Dance Blues

You keep sayin' you wanna die You hang your head and you wonder why You keep choosin' the safe road Why you keep choosin' the safe road There ain't no way to make it through You hide beneath the cupboard on a full moon Scared of your own shadow, man When you gonna quit this pretend?

Dance Dance your blues away Dance Dance your blues away

Peering through the broken glass of your own mirror You don't recognize yourself Woke up this morning in a bed Next to a woman who loves you But that's not good enough for you For you So you just dance

Dance Dance your blues away Dance Dance your blues away

I ain't saying it's easier said than done Been trying thirty-odd years It ain't helped me none It was a lot easier than taking drugs Or fighting thugs or rejecting hugs So I'll just dance Dance your blues away Dance Dance your blues away

Dance Dance your blues away Dance Dance your blues away

You know sometimes you wake up and you feel so sad But don't you know, baby, you ain't gotta feel so bad Pretty soon you're gonna find out the blues is only in your mind All you gotta do is dance, dance, dance, dance, dance Till they go away Till they go away Till they go away
