Lyrics

DanceDanceRevolution Cut

Fle-fle-fle-fle-flex

You've gone too far this time
But I'm dancing on the valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around
With my chances on the dangerline
I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand oh-whoa
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand oh-whoa

Why don't you use it
Try not to bruise it
Buy time don't lose it

Why... why...
Why don't you use it

The reflex is a lonely child
Just waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding
A treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover
Isn't that bizarre
Every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark

Cha-la-la-la

The reflex...

You've gone too far this time
But I'm dancing on the Valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around
With my chances on the danger line

I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand, oh woah
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand, oh woah

Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it

Oh, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it

The reflex is an only child, who's waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, isn't that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark...
