When I Dance

V6

[Intro] [Spoken, very low voice, alone] When I dance. [Verse 1] When I dance, when I dance, I get that feeling in my feet, When I dance with my friends, We turn the sidewalk to a beat. We walk the walk, we dance the dance, Got no plan, but we got a chance, You catch my rhythm, I catch your glance, Come on over — get in the dance! [Pre-Chorus] One in the front, two in the back, Somebody clap when you hear that track! A little bit left, a little bit right, We’re picking up people all through the night. [Chorus] When I dance! (When I dance!) When I dance with my friends! (With my friends!) We walk the walk, we dance the dance, Everybody jump in — here’s your chance! When I dance! (Feel that beat!) When I dance with my friends! (Move your feet!) One more person, bring one more friend, The party gets bigger around every bend! [Post-Chorus] Dance-dance-dance with my friends! (With my friends, friends, friends!) Walk-walk-walk, here we go! (Here we go, go, go!) Left-right, left-right, bring it around, Pick up the beat, let it shake the ground! [Verse 2] There’s a guy on the corner doing one-two-three, A girl comes spinning like she’s dancing on TV, A couple walking dogs start tapping their toes, Now the whole block’s moving wherever the groove goes! A wave from the window, a clap from the car, Somebody shouts, “Hey, you know who we are?” We’re the feet on the street with the feel-good plan, You don’t need a ticket — just join the band! [Call and Response] Who’s got the rhythm? (WE GOT THE RHYTHM!) Who’s got the feet? (WE GOT THE FEET!) Who’s bringing somebody new to the street? (YOU! YOU! YOU!) Can you walk it? (WALK IT!) Can you rock it? (ROCK IT!) Can you stop it? (NO WAY!) Then don’t you dare stop it! [Chorus] When I dance! (When I dance!) When I dance with my friends! (With my friends!) We walk the walk, we dance the dance, Everybody jump in — here’s your chance! When I dance! (Feel that beat!) When I dance with my friends! (Move your feet!) One more person, bring one more friend, The party gets bigger around every bend! [Breakdown] You… me… Them… everybody… One step starts it. Two steps spread it. Hear that rhythm? Go ahead — get it! Did you think we were done? [Final Drop] WHEN I— WHEN I— WHEN I DANCE! (Hey! Hey!) WITH MY— WITH MY— WITH MY FRIENDS! (Hey! Hey!) We walk the walk! We dance the dance! Grab your neighbor — everybody’s got a chance! From one to ten, from ten to a hundred, Feel that bass and the whole street’s jumping! Dance-dance-dance with my friends! (With my friends, friends, friends!) Walk-walk-walk, here we go! (Here we go, go, go!) [Outro] When I dance… When I dance with my friends…
