DANCE MAN

DANCE MAN


look at you
you put your drink down on the table
and you stand up
i'm watching you
you like the rhythm and the beat
that keeps the band up
you go to her, she wants to
she's beautiful, she haunts you

dance man
don't you wish the music never stopped
you're doing as well as you know your
pants can
notice how you wiggle spin and hop
you're doing just perfect you know

everybody
gets a kick out of watching
you do the hustle
look at her
standing in front of you
admiring your muscle
you know a lot, she taught you
a lucky girl, she's got you

dance man
you should be awarded for your steps
you're doing as well as you know your
shoes can
don't you wish the band played 20 sets
you're doing just perfect you know

it's true you have a partner
who's more beautiful than you
and she's allowing you to
scoop her in your arms
as if you knew, you know?

suddenly
the lady you're falling in love with
has to go now
she complains
that all the music is too fast
or it's too slow now
you can't believe she's leaving
but it's true, you're grieving

dance man
go on home and wait until you're sober
you still qualify as an
advance man
call her up and ask her to come over
you still can be perfect you know

it's good you do exactly
what you really want to do
because it's true you have a prospect
who's more beautiful than you
