Dance Like Snoopy

if you have to dance, dance with your hands whirling
allow yourself freedom to let your feet go twirling
slip and slide and throw yourself into the air
without any inhibitions, do all the squirming you dare

If you go dancing, do it the excited Snoopy way
You will be happy that you did this, by the end of the day
Clap and stomp and kick and slide, do whatever you can
To show you are not afraid of a boss or disapproving old man.

dance with pure happiness, throw your arms out with glee
shimmy and shake, dance alongside at least three
spin with happiness, give your soul opportunity for joy
dance yourself into enthusiasm, making the floor your own toy.
