about

This was supposed to be our big Christmas single, with choirs, bells, synths, dancers, etc., but everything went horribly wrong....

So we're releasing this tarted up demo version instead. This is a charity single, so please pay as much or as little as you can afford. Every penny will be donated to grassroots anti-austerity charities. Better still, if you'd rather donate direct to the charity of your choice do that and download the song for free. We trust you.

lyrics

Dance for Christmas

I don’t need a lot for xmas, I just wanna dance

I don’t need no cardigans or smellies or new vans
Leave my stocking empty i’ve been making other plans
Nothing you can buy me beats the rhythm of this dance
Party round the xmas tree I'm grooving in my pants

Chorus
I just wanna dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna sing and dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna sing and dance for xmas

Santa’s on the brandy and he’s done his thousandth glass
Rudolph and the other reindeer never stood a chance
The elf has fallen off his shelf, he’s tweaking off his ass
Never mind the butterballs, i'm in a festive trance

Chorus
I just wanna dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna sing and dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna sing and dance for xmas

"Hello young person, what o you want for Christmas?"
"Ho ho ho"
"Santa...I'd like"

Ooh, wanna
Dance, wanna
Dance, wanna
Dance,

Chorus
I just wanna dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna sing and dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna dance
I just wanna sing and dance for xmas
