Dancing with the Lion |
| Once upon a time not so long ago in a land not so far away |
| Right and wrong were not quite so hard to know |
| And black and white were not so gray |
| Times have changed and now it seems |
| Conscience has gone the way of the dinosaur |
| But I believe it’s still alive and well today |
| In the hearts of those who will stand up and say |
| CHORUS |
| I’m dancing with the dinosaur |
| Living my life with conscience and conviction |
| I don’t want to see the truth ignored |
| So I’ve gotta keep on dancing |
| I’ve gotta keep on dancing with the dinosaur |
| There’s a banner waving saying tolerance will set you free, it’s the latest |
| thing |
| While the consequences it leaves behind are like a ball and chain |
| But there’s a voice in everyone called conscience |
| That’s been around since God created man |
| And as we learn to listen to its whispering |
| We’ll find the greater freedom when we stand up and sing |
| (Chorus) |
| BRIDGE |
| Right is right and wrong is wrong just like it has been along |
| We cannot sit by and see conscience become history |
| So come on, get up and dance |
| Dance this dance with me |
| (Gonna keep on dancing, gonna keep on dancing with the dinosaur |
| Gonna keep on dancing, gonna keep on dancing with the dinosaur) |
| (Chorus) |
| (Outro) |
| (Gonna keep on dancing, gonna keep on dancing with the dinosaur |
| Gonna keep on dancing, gonna keep on dancing with the dinosaur) |
