[Verse 1]
She tells me
Write a happy song
Not a depressing one
A song that everyone loves
She tells me
You'd be a millionaire
You'll have something to be proud of
Don't end up like your father
She tells me
Don't lock yourself up in your room
Come on, loosen up and dance
Tell me, what's your problem
She tells me
You seem so inhibited
You're either high or you're gay
You'll end up like your brother
She tells me

[Chorus]
She tells me, it's your life
Do what you want, who cares
One day you'll understand
One day you'll be mad at yourself
She tells me, you're so useless
Get out of your bubble, just a bit
All you do is nonsense
And you seem to like it that way

[Hook]
Why do you waste your life?
Why do you waste your life?
Why do you waste your life?
Dance, dance, dance, she tells me, "dance"
Why do you waste your life?
Why do you waste your life?
Why do you waste your life?
Dance, dance, dance

[Verse 2]
She tells me
Do what the others boys do
Go kick around a ball
You'll be popular
She tells me
You're always screwing around on the internet
It isn't good for your head
Look at the time you're wasting
She tells me
Why do you complain all the time?
You're like an 8 year old
No one will like you that way
She tells me
One day I'll no longer be here
And it's when she tells me this
That she tells me something I like
[Chorus]
She tells me, it's your life
Do what you want, who cares
One day you'll understand
One day you'll be mad at yourself
She tells me, you're so useless
Get out of your bubble, just a bit
All you do is nonsense
And you seem to like it that way

[Hook]
Why do you waste your life?
Why do you waste your life?
Why do you waste your life?
Dance, dance, dance, she tells me, "dance"
Why do you waste your life?
Why do you waste your life?
Why do you waste your life?
Dance, dance, dance


[Verse 3]
She tells me
You don't yet have grey hair
But you'll soon be 30
You better wake up
She tells me
You're still a kid
You'll never grow up
And me, I'm already old
She tells me
Look at your friends
What will they make of their life?
There's something to fuck up
She tells me
One day you'll kill me
And it's when she tells me this
That she tells me something I like
[Bridge]
She tells me, "dance"
She tells me "dance, dance, dance"
She tells me, "dance"
She tells me "dance, dance, dance"

She tells me, "dance"
She tells me "dance, dance, dance"
She tells me "dance, dance, dance"
Dance, dance, dance she tells me, "dance"

[Chorus]
She tells me, it's your life (She tells me "dance, dance, dance")
Do what you want, who cares (She tells me "dance")
One day you'll understand (She tells me "dance, dance, dance")
One day you'll be mad at yourself (She tells me "dance")
She tells me, you're so useless (She tells me "dance, dance, dance")
Get out of your bubble, just a bit (She tells me "dance, dance, dance, dance")
All you do is nonsense (Dance, dance, dance)
And you seem to like it that way (She tells me "dance")

[Hook]
Why do you waste your life? (She tells me "dance, dance, dance")
Why do you waste your life? (She tells me "dance")
Why do you waste your life? (She tells me "dance, dance, dance")
"Dance, dance, dance" she tells me, "dance"
Why do you waste your life? (She tells me "dance, dance, dance")
Why do you waste your life? (She tells me "dance, dance, dance, dance")
Why do you waste your life?
Dance, dance, dance
She tells me, "dance"
