a 8th hottie named janny and I sang kumbaya Amen hallelujah Until a hater chaperone came and made room for god It's all good though I turn the anger into energy and passion tlll I'm burning like a wood stove I do liquid and the fireball The only raver moves I know But I'm putting on a good show Under the spotlights Neither black nor white It doesn't matter Do the dance (do the dance) As strong as you might Working day and night Whatever happens (don't get embarassed man, just, just go) Do the dance (do the dance) Under the spotlights (no one's gonna judge you) Neither black nor white It doesn't matter (maybe a little bit more) Do the dance (do the dance) As strong as you might Working day and night Whatever happens Do the dance (do the dance) The way you move is a mystery Do the dance You're always there for music and me The way you move is a mystery
