lyrics

Exultant

Toss a coin. Let it land.
Hold it level on your hand.
The other side is where I'll be.
One day I hope you'll visit me.

We'll dance! We'll dance!
We'll let it all out!
We'll dance 'til we break on through.
Dance 'til we're shiny and new.

We'll shake.
We'll let it all out!
Leave all our woes behind.
Dance til we're out of our mind.

Like Mardi Gras that never stops
And no-one ever calls the cops.

We'll dance! We'll dance!
We'll let it all out!
We'll dance 'til we break on through.
Dance 'til we're shiny and new.

But all is never as it seems,
Sometimes I get crazy dreams...

Last night in my sleeping,
I had a dream that woke me weeping.
Everything was sick and dying,
Everyone was scared and crying.
Oh! My children that I never had,
You were all so broken, and so sad...


I cried "Woe!, Woe!,
Wake me up,
I don't want to dream no more!
Wake me up,
I don't want to sleep no more!”

I cried and wailed in sad lament,
I screamed and roared in rage potent
At how much time you had misspent,
And when you could have made a dent
In the God-fearing,
Nature-hating,
Shit-eating,
Greed-fellating,
War-mongering,
Truth-mutating,
Elitist male-dominating,
Tyrannical, twisted, narcissistic,
Military-industrial-complex DIPSTICKS
Who keep all of humanity down,
And are gonna do you all in!?

Then I woke up.

Funny things, those crazy dreams,
I wonder what on earth it means?
Maybe you know what it's about?
I'm hoping that you'll sort it out?

And then we'll go dancing!

We'll dance! We'll dance!
We'll let it all out!
We'll dance 'til we break on through.
Dance 'til we're shiny and new.

We'll shake.
We'll let it all out!
Leave all our woes behind.
Dance til we're out of our mind.

Like Mardi Gras that never stops
And no-one ever calls the cops.

We'll dance! We'll dance!
We'll let it all out!
We'll dance 'til we break on through.
Dance 'til we're shiny and new.
