Oh people, get up and dance
The new days comin', it's the end of a chance
No need to worry, no need to hide
Everybody is on the same side
Oh people, get up and dance

The future's ours if we just take a chance
No need to hurry, but no time to waste
The year 2000 is the time of hate
Oh people, get up and dance

Like walkin' along an electric beam
It's the old crystal palace dream
Oh people, get up and dance
The new days comin', it's the end of a chance
The future's ours if we just take a chance
No need to hurry, but no time to waste
So come on people, get up and dance

Yeah, get up and dance
C'mon, lets get up and dance
Golden days
Get up and dance
We'll have diamond nights
Get up and dance
We got sweet light shinin'
Get up and dance
Golden days
Get up and dance
We'll have diamond nights
C'mon people, get up and dance
C'mon, get up and dance
Let's dance
Get up and dance

One, two, three, four billion souls are gonna rest
If all our friends don't try their best
To change the way this world is headed for
We can find our hapiness
It aint so hard to find
Just look a little further up the line
Just a little further up in time
Don't you see that we could be the first in history
Leavin' all that we don't need behind
We could clean it up and make it shine

I'm gonna hang on your neck just like a verdilac
Take you for a ride in my cadillac
Well I tried, I tried but I can't make you understand
Baby can't you see I'm more than just a man

If you don't bring me coffee in my favourite cup
You're make it necessary for me to conjure up
Spirits
Spirits

I'm gonna hang on your neck just like good luck
Take you for a ride in my cadillac
Well I tried, I tried but I can't make you understand

If you don't bring me coffee in my favourite cup
You're make it necessary for me to conjure up
Spirits
Spirits

The bird sings outside my piano
Lark of sweet love singing low
The more I play, the more he sings
He lives right up there in the green tree
Singing to me melodies
And in return, I play for him
I played him a song on my piano
Well I played real good, I played what I could
And in return, he sang for me
He lives right there in the tree
Giving me his melodies
A bird sings outside my piano

Well I played real good, I played what I could
And in return, he sang for me
He lives right there in the tree
Giving me his melodies
A bird sings outside my piano

A bird sings outside my piano
Lark of sweet love singing low
He lives right there in the tree
Singing the melodies
The more I play, the more he sings
The bird sings outside my piano

You know it just done slipped my mind
Just done slipped my mind
Just so hard to find
You know it just done slipped my mind
I left my body somewhere down the line
It's just so easy to lose track of time
You know it just done slipped my mind
You know it just done slipped my mind

It wouldn't matter but it's time to meditate
You know it just done slipped my mind
My memories undefined
They must haved spiked my wine
Because it just done slipped my mind

My mind and body are still out of tune
I hope they run into each other real soon
You know it just done slipped my mind
You know it just done slipped my mind
I wouldn't mind but it's cold here on the moon
You know it just done slipped my mind

You know it just done slipped my mind
My memories undefined
You know it just done slipped my mind
They must have spiked my wine
My mind and body are still out of tune
I hope they run into each other real soon
You know it just done slipped my mind
You know it just done slipped my mind

I wouldn't mind but it's cold here on the moon
You know it just done slipped my mind
You know it just done slipped my mind

Well, I heard a story you can judge it's worth
About the sun and the moon
This time they came down to earth

They passed in the heavens each day up above
Time after time and it soon became love

They could not touch, they could not kiss
They had no flesh, no earthly bliss

So they made a scheme, they made a plan
They would come down to earth as a woman and a man

She rode a lunar wave, he flew a solar beam
They took on human forms to live out a dream

The most beautiful people that I've ever seen
They were the Peking King and the New York Queen
I said the Peking King and the New York Queen.

As fate would have it in the toss of the dice
They went to opposite ends of this world of our lives
Opposite eyes, opposite minds
Such things matter in these troubled times.

Peking in the East and New York in the West
Each place thought that it was the best
But the sun and the moon on their earthly quest
Knew without a doubt that it was all the best

They said what does it matter how you read a book
It's all the same no matter how it looks.

Well the only thing important to the Peking King
Was bein' in the arms of his New York Queen

Thousand of miles, they were so far apart
How to get together? Oh, where to start?

On the California Zephyr and the Shanghai Express
He headed to Hong Kong, she headed out west.

No passports, no visas, no government quotas
No secret missile sites in South Dakota

No red tape, no red guard could stop the dream
Of the Peking King and the New York Queen
I said, the Peking King and the New York Queen

Well they found a little island in the Phillipines
It was a perfect little place to live out a dream
They say East is East, West is West
They say the twain won't meet, but don't you take that bet

'Cause you're invited to a wedding and to share the dream
Of the Peking King and the New York Queen
The Peking King and the New York Queen.

'Cause you're invited to a wedding and to share the dream
'Cause you're invited to a wedding and to share the dream
Of the Peking King and the New York Queen
The Peking King and the New York Queen.

You're invited to the wedding of the sun and the moon
