    All She Wants to do is Dance!

    They’re picking up the dictionaries,
    Protestors, burning them in a pile,
    And all she wants to do is dance, dance!
    Censors defining reality since I don't know when,
    And all she wants to do is dance!
    Molotov cocktails, the local drink,
    And all she wants to do is dance, dance!
    They mix 'em up right, in the kitchen sink,
    And all she wants to do is dance!
    Crazy people walkin' round,
    With blood in their eyes,
    And all she wants to do is dance, dance, dance!
    Wild-eyed constitution wavers, who ain't afraid to die,
    And all she wants to do is, all she wants to do is dance!
    And make romance...
    She can't feel the heat,
    Comin' off the street……
    She wants to party, Ooooh!
    She wants to get down, Ooooh!
    All she wants to do is, all she wants to do is dance!
    Well the government bugged the men's room,
    In the legal library downtown,
    And all she wants to do is dance, dance!
    To keep the boys from spreading,
    All the fake news they can scrounge,
    And all she wants to do is dance!
    Yeah, but that don't keep the blockchain,
    From makin' a buck or two...
    And all she wants to do is dance, dance!
    They can still sell the Russians all the fake news they can use,
    And, all she wants to do is, all she wants to do is dance!
    And make romance...
    Well we barely make the airport, for the last plane out...
    As we taxied down the runway, I could hear the people shout,
    They said, "don't come back here Yankee", but if I ever do,
    I'll bring more lawyers, ‘cause all she wants to do is dance!
    And make romance, never mind the heat, comin' off the street!
    She wants to party, Ooooh! She wants to get down, Ooooh!
    All she wants to do is, all she wants to do is dance! And make romance.
    (Don Henley)

    Another great minimalistic song I can use most of the lyrics for what I need.
