Well it was about five 'til five on Friday
We were all getting ready to go
The boss man started screamin'
His veins began to show
He said, "Now you and you come with me
'Cause you're gonna have to stay"
My heart was thumping, I was jumping
I had to get away
Some days you gotta dance
Live it up when you get the chance
'Cause when the world doesn't make no sense
And you're feeling just a little too tense
You got to loosen up those chains and dance
Well I was talking to my baby
Over a small glass of tea
She asked the loaded question
"How do you feel about me?"
My mind was racin', I was pacin'
But the words, they never would come
There was only one thing left to do
I feel it comin' on
Baby, some days you gotta dance
Live it up when you get the chance
'Cause when the world doesn't make no sense
And you're feeling just a little too tense
You gotta loosen up those chains and dance
(Come on)
Some days you gotta dance
Live it up when you get the chance
'Cause when the world doesn't make no sense
And you're feeling just a little too tense
You got to loosen up those chains and dance
Want you to loosen up those chains and dance, dance
Want you to loosen up those chains
And dance with me
