Dance can go badly (5)
I believe the answer is:
conga
'dance' is the definition.
(I know that conga is a more specific form of the action dance)
'can go badly' is the wordplay.
'badly' indicates an anagram.
'can'+'go'='cango'
'cango' anagrammed gives 'CONGA'.
(Other definitions for conga that I've seen before include "wiggling line" , "Serpentine dance" , "Single-file dance" , "Circuitous line dance" , "What gets line moving rhythmically" .)
