They ran through the darkness full of dreams and hopes
The streets echoed with their whispers and cries
They travelled towards the light from the holy fire of the shoddy pubs
They drank until they crashed, for the youth is so wild
'Cause who can stop
When the shadows start dancing
And the bodies start whirling around?
Even if it hurt, they'd only regret it
For a fraction of a second
A second
They did their jobs, or they'd just be fired
And never before have this many people had this bad a headache as them
How they get their money? No one knows
And it's been that way since the time of the King of Diamonds
'Cause who can stop
When the shadows start dancing
And the bodies start whirling around?
Even if it hurt, they'd only regret it
For a fraction of a second
A second
Yeah, who can stop
When the shadows start dancing
And the bodies start whirling around?
Even if it hurt, they'd only regret it
For a fraction of a second
A second, a second
