But no one will dance
With us
In this zany town.

Chim-chim-chim sings some praise
For your elders
They're in the bag.

Pick out some brazilian nuts
For your engagement.
Check that expiration date man,
It's later than you think.

You can't enjoy yourself, I can't enjoy myself.
You can't enjoy yourself, I can't enjoy myself.
Move that swing,
And watch it break straight like an ox.

But I won't be there
To live you,
Ah ah ah.
 
| Em7 A | G | D |
 
Cause I don't have a clue,
Any more.

Maybe we could dance,
Maybe we could dance,
Maybe we could dance,
Together,

Together,
Together,
Together.
 
| D Dmaj7 | D6 A6sus4 | G Dmaj7/F# | Em7 A |
 
First time we'll see,
and then we'll be,
Five times forever,
And we'll never be lost.
