Dance
Dance
Dance
They dance all around with one foot on the ground
With their eyes on your "prize"
That turns to surprise
When they find out
What it's really about
And then it's too late
And then it's a shame
That they've shut
That
Gate
So you
Dance
Dance
Dance
Ya dance all around with one foot on the ground
Quietly hiding and not making a sound
Suspecting figures peek over to see
What you've been up to
And what you believe
Your business is theirs
And business isn't fair
Privacy
Hypocrisy
If roles were reversed
Then they would care
So you
Dance
Dance
Dance
Fuck all ye fuckers
Who believe only what they see
Fuck all ye suckers
With only their eyes do they see
Fuck all ye preachers
Who push their beliefs
I have my own way
And do my own thing
I say what I say
And believe completely in me
As I
Dance
Dance
Dance
"And believe completely in me"
ReplyDeleteYoko and me?
Dude, that's deep. The only improvement I could suggest is a You Tube video of you shaking your butt to the beat of life.
Gorilla Bananas- Oh now... Don't drag that poor Yoko OH NO into this. :)
ReplyDeleteHey, if you'll join me in that YouTube dance video for some butt shaking moves, I'd do it. We'll make a great team and we'll finally get the recognition in the world of dance we deserve.
Woo hoo.
klahanie- Hahahaha. Thanks man, for the Safety Dance video you passed onto me on Facebook. It's been ages since I've seen that thing and I forgot just how crazy it was. Midgets, people wearing animals masks, clowns, a guy singing that looks to be criminally insane, wacky dance moves... and so on. That video had it all, man. I think they were either all stoned out of their minds or completely fuckin' nuts when they created that or both. Either way, it always made me wanna dance. I guess because I'm just slightly loopy, myself.
ReplyDeleteHey Gary, I want you to have a shake-your-bootyful-weekend! Maybe you, Gorilla Bananas and I can get together and do a dance number for YouTube, sometime soon. :)
You know, sometimes I worry about you Kelly. Is it me? I mean I don't knbow what's occuring here.
ReplyDeleteMind you I am sliding under the table, so to speak, after half a bottle of Remy Martin.
Salut, old chap!
(You do brighten my day, you know)
The Safety Dance was so in my head last week. lol.
ReplyDeleteAwesome lyrics here!!!
Sir Tom Eagerly- What? You're not fabulous anymore? What happened?
ReplyDeletePut your worries about me to rest, Sir Tom. I'm still the same ol' lovable lunatic I've always been. That lil' piece of magnificent poetry was just something that came off the top of my leaking head for a few minutes. I wish I could say it was influenced by something green and smokable but it wasn't. It was just plain ol' insane Kelly, doing what I do best... Which is to say... Not making much sense.
So fear not, drink up, and Salut to you, as well. And don't forget to have yourself a rip-snort dandy of a weekend. Cheers!
LilPixi- I'm a firm believer that everyone should have the Safety Dance running in their heads 24/7. Wouldn't that be better than the bee's goddamn knees???
ReplyDeleteWell, you betcha it would. Yay hoo and pass the rum!
Kelly, you should send those lyrics to Elton John. I'm sure he could turn them into a great song. Might have to modify the last verse a bit though!
ReplyDeleteDance on Brother.
Hi Kelly, I'm joining the blogservation somewhat late, but after reading the comments, I went to check out the Safety Dance video. Then I noticed that the crippled character(ARTIE) from the American musical hit show, GLEE, did a video remake of the song. It's a smiley, upbeat piece of music that I will certainly add to my playlist! As for your foray into poetic verse...all I could imagine was you out there dancing with one foot on the ground while a nosey(not as in smellophone) neighbor scowled at you over the fence. I'm glad that you dance Kelly...no matter what anyone around may think, it certainly keeps me dancing on my toes peeking over the fence for more!
ReplyDeletebazza- I submitted my lyrics to Elton and he replied back that he was going to make it his next hit song- but only if I dance seductively in the video version. Well... I told him he was just gonna have to find some other fat ugly dude to do it. I have my high standards, you know. So now we've decided on either Michael Moore or Jack Black for the job.
ReplyDeleteTHE SNEE- Oh, SNEE, it was just awful, I tell you. Just plain awful. All the neighbors were peeking in my bedroom window, watching me dance, laughing, nodding and pleasuring themselves, simultaneously. I've never felt so humiliated! So I told them that if they wanted to continue watching, that they'd just have to pay the ticket price just like everyone else. Well... That showed them!
ReplyDeleteOn a side note: I've never watched the show, GLEE, before- but having a crippled character do a dance number sounds like it would be upbeat and fun. I'll try to check that out. Have a great day! :)
