Janne Pahlsonn - Dancing with Consequences Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dancing in boardrooms with suits and ties
Handshakes and smiles hide profitable lies
Stockholm's so peaceful, clean and neat
While deals are made on a cobblestone street

[Chorus]
Oh, let's dance tonight
While money takes flight
Svensk kvalitet, they say with pride
But profits flow with every stride
Keep dancing, keep smiling
While the world burns outside

[Verse 2]
Coffee and cakes at Östermalm's heart
Playing our roles, we're so damn smart
Magnus got rich on a handshake deal
Now summer house dreams feel almost real

[Bridge]
The band plays on in Gröna Lund
While papers sign in the background
We toast to peace with champagne gold
But darling, everything's been sold

[Chorus]
Oh, let's dance tonight
While money takes flight
Svensk kvalitet, they say with pride
But profits flow with every stride
Keep dancing, keep smiling
While the world burns outside

[Verse 3]
Father taught me how to dance this way
"It's just business, son," I heard him say
Now in my suit at the company ball
I've learned to waltz through it all

[Outro]
One-two-three, one-two-three
Watch how gracefully we
Spin and twirl so free
In our hypocrisy
The accordion plays our alibi
While we dance until the music dies
