Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I tiptoe in shimmer where the shadows are thin
The bass starts purring like it's letting me in
My shoes squeak twice but I don't mind
Cause the rhythm takes its sweet time
Rooftop chatter curling up in the air
Everybody's moving like they haven't a care
I catch your eye from across the room
Suddenly I'm dancing before I even move
[Pre-Chorus]
I almost remember your name
Spinning on the tip of my tongue
If I take one step will you meet me halfway
Or disappear before we've begun
[Chorus]
Don't step on my moonwalk shoes
I'm glidin' don't make me lose my groove
The band is winking the crowd is smirking
I moonwalk sideways but I'm never nervous
Don't step on my moonwalk shoes
I've got a little rhythm to prove
If the floor starts shaking let it shake
We're gonna dance till the whole thing breaks
[Post-Chorus]
Boo-ba-doo ba-da-bam
Slide to the left come on take my hand
Boo-ba-doo don't lose the beat
Two little rabbits with dancing feet
[Verse 2]
The drummer drops a beat and I turn around
Somebody's laughing when I slide across the ground
You grab my hand like come on let's go
Now we're two loose wheels on a runaway road
The horns pop off like a Saturday night
The bass keeps bouncing and the timing feels right
No fancy plan no reason to know
Just follow my feet and let the good times roll
[Pre-Chorus]
I almost remember your name
But I like forgetting tonight
Take one step then another one
And suddenly everything's right
[Chorus]
Don't step on my moonwalk shoes
I'm glidin' don't make me lose my groove
The band is winking the crowd is smirking
I moonwalk sideways but I'm never nervous
Don't step on my moonwalk shoes
I've got a little rhythm to prove
If the floor starts shaking let it shake
We're gonna dance till the whole thing breaks
[Post-Chorus]
Boo-ba-doo ba-da-bam
Slide to the left come on take my hand
Boo-ba-doo don't lose the beat
Two little rabbits with dancing feet
[Bridge]
Hold it
Let the bass talk low
Let the drums fall back
We don't have to rush anymore
One little clap
One little step
You look at me
And I lose my breath
[Dubstep Breakdown]
Wobble in let the whole floor shake
Kick so hard that the speakers quake
Chop that voice let it bounce around
Bass drops heavy like thunder underground
Left foot
Right foot
Don't lose track
Pull it apart
Bring it back
Wub wub shake it loose
Wub wub moonwalk shoes
[Breakdown Landing]
Now the room goes quiet
Just a pulse in the dark
One little melody
One little spark
Take a breath
Hold it there
I can hear your footsteps
Coming through the air
[Final Chorus]
Don't step on my moonwalk shoes
I'm glidin' don't make me lose my groove
The band comes roaring the crowd starts moving
Everybody's laughing nobody's choosing
Don't step on my moonwalk shoes
Tonight we've got nothing to lose
If the whole world shakes let it shake
We'll dance until the morning breaks
Don't step on my moonwalk shoes
I'm glidin' right back to you
All of the noise all of the motion
Feels like a wave across the ocean
Don't step on my moonwalk shoes
We're still dancing when the music's through
If everything breaks we'll start again
You pull me out and I'm alright
[Outro]
You pull me out
And I'm alright
One tiny chime
