Lyrics

[Verse 1]

And if the world is endin' now

Then let's dance the bad dance

We've been rehearsing our whole lives

[Verse 2]

Well, don't just stand there, why don't you follow me around?

My truth is slack and loose, my morals are unsound

But I'm amusing, I'm amazing, I'm impure

Dip your toes into the chaos, it'll feel just like a cure

[Verse 3]

And if the world is endin' now

Let's dance the bad dance

We've been rehearsin' our whole lives

And if we're all goin' down in flames

Let's dance the bad dance

We've been rehearsin' our whole lives

[Verse 4]

Come over here and show me that you crave a little more

Let me defame you, and defile you on the floor

Well, I'm indulgent, I'm impulsive, I'm profane

Doesn't matter how long you last 'cause I have rigged the game

[Verse 5]

And if the world is endin' now

Then let's dance the bad dance

We've been rehearsin' our whole lives

And if we're all goin' down in flames

Then let's dance the bad dance

We've been rehearsin' our whole lives

[Verse 6]

Be the weapon, be the love

Be the weapon, be the love

Be the weapon, be the love

Be the weapon, be the love

[Verse 7]

And if the world is endin' now

Let's dance the bad dance

We've been rehearsin' our whole lives

And if we're all goin' down in flames

Then let's scream the bloody scream

We've been rehearsin' our whole lives
