Burning Diplomats Video (MV)

[Verse 1]
Dancing in the middle of the floor
While the world's burning next door
Playing both sides like a game
Selling steel and taking no blame
In my pressed suit, I smile and wave
While others dig an early grave

[Chorus]
Dance the diplomatic way
Say nothing, that's what we say
Shake hands with devils and saints
Keep the money flowing, no restraints
Oh, sweet neutrality
What a perfect way to be
(So perfectly free)

[Verse 2]
Summit meetings in five-star hotels
While the bombs drop and sirens yell
Sign the papers, drink champagne
Watch the profits rise again
Peace and love we advocate
While counting money at the gate

[Bridge]
In the north we stay so cool
Playing everyone for a fool
Our conscience clean as winter snow
While blood money makes us grow
But hey, let's dance some more
That's what this party's for

[Chorus]
Dance the diplomatic way
Say nothing, that's what we say
Shake hands with devils and saints
Keep the money flowing, no restraints
Oh, sweet neutrality
What a perfect way to be
(So perfectly free)

[Outro]
Round and round the dance floor spins
Nobody loses, nobody wins
Just keep smiling, play it smart
While the world falls apart
That's the Swedish way to be
Profitable neutrality
(Let's dance till we're free)
