Voice like honey, no one else could fill his shoes
The time and the weather, headlines and the local news
He lays it down with perfection and grace
Done by noon, he goes home to his place
Where he sleeps and he waits for the night

Just before midnight he gets up, gets out of bed
A can of Red Bull, a tab of X to clear his head
He shoots his cuffs, now he's headed downtown
Picks up one life, puts another one down
And his body hums and the music's playing

Dance, Soterios Johnson, dance
It's a cold world, nobody understands
It's a feeling you can't keep inside
Go, Soterios Johnson, go
All the club kids are watching your glowstick glow
With the light of a truth you can't hide
That the news is the news, but the dance goes on forever

He shimmies his shoulders, undulates his slender hips
Arms akimbo, Jaggeresque, he pouts his lips
A crowd has formed, they are gathering 'round
Just to hear the incredible sound
Of a genius smashing expectations
Dance, Soterios Johnson, dance
It's a cold world, nobody understands
It's a feeling you can't keep inside
Go, Soterios Johnson, go
All the club kids are watching your glowstick glow
With the light of a truth you can't hide
That the news is the news, but the dance goes on forever

He's dancing, he's a machine
Like no one, that they've ever seen
He's flying, he's living a dream

The magic fades as the sun comes up, it's time he goes
He takes a quick shower, shaves, and puts on office clothes
He hails a cab in the early grey dawn
Gets to work and turns his microphone on
And his dulcet tones wake up this city

Dance, Soterios Johnson, dance
It's a cold world, nobody understands
It's a feeling you can't keep inside, oh
Go, Soterios Johnson, go
All the club kids are watching your glowstick glow
With the light of a truth you can't hide
That the news is the news, but the dance goes on forever
