Lyrics
DanceDanceRevolution HOTTEST PARTY2 Cut
...just easy as ABC 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 (Do the dance) The way you move is a mystery Do the dance (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 spotlights 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 The way you move is a mystery...

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 PARTY 2.
- D.A.N.C.E. received different graphics, its promotional video and a new set of charts in Dancing Stage UNIVERSE2, to match the new cut.
