great time on stage

Sometimes you can just tell
they're having a great time up there, 
onstage 
it's not faked. You can't  

fake strutting and bopping around
like that, yelling "ooo! ooo!" and 

doing this sort of - anti-choreography! 

Everyone's got their own dance going,
but 
you figure they planned it. It smacks 
of something planned, and maybe
actually rehearsed - or run through
a time or two, perhaps not identically.
It smacks
of artificiality,
but they're really
getting into it. You

know?
They're having a ball, a blast
up there 

and we 
uh 
paid 

to see this shit.
But that's okay. It's joyous
affirmation of some kind
of human confidence 
job

and if we didn't come to see 
that? Well, we certainly came 
to see this
