The world's goin' crazy out there People fightin', flames ignitin' World's goin' crazy out there these days But here is where we turn up the music Let the big band play as we're dancin' Dancin' the world away The world's goin' crazy all right Big commotion, 'cross the ocean World's goin' crazy out all right, tonight But here we got our friends and our family Here is where we stay, keep on dancin' Dancin' the world away! 'Cause who knows, who knows Just what the future brings Who knows, who knows Just what may be in store But the trumpet blows And the choir sings And we hit the floor For more, more, more, more, more! World's goin' crazy, world's goin' crazy, World's goin' crazy tonight, World's goin' crazy tonight, The world's goin' crazy tonight Bombs are flyin', people dyin' World's goin' crazy tonight, all right We can't keep dancin' the world away Can't put this out of sight We must fight!
