Lyrics for Do The Standing Still

Oh whoa-oh, well the Pony was funky The Watusi was kinda smooth Oh whoa-oh, well the problem with all Those little dance steps was you had to move Oh whoa-oh, well I got a brand new step And it doesn't take anything to get this groove, uh-huh! Yeah they're doing the standing still Yeah they're doing the standing still And they're doing the standing still Yeah they're doing the standing still, hey! Oh whoa-oh, well it's a sensation Across the entire nation. Oh whoa-oh, a hundred million kids All dancing in suspended animation, hmm Oh whoa-oh, and the feeling's all right We'll be standing still until the morning light, yeah! And they're doing the standing still Yeah they're doing the standing still Yeah they're doing the standing still Yeah they're doing the standing still, hey! I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed Oh, my aching head. Uh-huh! Oh whoa-oh, in Fargo, six or seven kids Watched the Plan in a strip-mall I thought they were bored out of their skulls But it turns out they were having a ball, uh-huh Oh whoa-oh, well I finally knew They were doing a brand-new step everybody isn't moving to And they're doing the standing still Yeah they're doing the standing still And they're doing the standing still Yeah they're doing the standing still, yeah!
