Rhythm Is A Dancer
Snap Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's a soul's companion
People feel it everywhere
Lift your hands and voices
Free your mind and join us
You can feel it in the air
Oh, it's a passion
Oh, it's a passion
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Rhythm is a dancer
It's a soul's companion
People feel it everywhere
Lift your hands and voices
Free your mind and join us
You can feel it in the air
Oh
How very like the future this place might be
It's a tiny world just big enough
To support the cubicle of one knowledge worker
I feel a wave of loneliness and head back down
Now I'm going too fast
Rhythm is a dancer
It's a soul's companion
People feel it everywhere
Lift your hands and voices
Free your mind and join us
You can feel it in the air
Oh
I plunge right on through the office door
And into the bottomless sinkhole below
Suddenly I can't remember how to stop or turn around
Do I point behind myself?
Do I have to turn around before I can point?
I flip into brain fugue
Rhythm is a dancer
It's a soul's companion
People feel it everywhere
Lift your hands and voices
Free your mind and join us
You can feel it in the air
Oh
“Rhythm is a Dancer” by Snap! is a classic 90s dance anthem that captures the essence of the era and the feeling of freedom and unity that comes from dancing. The song starts with the chorus line “Rhythm is a dancer” which is repeated throughout the song, and it means that dance is something that connects people and brings their souls together. The song emphasizes the idea that dancing is not just a physical activity but an emotional and spiritual one as well, and that anyone can experience it, no matter where they are.
The next line emphasizes that people feel rhythm everywhere, which means that dance is a universal language. The song then encourages people to lift their hands and voices, free their minds, and join them. This is a call to the potential dancer inside us all, urging us to let loose and groove to the rhythm.
The third verse takes a surreal turn, describing a futuristic world that is isolating, lonely and where people work alone in their cubicles. This verse is a warning that if we lose our connection to dance and music, we risk becoming disconnected from others and ourselves. The final two verses are about the singer’s experience of this world, his feeling of being overwhelmed and lost as he tries to escape.
Overall, “Rhythm is a Dancer” is a song that celebrates the power of dance to bring people together, to transcend language and cultural barriers, and to create a shared experience that is universal. It’s a call to dance, to let go of our inhibitions and join together in a shared expression of joy and freedom.

Everyone senses the pulse of life around them
Lift your hands and voices
Celebrate the living with your hands and voice

Oh, it's a passion
The fullness of life and its rhythm can be a passionate experience
How very like the future this place might be

It's a tiny world just big enough
The world we live in is small, but holds enough for us to thrive
To support the cubicle of one knowledge worker
The world allows for a single worker to work and contribute to their field
I feel a wave of loneliness and head back down
A feeling of solitude hits me and I go back down
Now I'm going too fast
The pace of life becomes too quick
I plunge right on through the office door
I pass through the office door headfirst
And into the bottomless sinkhole below
I fall into a seemingly never-ending pit
Suddenly I can't remember how to stop or turn around
I lose track of how to stop or go back
Do I point behind myself?
I question whether I have to face the opposite way to point
Do I have to turn around before I can point?
I wonder if I need to turn before pointing behind me
I flip into brain fugue
I become overwhelmed and confused
Rhythm is a dancer
The flow of life is like a dance, which we all have to follow
It's a soul's companion
Our soul moves to the rhythm of life
People feel it everywhere
Everyone senses the pulse of life around them
Lift your hands and voices
Celebrate the living with your hands and voice
Free your mind and join us
Break free from mental chains and live in harmony
You can feel it in the air
The rhythm of life permeates the atmosphere
Oh
A word expressing intensity or emotion
