Dance for life, lay way later on death

Ten little couples, dancing on the floor

One had a drink and then their was four

Four little couples dancing on the floor

Two stepped off, stung with the clash n a cough

Three little couples dancing on the floor

Choked on their chew and then their were two

Two little couples dancing on the floor

Two little people, had to much fun, they went off and left it to one

One little couple happy as can be, they walked off, ever so happily

If you do ponder and wonder what happened to these people, they went up the stairs, it's all fare

This is the dance of death and of life they all die in age they were never high

If you don't believe then you may see, that last couple, one in the two was me

We all went off safely as you can tell, all under the dance floor, strobe lights and a spell

Love never lasts, so grab it while you can, all the memories are worth, all in the end, take it while you can give life the bend

The blind man watched all in his hear, in his mind, he saw art

Mute whispers to his deft friend, the young are the future, as old people we end

Dance on life, and lay on death, let us live while we have our breath

Happily as you can see, I do believe they all walked off in glee

Walked her home,  cold to the bone so I gave her my coat as I breathed in the cold

Falls night air, love in the air, take every breath, as if it's the best
