Daft Punk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know you don't get chance to take a break this often
I know your life is speeding and it isn't stopping
You take my shirt and just go ahead and wipe up all the
Sweat, sweat, sweat

Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance

Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance

I know you don't get chance to take a break this often
I know your life is speeding and it isn't stopping
You take my shirt and just go ahead and wipe up all the
Sweat, sweat, sweat

Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance

Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance
Lose yourself to dance

Everybody dancing on the floor

Everybody on the floor
Yeah, come on (lose yourself to dance)

Everybody dancing on the floor

One of the best albums of any genre in the last 20+ years. When you can get a life-long metalhead to dance, you've made a damn fine album.

@icemanstg

That's perfectly true Lemmy Head :-)
