Life is like a dance Life is like a dance Life is like a dance Life is like a dance You got to take a chance Life is like a dance One step at a time Life is like a dance I got a brand new dance called to each his own You can do it with a partner or do it alone There's no special way that it has to be done Some do it two on two, some do it one on one Let's go step for step and then breath for breath See my life is like a dance and my dance is def My dance is def, so def that it's beyond compare You see my life is like a dance and I'm willing to share See my life is like a dance called the merry-go-round It goes up and down and round and round Sometimes I get dizzy but I also get dizzy All I'm asking you for is to dance with me All you got to do is take one step at a time See my life is like a dance and the dance is mine This dance is hot, that's right, and there'll be no cutting in And we won't stop rocking 'til the music ends Now the dance you do, it says a lot about you I can tell your life story from the dance you do I bet you bump into people every day of the week I bet every now and then you feel like a freak Like Diana Ross said, you need some muscles Life kind of reminds me of the dance the hustle People stepping on your toes when you're trying to rock I know that you agree 'cause you're doing the wop Now even my romances remind me of dances The first chance I got to dance and romance was with Frances She waltzed through my life like it was no thing But she had another partner, she liked to shing-a-ling Silly rabbit had a habit of hop-hopping around Caught her wiggling and giggling with some hip-hop downtown See that was her way, now this way is mine And I'm bound to get another dance down the hip-hop line That's why, the reason I say that life is like dancing 'Cause you got to learn the new steps, you got to take chances You got to be able to rock to the groove While everybody in the party's in a different mood Some like to dance slow, some like to dance fast I can tell the way you're living by the way that you dance But you live your life and I'll live mine And we'll all dance along to the same bassline Now music is music by any name Call a rose what you want and it smells the same You may like funk and you may like punk You may like opera which I think is junk You may like reggae and you may like pop But no matter what you like, you like to be rocked So you do your dance and I'll do mine And we'll all dance along to the same bassline
