Top 26 songs about EVERYTHING: 2

Johnossi - Man must dance

In 2005 the still pretty unknown duo Johnossi dropped a song that in my mind should have been a bomb. It was both happy and a kick in the face for the swedish people made of sticks. But swedish people dont really dance anymore. With a few beers inside they might jump up or down or put some make up on and listen to house or modern RNB music. Crap. I wont try to tell you how correct and beautiful this lyric is. If you dont like it, then it wasnt simply made for you. It was made for me. Thats for sure.

"You like to do it as a child on your own
you're in the jungle and the monkeys
take your mind from your home
How many times do they have to tell you
that it's perfectly fine for you to dance around
naked when you're all by yourself

Cause' you, and you, and you and you
you're just a animal developed into
You and you and you and you
a monkey needs to dance so do you

We're the people, the lucky
with the fragile bones
the ones who sit and worry
about getting to old
You're the monkey in the jungle
trying to find your place
the one who let the sunset
bring a silly kind of smile on your face"
