Keep On Dancing
Cats on Trees Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Baby the roof is on fire
Two hands are driving this car
Beasts all around you are closer
Day two is frightening and cold
Baby the car goes faster
How fun, how fun
Oh don't take your gun, we wanna have some fun
We wanna keep on dancing, we can't keep on running
Oh don't take your gun, we wanna have some fun
We wanna keep on dancing, we can't keep on running
Hold your fire, silence, I'm holding your hand
Silence, I'm whispering a prayer
Believing we're living for love
Night fall, wolves on the road
Baby the beast is darker
You too are frightening and cold
Baby the car goes deeper
How fun, how fun
If only the sky could say
Oh don't take your gun, we wanna have some fun
We wanna keep on dancing, we can't keep on running
Oh don't take your gun, we wanna have some fun
We wanna keep on dancing, we can't keep on running
Hold your fire, silence I'm holding your hand
Silence, I'm whispering a prayer
Believing we're living for love
For love
Hold your fire, silence, I'm holding your hand
Silence, I'm whispering a prayer
Believing we're living for love
Hold your fire, silence, I'm holding your hand
Silence, I'm whispering a prayer
Believing we're living for love
Hold your fire, silence, I'm holding your hand
Silence, I'm whispering a prayer
Believing we're living for love
For love
For love
In Cats on Trees's song Keep On Dancing, the lyrics tell a story of two people who are in the midst of a dangerous situation, potentially being pursued by "beasts" and "wolves." Despite this, they hold onto each other and keep driving, seeking joy and dancing in the midst of the chaos. The repeated refrain of "Oh don't take your gun, we wanna have some fun, we wanna keep on dancing, we can't keep on running" emphasizes this desire to keep moving forward and find joy in the face of danger.
The first verse sets up the scene, with the singer locking the door and realizing that the roof is on fire. The second day is even more intense, with the car going faster and the beasts getting closer. However, the chorus emphasizes the desire to keep dancing and not give up. The bridge provides a moment of tender vulnerability, with the singer holding onto their partner's hand and whispering a prayer.
As the night falls and the beasts get darker, the singer realizes that they themselves are also "frightening and cold." However, they still want to keep dancing and find joy in the midst of the danger. The song ends with the same refrain, emphasizing the desire for love and joy to prevail.
Overall, Keep On Dancing is a powerful anthem of resilience and perseverance in the face of danger. It encourages the listener to keep moving forward, not give up, and seek joy and love even in the darkest of times.

Day one you're locking the door
Jour un, tu fermes la porte
Baby the roof is on fire
Chéri le toit est en feu
Two hands are driving this car
Deux mains conduisent cette voiture
Beasts all around you're closer
Des bêtes tout autour, tu es plus près
Day two you're sweating and cold
Jour deux, tu transpires et as froid
Baby the car goes faster
Chéri la voiture va plus vite
How fun how fun if only the sky could say
Quel amusement, quel amusement, si le ciel pouvait le dire
Oh don't take your gun, we wanna have some fun
Oh ne prends pas ton arme, nous voulons juste nous amuser
We wanna keep on dancing we can't keep on running
Nous voulons continuer à danser, on ne peut continuer à fuir
Oh don't take your gun, we wanna have some fun
Oh ne prends pas ton arme, nous voulons juste nous amuser
We wanna keep on dancing we can't keep on running
Nous voulons continuer à danser, on ne peut continuer à fuir
Hold your fire silence I'm holding your hand
Garde ton arme silencieuse, je tiens ta main
Silence I'm whispering a prayer
Silence, je chuchote une prière,
Believing we're living for love
En croyant que nous vivons pour l'amour
Night fall, wolves on the road
Nuit tombée, des loups sur la route
Baby the beast is darker
Chéri la bête est plus sombre
You too are frightening and cold
Toi aussi tu es effrayant et froid
Baby the car goes deeper
Chéri la voiture va plus loin
How fun how fun if only the sky could say
Que c'est amusant, que c'est amusant, si le ciel pouvait le dire
Oh don't take your gun, we wanna have some fun
Oh ne prends pas ton arme, nous voulons juste nous amuser
We wanna keep on dancing, we can't keep on running
Nous voulons continuer à danser, on ne peut continuer à fuir
Oh don't take your gun, we wanna have some fun
Oh ne prends pas ton arme, nous voulons juste nous amuser
We wanna keep on dancing, we can't keep on running
Nous voulons continuer à danser, on ne peut continuer à fuir
Hold your fire silence I'm holding your hand
Garde ton arme silencieuse, je tiens ta main
Silence I'm whispering a prayer
Silence, je chuchote une prière
Believing we're living for love
En croyant que nous vivons pour l'amour
For love
Pour l'amour
Hold your fire silence I'm holding your hand
Garde ton arme silencieuse, je tiens ta main
Silence I'm whispering a prayer
Silence, je chuchote une prière
You're living you're living for love
Tu vis, tu vis pour l'amour
Hold your fire silence I'm holding your hand
Garde ton arme silencieuse, je tiens ta main
Silence I'm whispering a prayer
Silence, je chuchote une prière
Believing we're living for love
Croire que nous vivons pour l'amour
Hold your fire silence I'm holding your hand
Garde ton arme silencieuse, je tiens ta main
Silence I'm whispering a prayer
Silence, je chuchote une prière
You're living you're living for love

Cette chanson me rappelle trop 2018-2019, une de mes meilleures périodes où le monde marchait droit. Des que je la réécoute, je suis aux anges.

La voix est pure. Le piano. La batterie. C’est juste magnifique. C’est ma chanson préférée de votre album Neon. Ce sont un peu les mêmes ingrédients que Siren Call qui était exceptionnel.
J’ai 65 ans ( toutes les générations vous écoutent)

Timbre de voix ..... Ouf .... C'est magnifique ....
Merci pour cette pure merveille 💖
On s'évade en l'écoutant ❤

Juste par bulles fraîches, le rebond des quelques notes d'harmonies, alliance des saveurs perpétuelles du son. Musique pour toujours. A nos mélodies poursuivies. Création et dansons ,chantons selon les tyrannies, les orchestres de la cruauté n'existent plus. Nos seuls espoirs, hélas. Combattre et vaincre. l'insanité de sapiens l'écraseur, au pieds en patins.

J'adore les covers, mais cette chanson est tellement parfaite qu'on ne pourrait la rendre meilleure
