What 70s or 80s song was this?

Being only 15...i wasn't alive back then so i ask you veterans what is this song? It goes like this... "You can dance if you want to, you can dance if youre a friend. If you cant dance and you dont dance then youre no friend of mine..." or at least i think thats how it goes....i saw a commercial with all these greatest hits. The catchy chrorus is stuck in my head and i want to know what it is!!!

    "Safety Dance" Lyrics

    S-s-s-s A-a-a-a F-f-f-f E-e-e-e T-t-t-t Y-y-y-y

    Safe, dance!

    [Spoken]

    We can dance if we want to

    We can leave your friends behind

    'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance

    Well they're no friends of mine

    I say, we can go where we want to

    A place where they will never find

    And we can act like we come from out of this world

    Leave the real one far behind

    And we can dance

    [Sung]

    We can dance if we want to

    We can leave your friends behind

    'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance

    Well they're no friends of mine

    I say, we can go where we want to

    A place where they will never find

    And we can act like we come from out of this world

    Leave the real one far behind

    And we can dance

    Danc¨¦e!

    We can go when we want to

    The night is young and so am I

    And we can dress real neat from our hats to our feet

    And surprise 'em with the victory cry

    Say, we can act if want to

    If we don't nobody will

    And you can act real rude and totally removed

    And I can act like an imbecile

    [Refrain]

    I say, we can dance, we can dance

    Everything out of control

    We can dance, we can dance

    We're doing it from wall to wall

    We can dance, we can dance

    Everybody look at your hands

    We can dance, we can dance

    Everybody takin' the cha-a-a-ance

    Safety dance

    Is it safe to dance

    Is it safe to dance

    S-s-s-s A-a-a-a F-f-f-f E-e-e-e T-t-t-t Y-y-y-y

    Safe, dance!

    We can dance if we want to

    We've got all your life and mine

    As long as we abuse it, never gonna lose it

    Everything'll work out right

    I say, we can dance if we want to

    We can leave your friends behind

    'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance

    Well they're no friends of mine

    [Refrain]

    Is it safe to dance, oh is it safe to dance [6x]

    Is it safe to dance
