The trou ble with schools is they al ways try to teach the wrong les son.
Be lieve me, I’ve been kicked out of e nough of them to know.
They want you to be come less cal low,
less shal low, but I say, “Why in vite stress in?
Stop stud y ing strife
and learn to live ‘the un ex am ined
life’”…
Danc ing through life,
skim ming the sur face, glid ing where turf is smooth.
Life’s more pain less for the brain less.
Why think too hard
when it’s so sooth ing.
Danc ing through life?
No need to tough it when you can slough it off as I do.
Noth ing mat ters, but know ing noth ing mat ters.
It’s just life
so keep danc ing through…
Danc ing through life,
sway ing and sweep ing, and al ways keep ing cool.
Life is fraught less when you’re thought less.
Those who don’t try
nev er look fool ish.
Danc ing through life,
mind less and care less, make sure you’re where less trou ble is rife…
Woes are fleet ing, but blows are noth glanc mat ing… It’s just life
so keep danc ing through…
It’s just life
so keep danc ing through.
