Well the hobo's watch stopped
at five o'clock I feel I'll never find him
Oh Dear John where are you
I know you're out there somewhere
Well I got a hurricane in my pocket
though no one will believe me
They poured a bucket of tar
on top of a flower somehow
I knew they'd try it
To deny it and defy it and to buy it
Well let's go dancing
Let's go dancing
Said the firefly to the hurricane
Said the pouring rain to the open plain
How many times
Well I stopped a freight train
with a grain of sand
can you hear it crashing
I split a mountain in two
with a flake of snow still
they won't believe me
Well the tales were tall the stories
were old yet somehow
I believed them
So what do you know about revolution
When all you've taught is patience
And waiting and making a statement
Well let's go dancing
Let's go dancing
Said the firefly to the hurricane
Said the open plain to the falling rain
How many times
Oh let's go dancing
Let's go dancing
Let's go dancing
Let's go dancing
How many times
