She said that love was the answer to it all
And I'm sure she's right but ya much rather first learn to fall before you crawl
And I'm laughing whoa big butter belly big ol' jabber jaw
And I'm laughing because you know what time it is
I'm laughing because you know what time it is
And I'm laughing because it is time for the heartbreaking ball
I'm gonna shake it tonight, trying to ward off these home town time blues
Kevin Bacon ain't got shit on me, neither do those blue suede shoes
And I'm dancing cause I ain't got nothing else to lose
And I'm dancing because you know what time it is
I'm dancing because you know what time it is
I'm dancing because it is time for the heartbreaking ball, alright
I want you to show me the way to get inside of your Martian heart
The snake slithering stone age where the people were half as smart
I'm stuck in between strings of solitude and mardi gra
And I can't quite figure out where my head will fall
And I'm laughing because you know what time it is
I'm laughing because you know what time it is
And I'm laughing because it is time for the heartbreaking ball
