+====== Dance Like It Matters ======
+by Jeff Bigler (2012)
+//Dance like it matters
+And dance like you care
+Make the tune come alve
+As you float through the air
+With each shake of your bells
+And each clash, adding flair
+Bring the Morris to life when you dance//
+The dancers arrive and start milling about
+And they stand in the front keeping spectators out
+"From the village of Somethington..." One of them shouts
+But the Morris is much more than this...
+//[Chorus]//
+As each side struts their stuff with a fancy new dance
+Full of leaping and tossing and shouts to enhance
+Other teams socialize and give scarcely a glance
+But the Morris is much more than this...
+//[Chorus]//
+And the audience doesn't know what they've just seen
+Where the dances all come from and what they might mean
+Or the copious "in" jokes, some clean, some obscene
+But the Morris is much more than this...
+//[Chorus]//
+Then they go to a pub for a pint and a song
+And they sing it off key and get half the words wrong
+With the same tired hacks that just don't quite belong
+But the Morris is much more than this...
+//[Chorus]//
