Wake up in the morning
with a head like ?what ya done? ’
This used to be the life
but I don’t need another one.
You like cutting up
and carrying on
you wear them gowns.
So how come I feel so lonely
when you’re up getting down?
So I’ll play along when
I hear that special song
I’m gonna be the one
who gets it right.
You better move when you’re
swinging ’round the room
Looks like magic’s only ours tonight
But I don’t feel like dancing
When the old Joanna plays
My heart could take a chance
But my two feet can’t find a way
You’d think that I could muster up
a little soft shoe, gentle sway
But I don’t feel like dancin’
No sir, no dancin’ today.
Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’
Even if i find nothin’better to do
Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’
Why’d you pick a tune
when I’m not in the mood?
Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’
I’d rather be home with the one
in the bed till dawn, with you.
Cities come and cities go
just like the old empires
When all you do is
change your clothes
and call that versatile.
You got so many colours it’d make
a blind man so confused.
Then why can’t I keep up
when you’re the only thing I’d lose?
So I’ll just pretend
that I know which way to bend
I’m gonna tell the whole world
that you’re mine.
Just please understand,
when I see you clap your hands
If you stick around
I’m sure that I’ll be fine.
But I don’t feel like dancin’
When the old Joanna plays
My heart could take a chance
But my two feet can’t find a way
You think that I could muster up
a little soft shoe gentle sway
But I don’t feel like dancin’
No sir, no dancin’ today.
Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’
Even if i find nothin’better to do
Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’
Why’d you pick a tune,
when I’m not in the mood?
Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’
Rather be home with the one
in the bed till dawn, with you
You can’t make me dance around.
But your two-step
makes my chest pound.
