Lyrics

The lines marked with an asterisk (*) are only present on the HOTTEST PARTY2 cut of D.A.N.C.E., which fades out at the end when the line "The way you move is a mystery" is sung. The UNIVERSE2 cut of the song (marked with ※), the line "That's how you make it right!" is sung instead and doesn't fade out.

* ..Just easy as A.B.C
  That's how you make it right!

Do the D.A.N.C.E
Stick to the B.E.A.T
Just easy as A.B.C

Do the dance, do the dance
The way you move is a mystery
Do the dance
You're always there for music and me
Do the dance
The way you move is a mystery
Do the dance
You're always there for music and me

Do the D.A.N.C.E
1, 2, 3, 4 Fight!
Stick to the B.E.A.T
Get ready to ignite
You were such a P.Y.T
Catching all the lights
Just easy as A.B.C
※Do the dance, do the dance

Under the spotlight
Neither black nor white
It doesn't matter
Do the dance, do the dance
As strong as you might
Working day and night
Whatever happens
Do the dance, do the dance
The way you move is a mystery
Do the dance
You're always there for music and me

Song Connections / Remixes

• Dancing Stage UNIVERSE2 uses a different, slightly longer cut of D.A.N.C.E.. Unlike the HOTTEST PARTY2 version, this cut does not use a fade in or a fade out.

Trivia

• D.A.N.C.E.'s vocals were provided by the London-based Foundation for Young Musicians children's choir. Justice chose Zadek-Ewing, the youngest member, to sing the lead vocal because "having the least skill meant he'd potentially have the most style".
• D.A.N.C.E.'s lyrics make extensive references to songs by Michael Jackson, including Black or White, a cover of which appears alongside D.A.N.C.E. in DanceDanceRevolution HOTTEST PARTY2.
• D.A.N.C.E. received different graphics, its music video, and a new set of charts in Dancing Stage UNIVERSE2 to match the new cut.
  • Its music video eliminates all on-screen dancers.
