Fallen off the ledge you're on your feet again
That's how the people dance
That's how the people dance
You take a chance 'cause you're on the
wrong side of the street again
You had to roll the dice
So, Baby, don't think twice
You don't want to open up your eyes
Realize you've never been in command
You don't dare to open up your eyes
You're afraid of where you might land
Crooked politics and empty promises
That's how the people dance
That's how the people dance
In a world of hypocrisy and Nostradamuses
You've got to live in fear
the end is drawing near
You don't want to open up your eyes
Realize you've never been in command
You don't dare to open up your eyes
You're afraid of where you might land
