Lyrics
0:00Someone is waiting
0:07Over by the window
0:09Just beyond the stairwell
0:11Someone's crying
0:15Drowning in the words
0:17Of the prophets
0:18That are written
0:19For the dead and the dying
0:22Someone's lying
0:27No one's buying
0:33Someone is dying
0:41Panic in the streets
0:43Can't get no release
0:44Someone escaping
0:49Waiting on a line
0:51For the holy revolution
0:53Parading illusion
0:56Someone's using
1:01Most amusing
1:05Will you dance
1:06Will you dance
1:08Smell of caviar and roses
1:13Teach your children all the poses
1:16How familliar are we all
1:22Will you dance
1:23Will you dance
1:25Light fantastic in the morning
1:29How romantic to be whoring
1:33Boring though it may be
1:35Who'll survive
1:39If you and I should fall
2:03Someone is bleeding
2:10Crimson in the night
2:12Strangers in the light
2:14A sudden meeting
2:19Greeting one by one
2:20Every life rund flashing
2:23Before those dashing eyes
2:27Will you dance
2:28Will you dance
2:29Take a chance on romance
2:31And a big surprise
2:35Will you dance
2:36Will you dance
2:37Take a chance on romance
2:39And a big surprise
Someone is waiting Over by the window Just beyond the stairwell Someone's crying Drowning in the words Of the prophets That are written For the dead and the dying Someone's lying No one's buying Someone is dying Panic in the streets Can't get no release Someone escaping Waiting on a line For the holy revolution Parading illusion Someone's using Most amusing Will you dance Will you dance Smell of caviar and roses Teach your children all the poses How familliar are we all Will you dance Will you dance Light fantastic in the morning How romantic to be whoring Boring though it may be Who'll survive If you and I should fall Someone is bleeding Crimson in the night Strangers in the light A sudden meeting Greeting one by one Every life rund flashing Before those dashing eyes Will you dance Will you dance Take a chance on romance And a big surprise Will you dance Will you dance Take a chance on romance And a big surprise
