Songtext The safety dance The Echoing Green

The safety dance

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

(I say) We can go where we want to,
There's a place they'll never find
And we can act like we come
From out of this world
Leave the real one far behind,
And we can dance.
Ah we can go when we want to,
The 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

(I say) We can act if want to,
If we don't nobody will
And you can act real rude
And totally removed
And I can act like an imbecile

I say, we can dance, we can dance
Everything's out control
We can dance, we can dance
We're doing it pole to pole

We can dance, we can dance
Everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance
Everybody's takin' the chance
Safety dance
Oh well the safety dance...
