Get up, get groovin', Start your movin' To the sounds around you As the world goes by Quit complaining, need no trainin' I wanna see you strainin' I wanna see you dance Don't ask me why Better get movin' Start your groovin' 'Cause life is passing you by! I've seen you here before You never move your feet You're such a pitiful sight Always sitting in your seat You say you want romance But you don't want to dance Well it's not gonna happen Unless you shake your pants Start your movin' So you better get groovin' 'Cause life is passing you by! GET UP! GET UP! Get up, get up, get up! You're all dressed up You look real fine But you don't dance So you waste my time You came from home alone You're leaving all alone It's no wonder, buddy You wouldn't get your ass up off your throne So start your movin' So you better get groovin' 'Cause life just passed you by!
