Dance To The Music

Please, please, give me a break
I broke your poor heart, it was a mistake
Oh girl, you knew all along
If you fool around, you pay for the song
And if you dance to the music
You got to pay the piper
And if your playing with the piper
You got pay for the song
I feel like I'm fallin', I'm losin' it all
You know what loves all about
You figured it wrong, so figure it out
And if you dance to the music
You got to pay the piper
And if your playing with the piper
You got pay for the song
And if you dance to the music
You got to pay the piper
And if your playing with the piper
You got pay for the song
Words from the heart you relied on baby
Love must be moved, not tried on baby
Cry on baby
And if you dance to the music
You got to pay the piper
And if your playing with the piper
You got pay for the song
And if you dance to the music
You got to pay the piper
And if your playing with the piper
You got pay for the song
