I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, Madame with you
My heart won't let my feet do things that they should do
You know what? You're lovely
And so what? I'm lovely
But oh, what'd you do to me?
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor
When you dance, you're charming, and you're gentle
Especially when we do the Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For Heaven rest us, we're not asbestos
And that's why I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
We know that music leads the way to romance
So if I hold you in my arms
I won't dance
When you dance, you're charming, and you're gentle
Especially when we do the Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
Oh, really
For Heaven rest us, I'm not asbestos
And that's why I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
We know that music leads the way to romance
So if I hold you in my arms
I won't dance
I won't dance
I won't dance
I won't dance
I won't
Dance, dance, dance
I won't dance
Dance
