We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance
And if they don't dance
Well, they're no friends of mine

We can go where we want to
A place that they will never find
And we can act like we come
From out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
Leave the real one far behind

We can go when we want to
Night is young and so am I
And we can dress real neat
From our hats to our feet
And surprise 'em with the victory cry

We can act if we want to
If we don't, nobody will
And you can act real rude and totally removed
And I can act like an imbecile
I can act like an imbecile

And we can dance (we can dance)
Everything is out of control (we can dance)
We can dance (we can dance)
They're doing it from pole to pole (we can dance)

We can dance (we can dance)
Everybody look at your hands (we can dance)
We can dance (we can dance)
Everybody's taking the chance (we can dance)
It's safe to dance
It's safe to dance

We can dance if we want to
We've got all your life and mine
As long as we abuse it, never gonna lose it
Everything'll work out right

We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance
And if they don't dance
Well, they're no friends of mine
No friends of mine

And we can dance (we can dance)
Everything's out of control (we can dance)
We can dance (we can dance)
They're doing it from pole to pole (we can dance)
We can dance (we can dance)

Everybody look at your hands (we can dance)
We can dance (we can dance)
Everybody's taking the chance (we can dance)
It's safe to dance
It's safety dance

We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance
And if they don't dance
Well, they're no friends of mine
No friends of mine
