(E)I don’t want to take it an y more.

’cause a I’ll just stay here locked be hind the door.

Just no time to stop and Chev ro let,

’cause I work so hard to make it ev ’ry day.

Whoo oooh,

whoo oooh.

(E)There’s no mon ey fall ing from the sky

All the man mon took my heart and robbed me blind.

Some one stole my brand new sim ple dreams,

and the rent is due, I got no place to stay.

Whoo oooh,

whoo oooh.

And it’s (A7)hard to say just how some things nev er change.

And it’s hard to find an y strength to draw the line.

Oh, (E)I’m just burn ing do in’ the Neu tron Dance.

I’m just burn ing do in’ the Neu tron Dance.

I know there’s a pot of gold for me.

All I got to do is just be lieve.

I’m so (E)hap py do in’ the Neu tron Dance.

I’m just burn in’ do in’ the Neu tron Dance.

I’m so (E)hap py do in’ the Neu tron Dance.

I’m just burn in’ do in’ the Neu tron Dance.

I’m so

Whoo oooh,

whoo oooh.

I’m so hap py do in’ the Neu tron Dance.

I’m just burn in’ do in’ the Neu tron Dance.

Whoo oooh,

I’m so hap py,

I’m just burn in’.

I’m so hap py,

I’m just burn in’.

I’m so hap py,
