Baby, grab your things 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 make the world stop dancin'

The kids will just dance until they're dead
It never really matters what we said
We gotta just shut the fuck up and let the kids keep dancing

Step back Everything's alright
We all know the facts, but we're drunk tonight
Oooh! It 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 and say, shut up, shut up and say
It's not that bad
I mean it's obvious that something isn't right
But if ignorance is bliss would you rather smile or fight?
Well, I'll take fight

The kids just dance until they're dead
It never really matters what we said
So we gotta just move on out and let the kids keep dancin'
