The song was written by band members and songwriters Ben Berger and Ryan McMahon. The song is based on an experience frontman Nicholas Petricca had at a Los Angeles nightclub.

Shut Up and Dance Lyrics

[00:02.97] "Oh, don't you dare look back
[00:04.91] Just keep your eyes on me"
[00:06.82] I said, "You're holding back"
[00:08.54] She said, "Shut up and dance with me"
[00:11.54] This woman is my destiny
[00:14.21] She said, "Ooh-hoo
[00:16.45] Shut up and dance with me"
[00:20.49]
[00:25.88] We were victims of the night
[00:28.73] The chemical, physical, kryptonite
[00:32.47] Helpless to the bass and faded light
[00:36.25] Oh, we were bound to get together
[00:39.09] Bound to get together
[00:41.22] She took my arm
[00:43.26] I don't know how it happened
[00:45.17] We took the floor and she said
[00:48.05] "Oh, don't you dare look back
[00:49.86] Just keep your eyes on me"
[00:51.60] I said, "You're holding back"
[00:53.57] She said, "Shut up and dance with me!"
[00:56.33] This woman is my destiny
[00:59.10] She said, "Ooh-hoo
[01:01.57] Shut up and dance with me"
[01:06.35] A backless dress and some beat up sneaks
[01:09.82] My discothèque Juliet, teenage dream
[01:13.80] I felt it in my chest as she looked at me
[01:17.25] I knew we were bound to be together
[01:20.42] Bound to be together
[01:22.47] She took my arm
[01:24.71] I don't know how it happened
[01:26.36] We took the floor and she said
[01:29.28] "Oh, don't you dare look back
[01:31.29] Just keep your eyes on me"
[01:33.07] I said, "You're holding back"
[01:34.80] She said, "Shut up and dance with me"
[01:37.53] This woman is my destiny
[01:40.41] She said, "Ooh-hoo
[01:42.71] Shut up and dance with me"
[01:47.38] Oh, come on, girl
[01:49.75]
[02:03.90] Deep in her eyes
[02:05.75] I think I see the future
[02:07.75] I realize this is my last chance
[02:11.35] She took my arm
[02:13.35] I don't know how it happened
[02:15.28] We took the floor and she said
[02:20.47]
[02:25.52] "Oh, don't you dare look back
[02:27.43] Just keep your eyes on me"
[02:29.33] I said, "You're holding back"
[02:31.19] She said, "Shut up and dance with me"
[02:33.83] This woman is my destiny
[02:36.80] She said, "Ooh-hoo
[02:38.93] Shut up and dance with me"
[02:40.83] "Don't you dare look back
[02:42.28] Just keep your eyes on me"
[02:44.27] I said, "You're holding back"
[02:46.05] She said, "Shut up and dance with me"
[02:48.99] This woman is my destiny
[02:51.73] She said, "Ooh-hoo
[02:53.97] Shut up and dance with me"
[02:59.46] Ooh-hoo
[03:01.55] Shut up and dance with me
[03:07.43] Ooh-hoo
[03:09.25] Shut up and dance with me
[03:11.45]
