Let's Dance To Joy Division

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm back in Liverpool

And everything seems the same

But I worked something out last night

That changed this little boys brain

A small piece of advice

That took twenty-two years in the make

And I will break it for you now

Please learn from my mistakes

Please learn from my mistakes

Let's dance to Joy Division

And celebrate the irony

Everything is going wrong

But we're so happy

Let's dance to Joy Division

And raise our glass to the ceiling

'Cos this could all go so wrong

But we're just so happy

Yeah we're so happy

So if your ever feeling down

Grab your purse and take a taxi

To the darker side of town

That's where we'll be

And we will wait for you and lead you through the dancefloor

Up to the D.J booth

You know what to ask for

You know what to ask for

Go ask for Joy Division

And celebrate the irony

Everything is going wrong

But we're so happy

Let's dance to Joy Division

And raise our glass to the ceiling

'Cos this could all go so wrong

But we're just so happy

So happy

So let the love tear us apart

I've found the cure for a broken heart

Let it tear us apart

let the love tear us apart

I've found the cure for a broken heart

Let it tear us apart

(Let it tear us apart)

So let the love tear us apart

I've found the cure for a broken heart

Let it tear us apart

(Let it tear us apart)

So let the love tear us apart

I've found the cure for a broken heart

Let it tear us apart

Let it tear us apart

Let it tear us apart

Let's dance to Joy Division

And celebrate the irony

Everything is going wrong

But were so happy

Let's dance to Joy Division

And raise our glass to the ceiling

'Cos this could all go so wrong

But we're just so happy

Yeah we're so happy

So happy

Yeah we're so happy

So happy

Yeah we're so happy
