  • People of Earth, when you dance
    Dance the Dada Polka
    Life is only a dream
    When in the mood for romance
    Dance the Dada Polka
    Be as cute as you seem

    Gyrate like a gyroscope,
    Collide like a kaleidoscope
    Freeze!
    Do something-anything-
    Do something, please

    People of Earth, don't just stand
    There, the Dada Polka
    Is as fun as it sounds
    Move hips and hands when the band
    Plays the Dada Polka
    You may lose a few pounds

    Gyrate like a gyroscope,
    Collide like a kaleidoscope
    Change!
    Do something-anything-
    Do something strange

    People of Mars, you too must
    Do the Dada Polka
    It's the meaning of life
    Fill any partner with lust?
    Do the Dada Polka
    Soon there'll be a new wife

    Gyrate like a gyroscope,
    Collide like a kaleidoscope, do
    Do something-anything-
    Do something blue
    Do something-anything-
    Do something a little out of
    Character, it won't kill you
    Do something-anything-
    Do something true. Writer/s: STEPHIN RAYMOND MERRITT
