Are we human - or are we dancers?

[PuppyMonkey]

What does that mean then?

dancer, singular
havent a clue, but i think its my least favorite killers track ever

Oh i heard him talking about this on the radio although I can't actually remember what he said

I do remember thinking "Ah you wanker" though...

My dp keeps singing this constantly

denser would make more sense

In full:

I did my best to notice
When the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender
I was brought but I was kind
And sometimes get nervous
When I see an open door
Close your eyes
Clear your heart

Cut the cord
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?

Pay my respects to grace and virtue
Send my condolences to good
Give my regards to soul and romance
They always did the best they could
And so long to devotion
You taught me everything I know
Wave goodbye
Wish me well

You got to let me go
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answers
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?

Will your system be alright
When you dream of home tonight?
There is no message we're receiving
Let me know is your heart still beating?

Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer

You got to let me know
Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we Human
Or are we Dancer?

Are we Human?
Or are we Dancer?

Are we Human
Or are we Dancer?

Que?

I hated this at first, but after seeing it done live on Jools Holland, it's growing on me.

Still not as good as every other Killers track ever, though.

Off to see them in March

i know this, hang on i'll find a link

Oh, now, it's some wanky quote from someone else about the US being a nation of dancers or summat.
Shite lyrics adn nowhere near as good as othe Killers tracks.
I'm bitter about not getting tickets though...

Something to do with Hunter S Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas?

Or something?

it's a literary thing

Literary, yeah. Or wanky, as I said.

He says the lyrics were inspired by a disparaging comment made by Hunter S. Thompson about how America was raising a generation of dancers.

You see, I'm glad I asked now...

I love that song

When I first heard this I thought it was Chris de Burgh. It's that shit.

at Chris De Burgh... you have a point, I think.

I really like it Not for the lyrics, just "it" iyswim.

Still nothing is topping Long Live the Queen for me atm

i like it

but then i like the killers in a like everything kind of way

Wasn't Dancer one of Santa's reindeer?
