[Verse 1: Jung Kook, RM]
It's the thought of being young
When your heart's just like a drum
Beating louder with no way to guard it
When it all seems like it's wrong
Just sing along to Elton John
And to that feeling, we're just getting started

[Pre-Chorus: Jimin, Jin]
When the nights get colder
And the rhythms got you falling behind
Just dream about that moment
When you look yourself right in the eye, eye, eye
Then you say

[Chorus: Jung Kook, V]
I wanna dance
The music's got me going
Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah
Let's break our plans
And live just like we'rе golden
And roll in like we'rе dancing fools

[Post-Chorus: Jimin, RM, Jin]
We don't need to worry
'Cause when we fall, we know how to land
Don't need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight
'Cause we don't need permission to dance

[Verse 2: j-hope, SUGA, Jung Kook]
There's always something that's standing in the way
But if you don't let it faze ya
You'll know just how to break
Just keep the right vibe, yeah
'Cause there's no looking back
There ain't no one to prove
We don't got this on lock (Yeah)

[Pre-Chorus: V, Jung Kook, Jimin]
The wait is over
The time is now so let's do it right, mm (Yeah)
Yeah, we'll keep going
And stay up until we see the sunri-i-ise (Yeah)
And we'll say

[Chorus: V, Jin]
I wanna dance
The music's got me going
Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah
Let's break our plans
And live just like we're golden
And roll in like we're dancing fools

[Post-Chorus: Jung Kook, j-hope, Jimin]
We don't need to worry
'Cause when we fall, we know how to land
Don't need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight
'Cause we don't need permission to dance

[Refrain: Jin, Jung Kook]
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
No, we don't need permission to dance
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na (Hey)
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na

[Bridge: Jimin, V]
Well, let me show ya
That we can keep the fire alive, mm
'Cause it's not over
'Til it's over, say it one more time
Say

[Chorus: Jung Kook, Jimin]
I wanna dance
The music's got me going (Music's got me going)
Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah (Hey, yeah)
Let's break our plans
And live just like we're golden (Ooh)
And roll in like we're dancing fools (Like we're dancing fools)

[Post-Chorus: Jin, SUGA, V, Jung Kook]
We don't need to worry
'Cause when we fall, we know how to land (We know how to land)
Don't need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight (Ooh)
'Cause we don't need permission to dance

BTS is a South Korean pop (hip-hop influenced) group consisting of RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook. The group’s name is an acronym for ‘Bangtan Sonyeondan (방탄소년단)’ which translates into ‘Bulletproof Boy Scouts.’ They also uses ‘Beyond the Scene’ as the English meaning of the acronym.

BTS are heavily involved in their music production, 90 percent of their lyrics are penned by the members and some of them also act as producers.

The group combines various genres of music, ranging from pop sounds like on “I Need U,” hip-hop (“욱 (UGH!)”) or moombahton (“피 땀 눈물 (Blood Sweat & Tears)”), to British rock in “봄날 (Spring Day).” Lyrically, they lean heavily on the struggles and excitement of youth, but they also criticize social issues through songs like “뱁새 (Silver Spoon)” and “Am I Wrong,” causing them to be perceived as one of the more socially conscious k-pop artists.
