Even an alien can learn it
And I like it, I like it, I like it
That I don't feel down anymore
I like it 'cause it reminds me of you
Of when you danced in the street
And I like it, I like it, I like it
Lately I sleep all the time even if I don't dream
No live shows, fleece on the couch
If you sleep too much you wake up dead
Dance to stay afloat
In Mediterranean nightmares
What an ugly end for postcards
Our story's going down the drain
But who knows why we live if we don't dance
Come on, put on some dance music
So the windows of the house shake
And they can hear it, hear it, hear it
Even a relative from down south
Anyway tomorrow I don't work and I'll sleep all day
Hi, what's up? How long are you staying here in Milan?
But if he finds out, you're a dead man
Dance to stay afloat
In Mediterranean nightmares
What an ugly end stuck at the border
Our story's going down the drain
But who knows why we live if we don't dance
Finally I'm forty and I'm still hungry
I don't talk to my dog but there's a nice bond
And I'm also seeing someone
It's already three nights
You can't make history if you're missing food
You took everything from me except my appetite
Every now and then, in the distance, I still hear music that goes
Dance to stay afloat
In Mediterranean nightmares
What an ugly end for masks
Our story's going down the drain
But who knows why we live if we don't dance
