While you rumba and you samba
To the party propaganda melody
A multi million dollar corporation
Starts to collar your destiny
Who is in control of your body and your soul
When you dance with me?
Everybody in here has lived inside
A frontier like a refugee
All along the border
They're searching for you -
Just like an immigrant
In your country, too
Reduplication, reincarnation
Let's do the variation, unite-unite your nation
Fa-fa-fa! Fa-fa-fa! Fa-fa-fa!
Diplomats and bureaucrats are
Busy speculating a conspiracy
Administrating, calculating
Arbitrating everybody's history
From Hong Kong to Ecuador
The dance is a battle for equality
Disco is the rock-and-roll-
Blues-jazz-country-soul-recipe
All along the border
They're searching for you -
What will you say
When they're interrogating you?
Reduplication, reincarnation
Let's do the variation, unite-unite your nation
Fa-fa-fa! Fa-fa-fa! Fa-fa-fa!
Now watch your parking meters
And don't follow leaders into bankruptcy
All of the green soldiers are under marching orders
For the tourists to see
This is not a fashion show -
We are the red commando, Don't desert me
You can do the left and right
When we go and dance all night to victory
All along the border
They're searching me and you
Total entertainment;
Red, yellow, white, and blue!
Reduplication, reincarnation
Let's do the variation, unite-unite your nation
Reduplication, reincarnation
Let's do the variation, unite-unite your nation
Reduplication, reincarnation
Let's do the variation, unite-unite your nation
Reduplication, reincarnation
Let's do the variation, unite-unite your nation
Reduplication, reincarnation
Let's do the variation, unite-unite your nation
Reduplication, reincarnation
Let's do the variation, unite-unite your nation
