Lyrics and Makaton Sign Transcription:

Don't think about it (NO / THINK)
Just move your body (DANCE)
Listen to the music (LISTEN / MUSIC)
Sing, oh, ey, oh (SING)

Just move those left feet (DANCE / FEET)
Go ahead get crazy; (DANCE)
Anyone can do it (PERSON / DO)
Sing, oh, ey, oh (SING)

Show the world you've got that fire (SHOW / WORLD / CONFIDENT)
Feel the rhythm getting louder (FEEL / MUSIC / LOUD)
Show the room what you can do (SHOW / ALL / DO)
Prove to them you've got the moves (PROVE / DANCE)
I don't know about you (NO / KNOW / YOU)

But I feel better when I'm dancing, yeah, yeah (BETTER / DANCE)
Better when I'm dancing, yeah, yeah (BETTER / DANCE)
Oh, we can do this together (DANCE / TOGETHER)

And you slay that solo (DANCE / ALONE)
'Cause you listen to the music (LISTEN / MUSIC)

And you make your hips sway (DANCE)
We knew that you could do it (KNOW / DO)
