"Dancing Through Life" lyrics
Jonathan Young, Brandon McInnis & Caleb Hyles Lyrics
(originally from "Wicked" musical)
Dancing through life, skimming the surface
Gliding where turf is smooth
Life's more painless for the brainless
Why think too hard when it's so soothing?
Dancing through life, no need to tough it
When you can slough it off as I do
Nothing matters, but knowing nothing matters
It's just life, so keep dancing through
Dancing through life, swaying and sweeping
And always keeping cool
Life is fraughtless when you're thoughtless
Those who don't try never look foolish
Dancing through life, mindless and careless
Make sure you're where less trouble is rife
Woes are fleeting, blows are glancing
When you're dancing through life
Let's go down to the Ozdust Ballroom
We'll meet there later tonight
We can dance till it's light
Find the prettiest girl, give her a whirl
Right on down to the Ozdust Ballroom
Come on, follow me
You'll be happy to be there
Dancing through life down at the Ozdust
If only because dust is what we come to
Nothing matters, but knowing nothing matters
It's just life
It's just life
So keep dancing through
Gliding where turf is smooth
Life's more painless for the brainless
Why think too hard when it's so soothing?
Dancing through life, no need to tough it
When you can slough it off as I do
Nothing matters, but knowing nothing matters
It's just life, so keep dancing through
Dancing through life, swaying and sweeping
And always keeping cool
Life is fraughtless when you're thoughtless
Those who don't try never look foolish
Dancing through life, mindless and careless
Make sure you're where less trouble is rife
Woes are fleeting, blows are glancing
When you're dancing through life
Let's go down to the Ozdust Ballroom
We'll meet there later tonight
We can dance till it's light
Find the prettiest girl, give her a whirl
Right on down to the Ozdust Ballroom
Come on, follow me
You'll be happy to be there
Dancing through life down at the Ozdust
If only because dust is what we come to
Nothing matters, but knowing nothing matters
It's just life
It's just life
So keep dancing through
