[Hook]
You can't tell John Doe how to dance
See I can dance, I can dance
Like my name's John Doe
No one knowin' who I am?
See I can dance, I can dance
Like my name's John Doe
John Doe John Doe how to dance

[Verse 1]
Now he's the chief
Dance to make it rain while the kids would drink
They're like "damn, that kid is mean"
While the rest lookin' like Mr. Bean
Or Pistol Pete, no, no, he don't need
Nothin' smokin' hot hangin' off his side
A little like Frankenstein
Cause the day that he died he came alive

[Refrain]
John Doe's like Sherlock Holmes
Knowin' what's on is elementary
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
He's just like Michael Jordan
King by the time that he was twenty-three
So now you say...
[Hook]
You can't tell John Doe how to dance
See I can dance, I can dance
Like my name's John Doe
No one knowin' who I am
See I can dance, I can dance
Like my name's John Doe
John Doe John Doe how to move

[Pre-Verse]
Blue moon
We watched him with his legs
Like his name's John Snow
You cannot tell that man without a name how to move

[Verse 2]
And he was the man, imagine a man you can't fight
Last man standin', badness like Bison
Phantom to dance like Michael
When he dance and smile, like Dick Van Dyke would
Psycho whenever the beat dropped
He had feet like Godzilla, the whole city would heat up
Soon as he would step to the floor
You know...

[Hook]
You can't tell John Doe how to dance
See I can dance, I can dance
Like my name's John Doe
No one knowin' who I am
See I can dance, I can dance
Like my name's John Doe
You can't tell John Doe how to move
No, no
You can't tell John Doe how to move, no, no
[Verse 3]
John Doe just moved, moved like no-one's home, he was
Animated but no cartoon, he was
More than human, just like you
But he knew just what to do
The man danced to a different drum
Rule of thumb not to succumb and run
Up in that place with the rest of the raps
Cause none of them tend to come back

[Refrain]
John Doe's like Sherlock Holmes
Knowin' what's on is elementary
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
He's just like Michael Jordan
King by the time that he was twenty-three
So now you say...

[Hook]
You can't tell John Doe how to dance
See I can dance, I can dance
Like my name's John Doe
No one knowin' who I am
See I can dance, I can dance
Like my name's John Doe
You can't tell John Doe how to dance
See I can dance, I can dance
Like my name's John Doe
No one knowin' who I am
See I can dance, I can dance
Like my name's John Doe
