Analysis of Dance
Old time, new time, Rhythm and rhyme
Dance!
Take a chance
Cha cha cha
Come on in
Everybody spin
Cha cha cha
Get on your pony
Do the twist
Macaroni
Flick of the wrist
Yankee Doodle
It's time to dance
Let the music move you
Take a chance
Cha cha cha
Come on in
Everybody spin
Cha cha cha
Jazz, tap, hip-hop, ballet
Mix it up Maestro
Take it away
Country, rock or soul
Go ahead and let it roll
Cha cha cha
Come on in
Everybody spin
Cha cha cha
Old time, new time, rhythm and rhyme
Dance!
