This is the safest word in your mouth
This is the safest room in the house
Where all is overseen and organized
According to its color and its size

It will not help you home or up the steps
Not untie your shoes or you undress
Or steady out the voice that you have shun
When singing to an audience of none

It is a slow dance you dance
I see that you do it well
It is a dead move you plan endlessly
I can tell
It is a slow dance you dance
Just a move away from standing still

Never [bad word] Always opposites of luxury
party for the few you would invite
The blow that never made it to the fight

It is a slow dance you dance
I see that you do it well
It is a dead move you plan endlessly
I can tell
It is a slow dance you dance
Just a move away from standing still
