I LOVE this song, and I thank all of you for giving me the last of the lyrics.

And it's a dream come true. For months, I've been looking for the lyrics to Dance Dance Dance!! I have a CD and it's one of the songs (it was an honor choir song) and I LOVE singing along with it, but until now...I didn't have to words!!

So thank you, everyone. =D

I'm learning this in choir at the moment. I can spell rythm and neighbour correctly. (please forgive me if this is a North American Site). Here they are:

THE RYTHM OF LIFE 2007

When I started down the street last Sunday
feeling mighty low and kind of mean
Suddenly a voice said go forth neighbour
spread the picture on a wider screen
And the voice said neighbour there's a million reasons
why you should be glad in all four seasons
Hit the road neighbour leave your worries and strife
Spread the religion of the rhythm of life

Chorus
For the rhythm of life is a powerful beat
Puts a tingle in your fingers and a tingle in your feet
rhythm on the inside rhythm in the street
and the rhythm of life is a powerful beat
                To feel the rhythm of life
                To feel the powerful beat
                To feel the tingle in your fingers
                To feel the tingle in your feet (2x)

Verse 2
Go and spread the gospel in Milwaukee
Take a walkie - talkie to Rocky Ridge
All the way to Canton then to Scranton
even tell it under the Manhattan bridge
Bridge
(Fast 3x)
You will make a new sensation
have a growing congregation
build a glowing operation
here below
Like a pied piper blowing
Lead and keep the music flowing
Keep the rhythm go go going, go go go

Doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, do-bi
Doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, do-bi
Doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, do-bi
Doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, doobi, do
(2x)

Flip your wings and fly up high
Flip your wings and fly up high
Flip your wings and fly up high,
Fly, fly, fly up high

You can do it if you try
You can do it if you try
You can do it if you try
Try, try, try to fly

Like a bird up in the sky
Like a bird up in the sky
Like a bird up in the sky
Fly, fly, fly up high

Chorus 3x
For the rhythm of life is a powerful beat
Puts a tingle in your fingers and a tingle in your feet
rhythm on the inside rhythm in the street
and the rhythm of life is a powerful beat

PS it was the guinness revolution advert that had this theme tune.

our choir sang that version in a competition about a month ago. You won't have heard of us we are an english school choir. We sing mainly gospel music 'Halleluja' but we do sing a lot of other stuff. Unfortunately our condctor has bought a high school musical medly which we are going to learn after our next comp., a week on friday!!!
We sang 'Adiemus' aswell but 'Rhythmn of Life' is my favourite by far.

Snap! When I was with Cantorion Creigiau (the mixed choir from the village of Creigiau, about eight miles north-west of Cardiff) we sang The Rhythym Of Life and Adiemus as well. The Rhythm Of Life really boiled my kettle, but our own local favourite was Adiemus, by the visionary composer Karl Jenkins, an ex-pupil of Gowerton Comprehensive School in the same county.

I love Karl's compositions, including the piece he was commissioned to write for the opening of the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff Bay. His work has been recorded for several CDs.

Here is the version from choir perspective that I used to sing 10 years ago:

For the rhythm of life is a powerful beat

Rhythm on the inside, rhythm on the street, and the rhythm of life is a powerful beat!

To feel the rhythm of life, to feel the powerful beat,
To feel the tingle in your fingers, to feel the tingle in your feet!

Just done it in concert three times in the last two weekends, We have been doing it that long now I know the whole thing without music.
We sing almost exactly what is stated in the last posting above, except third line is "spread" not speed and the odd sp. We also Canadianize the towns, "Go and spread the gospel in Vancouver, take a walkie talkie to Calgary, all the way yo Kingston then to Moncton, even shout it lodly from sea to sea"

I sang this song too, in my performing choir in Melbourned Australia about 15 years ago.

I too didnt know it was from Sweet Charity until today and I like the choir version better than the original too.

We had a more complex version of this again. It had more parts repeated and was quite long. It also had 5 different groups singing at once. I can't believe that after being so heavily involved in the choir for 3-4 years, performing overseas, training to almost military regimes during 'camps' which were really 14 hours per day of training (which I dreaded) I have forgotten so much!!!. I can't even remember what the 'parts' are called when you talk about each 'group' singing a different line from the sheet music and also what these 'groups' are called. I know I was one of the 2 soprano groups. I read the second top line of music which was equally as high pitched as the other soprano group. There was another line for the some pitch I can't remember and one line for altos. Being 5 lines all up. I also can't remember if alto is the lowest pitch for young girls and whether the other 'group' which I can't remember the name of is higher or lower than altos. How sad am I LOL

The sheet music for the choral version is readily available at places like Sheet Music Plus - or download form Sheet Music Direct. My only experience with the song is seeing it in the movie Sweet Charity, where it sounds intentionally corny and stupid. I think of this as a novelty comedy piece, and can't imagine it as a choral performance.

There must be something to it, though - this thread has been kept alive forever by people who really seem to love the song.

Spread your picture on a wider screen
And the voice said theres a million reasons
Why you should be glad in all four seasons
Hit the road neighbor leave your worries and strife
Spread the religion of the rythym of life!

For the rythym of life is a pwerful beat
Puts a tingle in your finger and a tingle in your feet
Rythym on the inside rythym in you feet

I sang this song in Choral in 1985! We had five parts, 2 soprano, alto, tenor, and bass. I was a great song and a great Choral! Go Mr. Rogers!! It was the whole version doobi dos and everything.

were singing it in choir right now and it goes like this:

i was walking down the street last sunday
feeling mighty low and kind of mean
suddenly a voice said go forth neighbor
spread the picture on a wider screen
then the voice said neighbor theres a million reasons
why you should be glad in all four seasons
hit the road neighbor leave your worries and your strife
spread the religion of the rhythm of life

ALL:
for the rhythm of life is a powerful beat
puts a tingle in your fingers and a tingle in your feet
rhythm on the inside rhythm on the street
and the rhythm of life is a powerful beat
ALTOS REPEAT X2
MEN REPEAT

SOPRANOS:
to feel the rhythm of life
to feel the powerful beat
to feel the tingle in your fingers
to feel the tingle in your feet
REPEAT

MEN:
Go, go go
Go, go go
Tell them everything you know

-and thats everything that we have practiced so far(:
