Hey man, I saw you standing there
You were bobbing your head to the beat as your fists start to clinch
Oh so tight
"no fear" in your eyes, and also on your shirt (and hat and pants)
Its your turn to show tonight, do your best to start a fight
Show us all that you can dance with your elbows and your hands
(dancing with friends, keeping the peace, if you didnt know Im being sarcastic)
When you feel the crowd start to move
Please try to resist the urge that you get
Try not to get upset and sock your neighbor right in the face
I know that coach meant well
But whats a dance to you is a fight to someone else
Keep your anger aside, kick back, enjoy the ride
And think how it could be if you showed some courtesy
Your hostility, it grows so easily
Youre the next victim of the dance that broke my jaw
Please dont get near
Youre the next victim of the dance that broke my jaw
Have some more beer, "no fear gear" is what you wear
Just because the music begins
Does not always mean a wrestling scene from wwf
Breaks out right to my left
And I got a ringside ticket
Ill challenge you or anyone anywhere
Sometimes I just want the football thrown in
Let the football game begin
And then say to myself as I think of someone else
Thats not what we came here for, well take no more
Whats going through your head?
To the point that someone is dead
Keep it up and youre out of here, youre out of here
And when youre outside by yourself and sitting all alone
Keep your head down
Cause were the ones that warned you
Youre the next victim of the dance that broke my jaw
Please dont get near
Youre the next victim of the dance that broke my jaw
Cant we just be friends in here?
Go drink some more beer
Kick your neighbors rear
Elbow to my ear
Cant we just be friends in here?
I was dancing by myself, and bothering no one else
When suddenly I was encountered by the beast
I ask so politely, "please just let me be"
But the next thing I remember, Im staring at the ceiling
Someone please, help me call security
Was on my feet, but now Im on the floor
That shithead doesnt show respect to me or to you
So now hes out the door
Not gonna hurt us anymore
That dance floor is free of hostility
And Im so glad hes gone
Its our turn to have fun
My message was clear, "were all friends in here"
But were not allowed to do the dance that broke my jaw
