Safety Dance LINK  Men Without Hats

We can dance if we want to... We can leave your friends behind....
'Cause your friends don't dance... And if they don't dance....
Well, they're no friends of mine....

Say, we can go where we want to.... A place where they will never find ....
And we can act like ,we come From out of this world....
Leave the real one far behind ....And we can dance.... Or sing
.
....We can go when we want to Night is young and so am I ...
And we can dress real neat From our hats to our feet ..
And surprise 'em with the victory cry Say, we can act if we want to ...
If we don't, nobody will ...And you can act real rude and totally removed...
And I can act like an imbecile.... And say, we can dance, we can dance

.....Everything's out of control We can dance, we can dance
They're doing it from pole to pole ...We can dance, we can dance Everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance Everybody's taking the chance Safety dance
Oh well, the safety dance Ah yes, the safety dance We can dance if we want to
We've got all your life and mine As long as we abuse it, never gonna lose it

Everything'll work out right I say, we can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind Because your friends don't dance
And if they don't dance Well, they're no friends of mine I say, we can dance, we can dance Everything's out of control We can dance, we can dance We're doing it from pole to pole We can dance, we can dance Everybody look at your hands We can dance, we can dance Everybody's taking the chance Oh well, the safety dance Ah yes, the safety dance Oh well, the safety dance Oh well, the safety dance Oh yes, the safety dance Oh, the safety dance, yeah Well, it's the safety dance It's the safety dance Well, it's the safety dance Well, it's the safety dance Oh, it's the safety dance Oh, it's the safety dance
