Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's so hot, I can't stop
The music fills the room
Vibrations, sensations
That beat goes boom boom boom

I've got to keep it together
I've got to keep it together
I've got to keep it together
Watch the crazy people dance

Let's dance
Show me, hold me, control me
Let's dance
Take me, shake me, make me

Just like that, don't hold back
Get crazy on the floor
We'll have fun all day long
And then we'll still want more

I've got to keep it together
I've got to keep it together
I've got to keep it together
Watch the crazy people dance

Let's dance
Show me, hold me, control me
Let's dance
Take me, shake me, make me

Let's dance tonight
Show me feels so right
Hold me, hold me tight
Control me

Let's dance right now
Take me spin me 'round
Shake me shake me down

Look in my eyes
You'll realize
We can't deny

I'm into you
And you're so into me
I know you can't fight
What is meant to be
Let's dance, I'm here

Let's dance tonight
Show me feels so right
Hold me, hold me tight
Control me

Let's dance right now
Take me, spin me 'round
Shake me, shake me down

Let's dance tonight
Show me feels so right
Hold me, hold me tight
Control me

Let's dance right now
Take me, spin me 'round
Shake me, shake me down
