You must have been a dance commander
Giving out the order for fun
You must have been a dance commander
You know that he's the only one
Who gives the orders here?
Alright
Who gives the orders here?
Alright

It would be awesome
If we could dance
It would be awesome, yeah
Let's take the chance
It would be awesome, yeah
Let's start the show
Because you never know
You never know
You never know
Until you go

Alright
Alright
Who gives the orders here?
Who gives the orders here?

The lights are strong
The orders are in
The dance commanders are ready to sin
Radio message from HQ

Let's get this party started right y'all
Let's get this party started right
I went to the store to get more fire!
To start the war
Everybody in the store was whack
I feel like heading straight for a heart attack

Girls are pretty
Girls are nice
Take your chances
Roll the dice
