“Feet, don't fail me now!” is an old expression that's usually said when someone is running away from peril- they do not want to slow down so that they will be trapped or caught, and are self-encouraging themselves to keep going. In the song, it's used more as an excuse to keep dancing and not get tired.

Certain death is imminent. Doom is nearby. Taken from Condoleeza Rice's account of a feared biological poisoning that took place during George W. Bush's presidency. While waiting for test results she was told by an assistant "if the mice are feetup" (meaning the mice lying on their backs dead) then they would soon be dead themselves. If the mice were feet down (meaning the mice were up and walking about), then they would live.

"Musket Feet" derived from a style of snowboard pants. It is known when the lower cut of the pants (normally tighter pants), opens up more than the rest of the pant, much like Bell-Bottoms. The shape of the bottom of the pants creates a 'Musket-like' look to them. Muskets...like the gun.
