Dance, Soterios Johnson, Dance

A voice like honey, no one else could fill his shoes

The time and the weather, the headlines and the local news

He lays it down with perfection and grace

Done by noon, he goes home to his place

Where he sleeps and he waits for the night

Just before midnight he gets up, gets out of bed

A can of Red Bull, a tab of X to clear his head

He shoots his cuffs, now he’s headed downtown

Picks up one life, puts another one down

And his body hums and the music’s playing

Dance, Soterios Johnson, dance

It’s a cold world, nobody understands

The feeling you can’t keep inside

Go, Soterios Johnson, go

All the club kids are watching your glowstick glow

With the light of a truth you can’t hide

That the news is the news, but the dance goes on forever

He shimmies his shoulders, undulates his slender hips

Arms akimbo, Jaggeresque, he pouts his lips

A circle forms, everybody comes 'round

Just to hear the incredible sound

Of a genius smashing expectations

Dance, Soterios Johnson, dance

It’s a cold world, nobody understands

The feeling you can’t keep inside

Go, Soterios Johnson, go

All the club kids are watching your glowstick glow

With the light of a truth you can’t hide

That the news is the news, but the dance goes on forever

He’s dancing, he’s a machine

Like no one, that they’ve ever seen

He’s flying, he’s living a dream

The magic fades as the sun comes up, it’s time he goes

A hand on his shoulder, he turns around: it’s Teri Gross

He takes her hand, spins her body just so

He holds her close, he will never let go

As the room explodes, they dance like angels

Dance, Soterios Johnson, dance

It’s a cold world, nobody understands

The feeling you can’t keep inside

Go, Soterios Johnson, go

All the club kids are watching your glowstick glow

With the light of a truth you can’t hide

That the news is the news, but the dance goes on

That the news is the news, but the dance goes on

That the news is the news, but the dance goes on forever
