Get Up and Dance
You can say you're feelin' sick
But that won't do the trick
Start contemplating suicide
But you had better be quick
May not wanna, but know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
You can say that the band's too loud
And you can't hear a sound
Pretend your ears have given up
But you'll need to stick around
May not wanna, but know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
There is no escaping it
Sitting there hangin' tough
Long before the night is done
You'll be gittin' down, strutting your stuff
Musical Break
There is no escaping it
Sitting there hangin' tough
Long before the night is done
You'll be gittin' down, strutting your stuff
You can say that you're indisposed
And ache in every limb
Still the pressure grows and grows
And you'll end up giving in
May not wanna, but know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
Remembering why you came tonight
You're headed for the floor
You'll need to do some "hands on" work
If you're ever gonna score
Now you wanna, you know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
Now you wanna, you know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
Now you wanna, you know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
But that won't do the trick
Start contemplating suicide
But you had better be quick
May not wanna, but know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
You can say that the band's too loud
And you can't hear a sound
Pretend your ears have given up
But you'll need to stick around
May not wanna, but know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
There is no escaping it
Sitting there hangin' tough
Long before the night is done
You'll be gittin' down, strutting your stuff
Musical Break
There is no escaping it
Sitting there hangin' tough
Long before the night is done
You'll be gittin' down, strutting your stuff
You can say that you're indisposed
And ache in every limb
Still the pressure grows and grows
And you'll end up giving in
May not wanna, but know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
Remembering why you came tonight
You're headed for the floor
You'll need to do some "hands on" work
If you're ever gonna score
Now you wanna, you know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
Now you wanna, you know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
Now you wanna, you know you're gonna
Have to get up and dance
