Under the neon we move every way
Dance until all of your dreams and hopes fade away
Oh trying to pursue your dreams
A foolish thought left best buried deep
And trying not to leave empty
You'll own nothing and you'll be happy!

They'll tell you to climb and kick out the ladder
So you are a unit, one that doesn't matter!
Clock in then, go clock out
Walk in, don't you even dare walk out!
Stay on track, don't talk back
Do you want to live or fall back flat?

Buried my desires deep inside
So dance until your legs can't hold you up right!

Don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing!
Don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing!

Did you just make that now?
Come on and pay up!
You are content with life, so
Cough up the funds

Hit the floor, move up and down
And don't think 'bout what you lost now
And then hit the floor, move left and right
Okay, let's get it right
Just one more time

Under the neon we move every way
Dance until all of your dreams and hopes fade away
Oh trying to pursue your dreams
A foolish thought left best buried deep
And trying not to leave empty
You'll own nothing and you'll be happy!

Don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing!
Don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing!
Don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing!
Don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing!
