about

from the album Beach Street

lyrics

The power of land in the land of power
The cost of grain against the price of flour
When a dollar isn’t worth a dime
Money starts growing like a snake on a vine

But we keep on dancing until we all fall down

Freedom is found in obedience
No matter what side you are on you are right
While a scurrilous mob outside the law
Refuses to be deputized
The innocent man on the hanging tree
Cannot prove what can never be
If there is found in judgment a flaw
People might refuse to be ruled by the law

And we keep on dancing until we all fall down

So put a cop on every corner
Shine a light into every room
Teach your children to shout for the toreador
And they will grow into good soldiers soon
Aint no need to believe in nothing
When you’re holding all the bombs
No hellion or saint can protect you
As well as the threat of extinction does

We keep on dancing until we all fall down

We can’t stay in and we can’t get out
So let’s raise the dead, make 'em twist and shout
Let’s follow them until we all fall down

Twist and shout spin around
Carousing at the speed of sound
Its silent night in tinsel town
When we all fall down

So keep on dancing until we all fall down
