“I started composing this song by working on the two-beat ska section of the verse and then adding the lyrics.

[Intro]
Dance!
[Verse 1]
If you really want to know how to dance
Stop listening to shitty rock bands
When you go on a trip to the city of romance
Practice taking off your pants as fast as you can
[Pre-Chorus]
You look like John Lennon taking a bite of lemon
I mean don't lean on me, oh
[Chorus]
Dance like the monks (Monks), dance like the punks (Punks)
Dance like the shameless holy priest
Dance like a dog (Dog), dance like a frog (Frog)
Dance like the beauty and the beast
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
We all die in the end, yeah
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
Just bе yourself once again, yeah, yеah
[Post-Chorus]
Dance like the monks!
[Verse 2]
If you really want to know how to have fun
First of all, take your hand off the gun
You don't have to go 1-on-1 against Michael Jordan
Don't be ashamed to turn around and run
[Pre-Chorus]
You look like John Lennon taking a bite of lemon
I mean don't lean on me, oh
[Chorus]
Dance like the monks (Monks), dance like the punks (Punks)
Dance like the shameless holy priest
Dance like a dog (Dog), dance like a frog (Frog)
Dance like the beauty and the beast
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
We all die in the end, yeah
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
Just be yourself once again
Let's dance!
[Bridge]
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, go!
Dance as you please
You are free
[Chorus]
Dance like the monks (Monks), dance like the punks (Punks)
Dance like the shameless holy priest
Dance like a dog (Dog), dance like a frog (Frog)
Dance like the beauty and the beast
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
We all die in the end, yeah
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
Just be yourself once again, yeah, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
Dance like the monks!
