Dance Yrself Clean

Walking up to me expecting

Walking up to me expecting words

It happens all the time

Present company excepted

Present company except the worst

It happens every night

Present company excluded every time

Present company, the best that you can find

Talking like a jerk

Except you are an actual jerk

And living proof that sometimes friends are mean

Present company expect it

Present company, just laugh it off

It's better than it seems

Present company excluded in every way

Present company, makes me wanna stay

Killing it with close inspection

Killing it can only make it worse

It sort of makes it breed

Present company accepting

Presently we all expect the worst

Works just like a need

Present company excluded in the night

Present company included in the fight

Don't you want me to wake up

Then give me just a bit of your time

Arguments are made for make-ups

So give it just a little more time

We've got to bring our results

I wanna play it 'til the time comes

But there's a string of divorces

You go and throw your little hands up

I miss the way the night comes

With friends who always make it feel good

And, this basement, it has a cold glow

Though it's better than a lot of others

So go and dance yourself clean

Go and dance yourself clean, yeah

You're blowing Marxism to pieces

All the little arguments, to pieces
