Everybody will dance
I’m ready for my close-up
’cause I’m such a star tonight
Been into hair and make-up
Got a sharp suit to excite
The beauty aristocracy
are flooding through the door
Gonna feed them all with Champagne
then I’ll lead them to the floor
And everybody will dance
And everybody will dance
And everybody will dance
And everybody will dance
There’s always somewhere in the city
just below the skin
where they’re beating out a rhythm
to get the faithful in
There’s a new dimension
everyone’s your friend
They say that money has no meaning
but time’s not all you spend
And everybody will dance
And everybody will dance
And everybody will dance
And everybody will dance
Somewhere in the city
You’ll find something going on
High life for the dead beats
and the royalty gone wrong
Tonight I need another
secret to discover
A temporary pleasure
always and forever
But too much of a good thing
always seems to work for me
I thought I saw an angel
lost in the debris
Calling through the chaos
Flying past the bar
And when I found that angel
I said “Tell me who you are!”
“I’m just a figment of my own
imagination every night
But if someone gives me adoration
I won’t put up a fight
You may have guessed
I’m not repressed
I’m different from the rest
Get on up now, join the party
and I’ll put you to the test”
And everybody will dance
And everybody will dance
And everybody will dance
And everybody will dance
