Lyrics

It's the thought of being young

When your heart's just like a drum

Beating louder with no way to guard it

When it all seems like it's wrong

Just sing along to Elton John

And to that feeling, we're just getting started

When the nights get colder

And the rhythms got you falling behind

Just dream about that moment

When you look yourself right in the eye, eye, eye

Then you say

I wanna dance, the music's got me going

Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah

Let's break our plans and live just like we're golden

And roll in like we're dancing fools

We don't need to worry

'Cause when we fall, we know how to land

Don't need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight

'Cause we don't need permission to dance

There's always something that's standing in the way

But if you don't let it faze ya, you'll know just how to break

Just keep the right vibe, yeah, 'cause there's no looking back

There ain't no one to prove, we don't got this on lock, yeah

The wait is over

The time is now, so let's do it right

Yeah, we'll keep going

And stay up until we see the sunrise

And we'll say

I wanna dance, the music's got me going

Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah

Let's break our plans and live just like we're golden

And roll in like we're dancing fools

We don't need to worry

'Cause when we fall, we know how to land

Don't need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight

'Cause we don't need permission to dance

Da-na-na-na-na-na-na, da-na-na-na-na-na-na

Da-na-na-na-na-na-na

No, we don't need permission to dance

Da-na-na-na-na-na-na, da-na-na-na-na-na-na

Da-na-na-na-na-na-na

Well, let me show ya

That we can keep the fire alive, mmm

'Cause it's not over

Till it's over, say it one more time, say

I wanna dance, the music's got me going (the music's got me going)

Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah (hey)

Let's break our plans and live just like we're golden

And roll in like we're dancing fools (like we're dancing fools)

We don't need to worry

'Cause when we fall, we know how to land (we know how to land)

Don't need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight

'Cause we don't need permission to dance

Lyrics

Oh

La-la-la-la

Oh

Yeah

I know it might be crazy

But did you hear the story?

I think I heard it vaguely

A girl and a zombie

Oh, tell me more, boy

Sounds like a fantasy

Oh, what could go so wrong

With a girl and a zombie

You're from the perfect paradise

And I'm living on the darker side

Ooh, I've got a feeling

If you get to know me

Right from the start you caught my eye

And something inside me came to life

Ooh, I've got a feeling

If you get to know me

Someday

This could be, this could be ordinary

Someday

Could we be something extraordinary?

You and me side by side (yeah, yeah)

Out in the broad daylight

If they laugh, we'll say

We're gonna be someday

We're gonna be someday (Someday, someday)

We're gonna be someday

We're gonna be someday

Girl, you look delicious

Oh, I mean gorgeous

Well, now you're getting fearless

No, I'm just rooting for us

If different was a super power

We'd be so flawless

Yeah, we could make these two worlds ours

I'm rooting for us

Two lonely hearts meet in the dark

Imagine it now they start a spark

You got my attention

What happens next, then?

Movies and long walks in the park

Hanging out anywhere we want

I like the way you're thinking

I can almost see it

Someday

This could be, this could be ordinary

Someday

Could we be something extraordinary?

You and me side by side (Yeah, yeah)

Out in the broad daylight

If they laugh, we'll say

We're gonna be someday

Someday, someday

So let them talk if they wanna (If they wanna, if they wanna)

Let them talk if they're gonna

We're gonna do what we wanna

Let them talk, let them talk

If they wanna, they wanna

Someday (Someday)

This could be, this could be ordinary

Someday (Someday)

Could we be something extraordinary?

You and me side by side

Out in the broad daylight

If they laugh, we'll say

We're gonna be someday

Someday, someday

We're gonna be someday

Someday, someday

We're gonna be someday

Someday, someday

We're gonna be someday

Someday, someday

We're gonna be someday

I can see the clouds are thinning now, like a fading foggy morning on a cruise ship bow

Like a hoard of starving natives as they die of wanting something for to eat somehow

Like the softest cotton shirt fresh from the dryer on a February afternoon

Becoming ever more transparent as you wash it and you wear it, then it's gone too soon

Either I am getting taller or the ground is growing smaller, or I'm much too high

Blue skies overhead, have me convinced that total ecstasy is found right here in the sky

The universe is out there with its leases and its timeshares in the void of space

The earthly crust below has lost its texture and its flow as has this human race

Either I am getting taller or the ground is growing smaller, or I'm much too high

Blue skies overhead, have me convinced that total ecstasy is found right here in the sky

The universe is out there with its leases and its timeshares in the void of space

The earthly crust below has lost its texture and its flow as has this human race

Biding time till clouds are gone and I can write another song that steals a lover's heart

My head is ten times clearer than it was when all that beer just blew my thoughts apart

A dollar or a dime, an ode a nursery rhyme, somehow, I can't be sure

Whether all this introspection is a vaccine or an injection, or a magic cure

Either I am getting taller or the ground is growing smaller, or I'm much too high

Blue skies overhead, have me convinced that total ecstasy is found right here in the sky

The universe is out there with its leases and its timeshares in the void of space

The earthly crust below has lost its texture and its flow as has this human race

I can finally see for miles, down subway tunnels, grocery aisles; across the barren plain

But no matter where I'm gazing, all these human cattle grazing seem to look the same

Fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters

They're all headed for the slaughter, yet they have no clue

They assemble, congregate, put on airs and put on weight until their lives are through

Either I am getting taller or the ground is growing smaller, or I'm much too high

Blue skies overhead, have me convinced that total ecstasy is found right here in the sky

The universe is out there with its leases and its timeshares in the void of space

The earthly crust below has lost its texture and its flow as has this human race

I keep trying to look past it, but it's like an Easter basket full of chocolate fruit

Distracting like a sunny, sultry, scented playboy bunny in a birthday suit

I dare not chance a nibble; troubles multiply like tribbles if you let one in

So, I leap that tasty treat in my reclining ejector seat unscathed, unmarked by sin

Either I am getting taller or the ground is growing smaller, or I'm much too high

Blue skies overhead, have me convinced that total ecstasy is found right here in the sky

The universe is out there with its leases and its timeshares in the void of space

The earthly crust below has lost its texture and its flow as has this human race

This tale is nearly through; my mind goes blank; no more to stew in existential fear

The enemy is hate; I can't stumble, stray or wait; I must be straight and clear

I can still see the horizon and the beauty of your eyes in every newborn day

So, I press on in my journey like someone who had to learn he's simply wired this way

Either I am getting taller or the ground is growing smaller, or I'm much too high

Blue skies overhead, have me convinced that total ecstasy is found right here in the sky

The universe is out there with its leases and its timeshares in the void of space

The earthly crust below has lost its texture and its flow as has this human race

Soft green carpet spreads below me, although no one really knows me

I feel soft and sure

Unadulterated pondering, trite poetic wandering, despised and pure

As euphoria descends, the earth gets closer and it sends me down from high above

There is so much more to know; feet on the ground

It's time to grow an even deeper love

Either I am getting taller or the ground is growing smaller, or I'm much too high

Blue skies overhead, have me convinced that total ecstasy is found right here in the sky

The universe is out there with its leases and its timeshares in the void of space

The earthly crust below has lost its texture and its flow as has this human race

So, kiss goodbye the present tenses

Sunburned black wrought iron fences that keep out the good

Yes, the aftermath is scary but still plausible; less hairy if you'll lose the hood

Live life well and while you live it, somehow still forgive it as you drown in strife

You can bang the funeral gong, but the world's longest song plays on long past your life
