LYRICS

We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't danceWell they're no friends of mineSay, we can go where we want to, a place that they will never findAnd we can act like we come from out of this worldLeave the real one far behindAnd we can danceWe can go when we want to, the night is young and so am IAnd we can dress real neat from our hats to our feetAnd surprise them with the victory crySay, we can act if we want to, if we don't nobody willAnd you can act real rude or totally removedAnd I can act like an imbecileSay we can dance, we can danceEverything's out of controlWe can dance, we can danceThey're doing it from pole to poleWe can dance, we can danceEverybody look at your handsWe can dance, we can danceEverybody taken the chanceThe safety danceThe safety danceThe safety danceWe can dance if we want to, we've got all your life and mineAs long as we abuse it we are never going to lose itAnd everything will work out rightSay, we can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dancewell they're no friend ofm ineChorus
