Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Music is a teacher, well

That can teach you right from wrong

'Cause if you listen closely, well

There's a lesson in the song

Music is a doctor, well

That can cure a troubled mind

Listen to the music (Say it again)

The rhythms and the rhymes, well

[Verse 2]

'Cause music's takin' over

Music makes you dance, well

Music's takin' over

Just give music a chance (Say it again)

[Verse 3]

Music is a comfort, well

When you're all alone

Just turn up your music

And you don't need nobody home

Music is a power

People depend on every day

They make their decision

By the records that they play, oh

[Verse 4]

Music's takin' over

(Say it again now)

Music makes you dance

(Music make you, makes you wanna dance)

Music's takin' over

Just give music a chance (Oh, say it again)

[Verse 5]

Let's dance, let's dance

Let's dance, let's dance, oh

Let's dance, let's dance

Let's dance, let's dance, oh

[Verse 6]

Music is a sound

That makes the boys and girls get down (Get down)

Music is a sound

That makes the boys and girls get down (Get down)

[Verse 7]

Listen to the music, listen to the music

Listen to the music

Listen to the music

[Verse 8]

Music's takin' over (Takin' over, ay, ay)

Music makes you dance

(Makes you, makes you wanna dance)

Music's takin' over

Music makes you dance

(You wanna get down, get down, ay)

[Verse 9]

Music's takin' over

[Verse 10]

Get it on

Get it on

Get it on

Get it on

Music's takin' over

Music feels so good

[Verse 11]

Music's takin' over

(Music, music's takin' over)

Music makes you dance

(Oh, oh, music's takin' over)

Music's takin' over

(Music makes you dance)

[Verse 12]

Music's takin' over

Music makes you dance

Music's takin' over

Music makes you dance
