Sorry, Brooklyn, Dancing Won't Solve Anything
Baby, grab your keys
Let's hit the show
'Cause when the world's on fire
It's the one place we can go
Where we can just dance until we're dead
And it never really matters what they said
So put a cork in the guy up front
Don't let the world stop dancing
The kids will just dance until they're dead
It never really mattered what we said
So we gotta just shut the fuck up
Don't make the world stop dancing
Step back, everything's alright
We've all heard the facts but we're drunk tonight
Ooh, looks like somebody read a book - wow!
But there's no solace found in listening to the underground
Step back, everything's alright
We've all heard the facts but we're drunk tonight
Ooh, looks like somebody read a book - wow!
But there's no solace found in listening to the underground
'Cause when your ear's put down to the bottom of the street
You can't dance, man, it's really hard to move your feet
Shut up, shut up, don't think, shut up, shut up since it's not that bad
No, it's not that bad, no
Obviously something isn't right
But if ignorance is bliss
Well, would you rather smile or fight?
Well, I'll take fight
The kids just dance until they're dead
It never really mattered what we said
So we gotta just move on out
And let the kids keep dancing
So we gotta just move on out
And let the kids keep dancing
So we gotta just move on out
And let the kids keep dancing
Let's hit the show
'Cause when the world's on fire
It's the one place we can go
Where we can just dance until we're dead
And it never really matters what they said
So put a cork in the guy up front
Don't let the world stop dancing
The kids will just dance until they're dead
It never really mattered what we said
So we gotta just shut the fuck up
Don't make the world stop dancing
Step back, everything's alright
We've all heard the facts but we're drunk tonight
Ooh, looks like somebody read a book - wow!
But there's no solace found in listening to the underground
Step back, everything's alright
We've all heard the facts but we're drunk tonight
Ooh, looks like somebody read a book - wow!
But there's no solace found in listening to the underground
'Cause when your ear's put down to the bottom of the street
You can't dance, man, it's really hard to move your feet
Shut up, shut up, don't think, shut up, shut up since it's not that bad
No, it's not that bad, no
Obviously something isn't right
But if ignorance is bliss
Well, would you rather smile or fight?
Well, I'll take fight
The kids just dance until they're dead
It never really mattered what we said
So we gotta just move on out
And let the kids keep dancing
So we gotta just move on out
And let the kids keep dancing
So we gotta just move on out
And let the kids keep dancing
