Lyrics

Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association
But no one may be compelled to belong to an association
I will admit
The ballroom is impressive
The vaulted ceiling chandeliers
The polished hardwood floor
Is it deco?
Let's say it is
In my estimation
The best things usually are
But it's the feet
That really make it
They find the rhythms
Make them speak
They trample on each other
Can't take my eyes
Off all those feet
In the thicket by the DJ booth
They spiral, spin and stomp
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
I will admit
It has allure
The dry ice and the light show
And the tang of human sweat
But you can all
Be all you like
Petition from the left
Petition from the right
I won't submit
Upon your beats
I'll stay up here
This cola growing tepid in my grip
Because this card
Is mine to mark
You can't have everyone
No, you can't have everyone
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association
But no one may be compelled to belong to an association
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
I reserve the right
I reserve the right
I reserve the right to keep my dance card blank
