Do the D.A.N.C.E.
One, two, three, four, five
Stick to the B.E.A.T.
Get ready to ignite
You were such a P.Y.T.
Catching all the lights
Just easy as A.B.C.
That's how you make it right

Do the D.A.N.C.E.
One, two, three, four, five
Stick to the B.E.A.T.
Get ready to ignite
You were such a P.Y.T.
Catching all the lights
Just easy as A.B.C.
That's how you make it right

Do the D.A.N.C.E.
Stick to the B.E.A.T.
Just easy as A.B.C.
Do the dance

Do the dance
The way you move is a mystery
Do the dance
You're always there for music and me
Do the dance
The way you move is a mystery
Do the dance
You're always there for music and me

Do the D.A.N.C.E.
One, two, three, four, five
Stick to the B.E.A.T.
Get ready to ignite
You were such a P.Y.T.
Catching all the lights
Just easy as A.B.C.
That's how you make it right

Do the dance (do the dance)
The way you move is a mystery
Do the dance (do the dance)
You're always there for music and me
Do the dance (do the dance)
The way you move is a mystery
Do the dance (do the dance)
You're always there for music and me

Under the spotlights
Neither black nor white
It doesn't matter
Do the dance (do the dance)
As strong as you might
Working day and night
Whatever happens
Do the dance (do the dance)

Under the spotlights
Neither black nor white
It doesn't matter
Do the dance (do the dance)
As strong as you might
Working day and night
Whatever happens
Do the dance (do the dance)
The way you move is a mystery
Do, do the dance (do the dance)
You're always there for music and me

The way you move is a mystery

    Song Meaning:voice of children reflects michael jackson's character
    do the d.a.n.c.e - when michael jackson sets the trend
    1,2,3,4,fight - reflects a little childish way of thinking...do not know how to say 5?
    pyt....mj's song
    a.b.c ...mj's song..
    both gives a clue that it's about mj
    n also working day and night
    the way you move is mystery - is how mihael jackson was gifted to set his dancing trend, amazing and unique(mysterious)
    *that's what i think:)*

    Song Meaning:i think it reflects michael jackson.
    the song was clearly sung by children n etc. which reflects michael jackson's attitude...
    working day and night(song from mj) , PYT, n his 'dance' is a mystery which iss like
    the most impressive and odd dance ever and set a trend...
    1 2 3 4 right or fight juz little bit connotation of child thinking..5 by mistake..
    (soz for my bad english, but this is what i think about this song)

    General Comment:Um... I love this song (for about 3 or 4 years now)... When I first heard it, I absolutely did not put two and two together and see that is was about Michael Jackson (one of my most favorite artist) I fell in love with this song and decided to do move and more research, and found out it was about Michael Jackson, and then all of the coincidences hit me. And I fell in love with the song even more. Now that MJ has died, I just don't know what to do except for listen to his songs, and make several playlists. This is the only non-MJ song I listen too. I never thought he molested those boys, I just think he was in a state of mind that just permitted him to be a kid and have sleepovers and just have the childhood his father never permitted him to have. By the way, I have some lyric edits. lol... (wow I wrote a novel but I love this song and MJ so damn much lol...)

    "Streaming through the radio (what they did to his music when first was big ((jackson 5))
    Dancing on the round (billie jean reference)
    Spread the word in stereo (concerts, VH1, radio, ECT.)
    At the speed of sound (how quickly he became famous, he was rapidly being heard/downloaded/ECT)"
