We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind
D D4 D C9 G

Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
C9 G

Well they're no friends of mine
C9 G

I say, we can go where we want to, a place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind

and we can dance
D D4

We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
Well they're are no friends of mine

I say, we can go where we want to a place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind

and we can dance.
D

And sing!
D4

Ah we can go when we want to the night is young and so am I
And we can dress real neat from our hats to our feet
and surprise 'em with the victory cry

We can act if want to if we don't nobody will
And you can act real rude and totally removed
And I can act like an imbecile

We can dance, we can dance everything out of control
C9 G C9 G

We can dance, we can dance we're doing it wall to wall
C9 G C9 G

We can dance, we can dance everybody look at your hands
C9 G C9 G

We can dance, we can dance everybody takin' the chance
C9 G C9 F C9

Safety dance Oh well the safety dance Ah yes the safety dance
F C9 F C9 F C9

We can dance if we want to, we've got all your life and mine
As long as we abuse it, never gonna lose it
Everything'll work out right

I say, we can dance if we want to we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
Well they're are no friends of mine

I say we can dance, we can dance everything out of control
We can dance, we can dance we're doing it wall to wall
We can dance, we can dance everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance everybody's takin' the chance
Oh Well the safety dance
ah yes the safety dance
Oh well the safety dance
Oh well the safety dance
Oh yes the safety dance
Oh the safety dance yeah
Oh it's the safety dance
It's the safety dance
Well it's the safety dance
Oh it's the safety dance
Oh it's the safety dance
Oh it's the safety dance
Oh it's the safety dance

This song some what sounds like its talking about one of the themes of the 80's carpie dieum. Just look at it We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance Well they're are no friends of mine -sounds like he is saying hey do what you want and if your friends don't want to well go ahead and do it any way

So here it is: The songs about anti-nukes.The whole song is talking about dancing, like dancing around the fact to launch or not. And choosing friends to "dance with". Also how safe is it realy to dance with them. "Pole to Pole" would mean how everyone is getting involved with the idea. Im not realy sure but its the best i could get. The songs still good and the video is realy odd.

About 58 seconds into the music video, after "and I can act like and imbecile" and starting at "Everything's outta control" , You can see the midget start to come swinging at Ivan(the singer) with the madolin and Ivan leaning against the gate, bracing for impact. I'm sure you've all caught it, but's it's just a little part in it I thought was funny. MIDGET'S REVENGE!!!
