Let's dance
Lady Gaga Feat. Colby O'Donis & Akon - Just Dance Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There may be trouble ahead
But while there's moonlight and music and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance

Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill
And while we still have the chance
Let's face the music and dance

Soon, we'll be without the moon
Humming a different tune
And then, there may be tear drops to shed
So while there's moonlight and music and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance

Soon, we'll be without the moon
Humming a different tune
And then, and then, there may be tear drops to shed
So while there's moonlight and music and love and romance




Let's face the music and dance, dance
Let's face the music and dance

Overall Meaning

In Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett's song "Let's Face The Music And Dance," the lyrics suggest enjoying life's fleeting moments while they last. The opening line, "There may be trouble ahead," acknowledges the unpredictability of what's to come, but the subsequent lines of "moonlight and music and love and romance" present a contrasting bright side of life. The phrase "let's face the music and dance" serves as a metaphor for embracing life's challenges and obstacles and tackling them head-on with enthusiastic optimism.


The lyrics "before they ask us to pay the bill" implies that there will be consequences for our actions in the future, and "soon, we'll be without the moon" indicates that those moments of joy are short-lived. The concept of "humming a different tune" demonstrates the emotional shift that can happen when good times come to an end. The song concludes with a plea to make the most of the present and all its joy while acknowledging that it won't last forever.


Line by Line Meaning

There may be trouble ahead,
We may face difficulties in the future,


But while there's moonlight and music and love and romance,
During this moment of joyful celebration and affection,


Let's face the music and dance.
Let us confront whatever challenges come our way with optimism and by dancing.


Before the fiddlers have fled,

And while we still have the chance,
While we still have the opportunity,

Let us deal with our problems by enjoying ourselves and dancing.


Soon, we'll be without the moon,
The night will be over soon, and the moon will disappear,


Humming a different tune,
We will be singing a different song,


And then, there may be tear drops to shed.
We may have reason to cry and feel sorrowful.


So while there's moonlight and music and love and romance,
Let us enjoy this moment of happiness and love,


Let's face the music and dance, dance
