Cast Of Victorious Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Its nine on the dot
And were just talking we talk
And I just wanted to stop
'Cause aren't we here for the music

And if you dare, just get up out of your chair cuz this ain't going nowhere
We've got to move or your loosing
All I want to know
(Know)
Is when were letting go so
We can get this record to break

What we waste to top (top)
We never can rewind
All I'm really trying to say

Is shut up n dance
Show me watcha got
Shut up n dance
Are you in or not
You moving your mouth baby don't speak
Well shut up n dance
If your into me

'Cause I cant want no more
Just get off the floor
Don't stop now is your chance

Shut up n dance
Till we drop
'Cause I'm sick of this space in between
You and me lying up
Till were making a scene
Quit the talk let it rock
If you know what I mean

Shut up n dance
Show me what you got
Shut up n dance
Are you in or not
Your moving your mouth baby don't speak
Well shut up n dance
If your into me

'Cause I can't wait no more
Get off the floor
Don't stop now its our chance

Shut up n dance dance dance dance
Shut up n dance dance dance dance
Put up your hands hands hands hands yeah




Shut up n dance dance dance dance yeah
Shut up n dance

I don't know what's weirder the fact that Trina's actually singing good or that Jade's actually smiling

Sketcher

The whole episode that this song comes from takes place in an alternate universe where EVERYTHING is one giant shitpost, so it makes sense that Trina's a talented singer, and Jade seems happier!

Lexa

I like this version better than the Studio version. They took out everyone else’s parts except Tori and Cat as the main harmony.

Jocelyn_xoxo
