Dance like the man (Americana) Lyrics

Oh, we follow with a grin now

Smiling wide to let him in now

Acting like we never sinned now

While we're hiding from the truth

We shuffle to his orders

Crossing all our borders

Till we're tangled up like spiders

In a web of empty youth

Dance, dance; keep on marching on

Swing your hands and follow the plan

Sell your soul and dance while you can

Dance, dance like the man

Telling lies to hide the blame now

Pointing fingers, playing games now

Keep the stories all the same now

To protect what we've become

We wince at the reflection

Of our own misdirection

Yet we paint a pretty fiction

In the colors of the sun

Dance, dance; keep on marching on

Swing your hands and follow the plan

Sell your soul and dance while you can

Dance, dance like the man

Keep your eyes straight ahead

Dare not speak of what's unsaid

Pretend we're not misled

Just keep dancing, hold your thread

Dance, dance; keep on marching on

Swing your hands and follow the plan

Sell your soul and dance while you can

Dance, dance like the man
