"Dancing's Not A Crime" lyrics

"Dancing's Not A Crime"

Let's do it
Let's do it
Let's do it
If you love me

I'm a moon-walker, I'm like MJ up in the clouds
I know it sounds awkward, I'm filthy as charged, filthy as charged
You're a sweet talker, but darlin' whatcha gonna say now?
The midnight marauders, the higher never come down, never come down

You can't take me anywhere, anywhere
You can't take me anywhere, anywhere
I'm still uninvited, I'm still gonna light it, I'm going insane
And I don't care
(Let's do it, let's do it, let's do it)
Whatever they tell you...
(If you love me)

Dancin' (ooo), dancin' (ooo)
Dancin's not a crime, 'less you do it without me, 'less you do it without me
(If you love me)
Ooh
Dancin' (ooo), dancin' (ooo)
Dancin's not a crime
Unless you do it (do it), do it (do it), do it do it do it without me (If you love me)
(If you love me) Without me
(If you love me)

And if you're night crawlin' with him, I won't take it lying down
I've got a few lawyers and you're guilty as charged, guilty as charged
We could be waltzin', yeah
But darlin' don't be throwing shade now
Don't call me Saint California if you're at another altar
Just gimme your vows, gimme your vows, yeah

You can't take me anywhere, anywhere
You can't take me anywhere, anywhere
I'm still uninvited, I'm still gonna light it, I'm going insane
And I don't care
(Let's do it, let's do it, let's do it)
Whatever they tell you...
(If you love me)

Dancin' (ooo), dancin' (ooo)
Dancin's not a crime, 'less you do it without me, 'less you do it without me (If you love me)
Dancin' (ooo), dancin' (ooo)
Dancin's not a crime
Unless you do it (do it), do it (do it), do it do it do it without me (If you love me)
(If you love me)
Without me
(If you love me)

Ooo-ooo-ooo
What's come over you?
Baby, just tell me now
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Why did you make that move?
'Cause I just wanna be your boyfriend/girlfriend, oh yeah
And I just wanna be your boyfriend/girlfriend, oh yeah, oh yeah
(Let's do it, let's do it, let's do it)
Whatever they tell you...
(If you love me)

Dancin' (ooo), dancin' (ooo)
Dancin's not a crime, 'less you do it without me, 'less you do it without me (If you love me)
Dancin' (ooo), dancin' (ooo)
Dancin's not a crime
Unless you do it (do it), do it (do it), do it do it do it without me (If you love me)

(If you love me)
Without me
Do it, do it, do it without me (If you love me)
(If you love me) Without me
(If you love me) Without me
(If you love me)

Brendon Urie explained in an interview with iHeartRadio, "The first time I remember putting a melody to that song I was impressed with it. I never thought I would write something like 'Dancing's Not A Crime'."
These lyrics contain a reference to Michael Jackson and his famous "moon walk".
Brendon Urie told Coup de Main, "I wrote that song with my friends, because I embarrass my friends every time we go out. I'm always that obnoxious friend that's dancing in public, and they're embarrassed to be around me."
"Dancing's Not a Crime" contains samples from "Get Down" by Chris Bernard.
