Jonathan Coulton - Dance, Soterios Johnson, Dance Lyrics
A voice like honey, no one else could fill his shoesThe time and the weather, the headlines and the local newsHe lays down with perfection and graceDone by noon, he goes home to his placeWhere he sleeps and he waits for the nightJust before midnight he gets up, gets out of bedA can of Red Bull, a tab of Ex to clear his headHe shoots his cuffs, now he's headed downtownPicks up one life, puts another one downAnd his body hums and the music's playingDance, Soterios Johnson, danceIt's a cold world, nobody understandsThe feeling you can't keep insideGo, Soterios Johnson, goAll the club kids are watching your glowstick glowWith the light of a truth you can't hideThat the news is the news, but the dance goes on foreverHe shimmies his shoulders, undulates his slender hipsArms akimbo, Jaggeresque, he pouts his lipsA circle forms, everybody comes 'roundJust to hear the incredible soundOf a genius smashing expectationsDance, Soterios Johnson, danceIt's a cold world, nobody understandsThe feeling you can't keep insideGo, Soterios Johnson, goAll the club kids are watching your glowstick glowWith the light of a truth you can't hideThat the news is the news, but the dance goes on foreverHe's dancing, he's a machineLike no one, that they've ever seenHe's flying, he's living a dreamThe magic fades as the sun comes up, it's time he goesA hand on his shoulder, he turns around: it's Teri GrossHe takes her hand, spins her body just soHe holds her close, they will never let goAs the room explodes, they dance like angelsDance, Soterios Johnson, danceIt's a cold world, nobody understandsThe feeling you can't keep insideGo, Soterios Johnson, goAll the club kids are watching your glowstick glowWith the light of a truth you can't hideThat the news is the news, but the dance goes on forever
