Lyrics
[Verse 1] In a world of sin and saints, I’ll paint my life with no restraints. Who needs a sky full of gods above, When you’ve got jazz, and a bit of love? [Chorus] Spin the atheist tango, twirl on the floor, Who needs heaven? I’ve opened the door. To a cabaret paradise, right here on earth, A dance of delight, a bohemian rebirth. [Verse 2] Existential cocktails, shake ‘em with flair, Sartre’s in the corner, despair in the air. But I’m dancing with reason, a jive with fate, To the blues of existence, no divine debate. [Chorus] Spin the atheist tango, sway with your soul, We’re more than dust; we’re whole in the hole. In a cabaret carnival, we’ll spin and we’ll shout, With each step forward, we’ll figure it out. [Bridge] In this cosmic cabaret, who knows what’s true? It’s all up for grabs, for me and for you. So let’s drink to the chaos, the joy, and the pain, With a wink to the cosmos, and a nod to the rain. [Chorus] Spin the atheist tango, dance with the stars, Who needs a god when the music’s this far? In the cabaret cosmos, we’re all divine, Singing the blues with a twist of the spine. [Outro] So lift up your (gl)asses, and toast to the night, To the atheist tango, and the quest for the light. With a cheeky grin and a jazz-infused soul, We’ll dance our own path, and we’ll make it whole.
