This is the official audio of Sophie Ellis-Bextor's song "Murder on the Dancefloor", from the single "Murder on the Dancefloor", and her album "Read My Lips". This song resurged in popularity in late 2023 following its appearance in the film "Saltburn", 22 years after its original release. It also led to the song resurging in popularity on TikTok and other social media platforms prior to the TikTok-Universal Music Group dispute, with a dance challenge, in which users recreated the dance to the song featured in the movie.

Lyrics:

[Intro]
(Murder, murder, murder…)
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not kill the groove
DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down

[Verse 1]
Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
About your kind
And so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so
I'll have to play

[Pre-Chorus]
If you think you're getting away, I will prove you wrong
I'll take you all the way, boy, just come along
Hear me when I say, hey

[Chorus]
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not kill the groove, hey-hey, hey-hey
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not steal the moves
DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down

[Verse 2]
Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know there may be others
And so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so, and so
You'll just have to pray

[Pre-Chorus]
If you think you're getting away, I will prove you wrong
I'll take you all the way, stay another song
I'll blow you all away, hey

[Chorus]
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not kill the groove, hey-hey, hey-hey
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not steal the moves
DJ, gonna turn this house around somehow
Murder on the dancefloor (On the dancefloor)
But you better not kill the groove, hey-hey, hey-hey
It's murder on the dancefloor (On the dancefloor)
But you better not steal the moves
DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't think you'll get away, I will prove you wrong
I'll take you all the way, boy, just come along
Hear me when I say, hey

[Chorus]
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not kill the groove
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not steal the moves
DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not kill the groove, hey-hey, hey-hey
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not steal the moves
DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down
It's murder on the dancefloor (On the dancefloor)
But you better not kill the groove, hey-hey, hey-hey
It's murder on the dancefloor (On the dancefloor)
But you better not steal the moves
DJ, gonna burn this goddamn house right down
Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know (On the dancefloor)
But you better not kill the groove
