lyrics

GET UP AND DANCE - © Alexander Zarbo 1982

The pressure is on, the song is playing
And people are dancing, the party is bound to begin

You start with your motions, subconsciously unlock the door
And carry your fantasy, gradually bend more and more.

Get up and dance and get up, get up
Get up and dance and get up and dance
How does it feel, how does it feel
When you get up and dance
How does it feel, how does it feel
When so many people glance?

It's unusual excitement an emotional contrast
After day after day after working for nothing

But working for reason, pleasure is the outcome
For love is the prize and this is where is comes from now.

Get up and dance and get up, get up
Get up and dance and get up and dance
How does it feel, how does it feel
When you get up and dance
How does it feel, how does it feel
When so many people glance
How does it feel, how does it feel
When you get up and dance?

GUITAR SOLO

The pressure is off, the song is over
And people have gone home, the party has already stopped
You start with your cleanup, someone is knocking at the door
Oh what a surprise, everyone's come back for more!

Get up and dance and get up, get up
Get up and dance and get up and dance
How does it feel, how does it feel
When you get up and dance
How does it feel, how does it feel
When so many people glance
How does it feel, how does it feel
When you get up and dance?
