Anarchist Dance Party
Dance to Freedom: An Anthem Against Musical Rivalry
Lyrics
Hey man, good set - but not as good as mine
Expressing appreciation for a performance but asserting personal superiority.
That's what you get for going first in line
Suggesting a consequence for being the first performer in line.
Don't you know nobody takes that spot? Don't you wanna practice in the mosh?
Advising against taking the first spot and encouraging practice in the mosh pit.
Don't you wanna warm up where nobody else can hear you? Nobody else can see you?
Encouraging warming up where one is not observed or judged by others.
Breaking vocals? 2 points off for you
Deducting points for vocal issues during the performance.
You hit that snare both too soft and too soon
Criticizing the timing and intensity of hitting the snare drum.
That's one more deduction for your time. That's where everyone will draw the line
Stating that certain actions will result in deductions and a line drawn by others.
That's where you will pack it up and head home 'till next time
Indicating the point where one should stop and go home until the next opportunity.
When you can get another chance to be king of the night
Highlighting the chance to reclaim the spotlight in the future.
And what you do you get for all your hard analysis?
Pondering the rewards of intense analysis and suggesting there are none.
Not a damn thing, cause that is not the point of this
Stating that the purpose of the endeavor is not to gain anything tangible.
Other bands are not your enemies - there is no one here you must defeat
Emphasizing that other bands are not rivals and there is no need to defeat anyone.
All that kind of toxic shit, intentional or accident will never earn a crown for anything
Rejecting toxic behavior and asserting that it won't lead to any meaningful achievement.
But why would you wanna wear one, anyways?
Raising a rhetorical question about the desirability of wearing a crown.
Even if you made it, it'd be something that you'd hate
Rejecting the idea of creating something detested, even if successful.
So fuck the king, fuck all kings, fuck the monarchy
Expressing strong opposition to kings, monarchies, and advocating for rebellion.
Let's have a musical anarchist dance party
Proposing an alternative: a chaotic, non-conformist dance party.
And we'll dance like no one's watching, cause no one will be
Suggesting carefree dancing without the fear of judgment from others.
Cause no one will be
Reiterating the idea that no one will be watching during the anarchist dance party.
Cause no one will be
Repeating the assurance that no one will be watching during the dance party.
