Here It Goes Lyrics
I get the feeling of a high school dance or a disco back in the 70s or 80s where circles used to form around single dancers who would show off their moves. Saturday Night Fever sure comes to mind. I picture a kid who's been trying out all his new dance moves in his room all week between work or school or whatever - and he's been waiting to become a star for those 15 minutes on the dance floor at the local club or whatever. In a much broader sense: practicing over and over again to make your debut with confidence, almost cockiness and then nailing a performance of some kind. The title of the song seems to suggest that "Here It goes".
forgot to add: Cut to the left and slide to the right could easily be references to the DJ's turn tables (change the cut you're playing on deck one and slide the crossfader to deck two).

It seems like he has finally figured out who he is, and he realizes that people who criticize him don't really matter. "Definition always changes It's not the same as yours"
He's pretty much saying that he knows that people appreciate him for who he is, and he doesnt need the approval of other people to feel good about himself.
I don't know why but I can see this song in a pub as a dance mis or in a movie where everyone is doing the same dance!!
Slight correction:
"Stand on up, everyone who can, We've got to stare on out, don't get sucked in for a second. Grownups might say your name, they only light the stage, Nothing there to prove."
awkward for you...cos the lyrics up there are correct

I LOVE this song.
This song makes me want to dance. It's so upbeat and fresh. Nothing like anything on Futures.
small correction: "Laugh, but you can't ignore" And apologies to crimsondawn but it is most definitely "Robots might say your name, they only light the stage"
It's like the main character is a kid who's always been looked down upon for being different. Then one day, he has an epiphany. He owns up to his flaws alone in his room and to the fact that life can't be perfect. He attends his first dance and he's the first one to take the stage. He doesn't do it for attention, and he just begins to move oblivous to what people may think of him or his dance moves. It's like that moment Dane Cook said guys will never do... "I just wanna dance!" He wants to dance and he'll let the "cool kids" fight over the accolades all he wants is to express himself the only way he knows how... by rocking the shit out of that dance floor.
That's how I feel anyway. Amazing song. And such a welcome departure from the JEW norm. It makes me want to throw concern and caution to the wind and move. Great album as well.
I agree with davidprevails. This song makes me wanna dance so much! And I can definitely imagine a choreographed group dance to this. it's just calling for it. This is an awesome song on an awesome album!
oh, and it's "It's not perfection yet. How boring if it is." makes more sense than a random interjection. Thought that does happen a lot in music...
Probably my favorite song on the new album. So much fun.
