Hoobastank - The dance that broke my jaw
------------------------------------------

Hey man, I saw you standing there 
You were bobbing your head to the beat as your fists start to clinch 
Oh so tight 
No Fear in your eyes, and also on your shirt (and hat and pants) 
It's your turn to show tonight, do your best to start a fight 
Show us all that you can dance with your elbows and your hands 
(Dancing with friends, keeping the peace, if you didn't know I'm being sarcastic) 
When you feel the crowd start to move 
Please try to resist the urge that you get 
Try not to get upset and sock your neighbor right in the face 
I know that coach meant well 
But what's a dance to you is a fight to someone else 
Keep your anger aside, kick back, enjoy the ride 
And think how it could be if you showed some courtesy 
Your hostility, it grows so easily 
You're the next victim of the dance that broke my jaw 
Please don't get near 
You're the next victim of the dance that broke my jaw 
Have some more beer, No Fear Gear is what you wear 
Just because the music begins 
Does not always mean a wrestling scene from WWF 
Breaks out right to my left 
And I got a ringside ticket 
I'll challenge you or anyone anywhere 
Sometimes I just want the football thrown in 
Let the football game begin 
And then say to myself as I think of someone else 
That's not what we came here for, we'll take no more 
What's going through your head? 
To the point that someone is dead 
Keep it up and you're out of here, you're out of here 
And when you're outside by yourself and sitting all alone 
Keep your head down 
Cause we're the ones that warned you 
You're the next victim of the dance that broke my jaw 
Please don't get near 
You're the next victim of the dance that broke my jaw 
Can't we just be friends in here? 
Go drink some more beer 
Kick your neighbor's rear 
Elbow to my ear 
Can't we just be friends in here? 
I was dancing by myself, and bothering no one else 
When suddenly I was encountered by the beast 
I ask so politely, please just let me be 
But the next thing I remember, I'm staring at the ceiling 
Someone please, help me call security 
Was on my feet, but now I'm on the floor 
That shithead doesn't show respect to me or to you 
So now he's out the door 
Not gonna hurt us anymore 
That dance floor is free of hostility 
And I'm so glad he's gone 
It's our turn to have fun 
My message was clear, We're all friends in here 
But we're not allowed to do the dance that broke my jaw
