The politics are dancing
And they're playing cute
The warning lights are flashing,
Does not compute
We've got to raise the roof,
Before we climb the walls,
They're killing sacred cows,
In hallowed halls
The powers that be,
Say there's nothing to be done,
But we can dance and sing,
We can still bang the drum
Chorus
Lights Out (lights out)
Let's Shout (let's shout)
Let Loose (let loose)
Jam out (jam out)
Let's Live (let's live)
Tonight (tonight)
Forgive (forgive),
Take Flight (take flight)
The panic's setting in,
to this apocalyptic disco,
You have to ask yourself,
Just how far can this go?
If you feel burnt out,
Just can't find the spark,
What you dream by day,
is better in the dark
(Chorus)
Dance to the end of the world,
Dance with a boy or a girl,
Dance just to know you're alive,
Gonna party like it's 1985
It's our last sunset,
As the empire fades,
It's much too late
For passing grades
As the curtain falls,
Put your hand in mine,
Here come the fighter planes,
Party over oops out of time…
