The Human Race is runnin` over me
I punch a clock at 9 and 5
Just tryin` to make a livin`
A plastic face on satellite TV
Says, "Life is filled with give and take"
He`s takin` and I`m givin
So I dance
(Hook)
It`s my system of survival (SOS)
I`m dancin`
System of survival (SOS)
It`s a system of survival
Future revival
Greet the new arrival
(Bridge)
At times it`s the only way
I`m gonna make it through this day
(Chorus)
Everybody get up
Do your dance
Keep survivin`
Everybody get up
Do your dance
Stay alive
A city night
I walk a street in fear
While politicians brag about
A paperwork solution
Another life
I shed another tear
I`m waiting for somebody new
To lead the revolution
So I dance
(Hook)
It`s my system of survival...
(Repeat Hook and Chorus)
(SOS) Send it out
Send it out, send it out, send it out...
