[Verse 1]
N.C. A#
Trying so hard to keep up with the Joneses
N.C. A#
Running a rat race won by our noses
N.C. A#
Always put one foot in front of the other

And dance to the beat of the decadent drummer
[Pre-Chorus]
F G
Just buy a brand new pair of Fred Astaire shoes
D# D#5 D5 C5
Climbing to the top, ne - ver gonna stop

It's the same old song and one two three and dec - a - dance

It's hard to stop once the music gets started
N.C. A#
'til the soles of your feet harden up like your heart did

Stepping in line with the sign of the ti - mer
