Off The Wall
Michael Jackson & The Jacksons Lyrics

When the world is on your shoulder
When you feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders

Gotta straighten up your act and boogie down
You need to get your act together and dance like nobody is watching

If you can't hang with the feelin'
If you can't handle the excitement

Then there ain't no room for you this part of town
You won't fit in here if you can't keep up

'Cause we're the party people night and day
We are the people who never stop partying

Livin' crazy that's the only way
Living life to the fullest is the only way to live

So tonight gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf
Tonight you need to forget about your job

And just enjoy yourself, c'mon
And have fun, come on

Groove, let the madness in the music get to you
Dance and let the music take over you

Life ain't so bad at all
Life is actually pretty good

If you live it off the wall
If you live your life unconventionally

You can shout out all you want to
You can be as loud as you want

'Cause there ain't no sin in folks all getting loud
There's nothing wrong with everyone being loud

If you take the chance and do it
If you take the risk and have fun

There ain't no one who's gonna put you down
No one is going to judge you

Do what you want to do
Do whatever makes you happy

There ain't no rules it's up to you (ain't no rules it's all up to you)
There are no rules, you can do whatever you want

It's time to come alive
It's time to live your life to the fullest

And party on right through the night (all right)
And party all night long

Gotta hide your inhibitions
You need to let go of your fears

Gotta let that fool loose deep inside your soul
You need to let your inner party animal out

Want to see an exhibition
Want to see something wild and crazy

Better do it now before you get too old
Do it now before you're too old to have fun

So tonight gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf (living off the wall)
Tonight you need to forget about work and live unconventionally

And just enjoy yourself (Living off the wall)
And have fun, living unconventionally

C'mon and groove (yeah) and let the madness in the music get to you (Living off the wall)
Come on and dance and let the music take over you, living unconventionally

Life ain't so bad at all
Life is actually pretty good
