(Murder, murder, murder…)

It's murder on the dancefloor

But you better not kill the groove

DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down

[Verse 1]

Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

About your kind

And so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so

I'll have to play

[Pre-Chorus]

If you think you're getting away, I will prove you wrong

I'll take you all the way, boy, just come along

Hear me when I say, hey

[Chorus]

It's murder on the dancefloor

But you better not kill the groove, hey-hey, hey-hey

It's murder on the dancefloor

But you better not steal the moves

DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down

[Verse 2]

Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

I know there may be others

You'll just have to pray

[Pre-Chorus]

If you think you're getting away, I will prove you wrong

I'll take you all the way, stay another song

I'll blow you all away, hey

[Chorus]

It's murder on the dancefloor

But you better not kill the groove, hey-hey, hey-hey

It's murder on the dancefloor

But you better not steal the moves

DJ, gonna turn this house around somehow

Murder on the dancefloor (On the dancefloor)

But you better not kill the groove, hey-hey, hey-hey

It's murder on the dancefloor (On the dancefloor)

But you better not steal the moves

DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't think you'll get away, I will prove you wrong

I'll take you all the way, boy, just come along

Hear me when I say, hey

[Chorus]

It's murder on the dancefloor

But you better not kill the groove

It's murder on the dancefloor

But you better not steal the moves

DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down

It's murder on the dancefloor

But you better not kill the groove, hey-hey, hey-hey

It's murder on the dancefloor

But you better not steal the moves

DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down

It's murder on the dancefloor (On the dancefloor)

But you better not kill the groove, hey-hey, hey-hey

It's murder on the dancefloor (On the dancefloor)

But you better not steal the moves

DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down

Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know (On the dancefloor)

But you better not kill the groove
