Dance the Footloose

Let's dance the Footloose,
save the town, bring back the dance,
reject the ban, bring back the fun,
Elmore needs our help,
life has been restricted,
joy lost to the masses,
so let's dance Footloose
to bring back the jubilee.

Dance the Footloose,
slant the angles as we spin around.
Dance the Footloose,
DJ cry as you spin the song.

DJ let's dance the Footloose,
the song you play every week,
the one that dancers love,
the yoke around your neck.
There could be other songs,
other ways to dance the night,
but they call out for the one,
so let's dance the Footloose,
once again, 999th week in a row.

Dance the Footloose,
slant the angles as we spin around.
Dance the Footloose,
DJ cry as you spin the song.

Let's dance the Footloose,
save the town, DJ be damned,
we'll throw in with the spirits,
wanting to live fleet of feet,
wanting to see the girl,
wanting to sing and dance,
DJ play that song again,
we'll do our part for revelry
while you slowly loose your sanity.

Dance the Footloose,
slant the angles as we spin around.
Dance the Footloose,
DJ cry as you spin the song.
DJ cry as you spin the song.

A DJ's life is tough. There are those songs, one specifically, that will bring the music mixer to say “I'm so over the Footloose Line Dance". True, but the song must play. Elmore must be freed again.
