The Part-Time Poets - Dance for Your Life (feat. Matt Hall)

Let me let you in on a secret that you really ought to know
How puny human lives are worth less than a single ounce of blow
Now, don't be scared, don't be alarmed, you know it's always been this way
As long as the hands of time have turned, they've pointed to Judgement Day
There'll be no beams of golden light. No, no one's coming to save the day
Humanity's too blind to see the end come anyway

Just enjoy the bumpy ride, the turbulence is all we need
To get this party jumping 'til we hit the ground full speed

Well, this is prime time entertainment, don't get twisted up in facts
'Cause the real world is shit, don't bother getting off your ass
And if the apocalypse is just a pulse of sound and light
Well, we might as well be dancing, so, dance for your life
Dance for your life
Dance for your life
Dance for your life

Been a long time coming, in retrospect it's plain to see
That we were all dead wrong about reality TV
Turns out the television's just as real as you and I
And anything they try to tell you otherwise is just a lie
Now we can only trust the ones among us who believe the things we do
The ones who think and dress and act and buy and talk like me and you
Don't forget to catch our program, learn every line, every cue
So when those bastards try to spoil your mind, you'll know exactly what to do

Well, this is prime time entertainment, don't get twisted up in facts
'Cause the real world is shit, don't bother getting off your ass
And if the apocalypse is just a pulse of sound and light
Well, we might as well be dancing, so, dance for your life
Dance for your life
Dance for your life
Dance for your life

Oh, sweet mercy
'You see what's coming? (I see what's coming)
'You see what's coming? (I see what's coming)
Run for your life (¡Adios muchachos!)
Run for your life
Run for your life
Run for your life
Run for your life
Run for your life
Run for your life

Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, we should not be running
What's this whole song been about anyway?
When that giant missile comes shooting down from the sky, what are we gonna do?
I'll tell ya

Dance for your life
Dance for your life
Dance for your life
Dance for your life
Dance for your life
Dance for your life
Dance for your life
