Think of what you're losing by constantly refusing to dance with me |
|
You'd be the idol of France with me |
|
And yet you stand there and shake your foolish head dramatically |
|
While I wait here so ecstatically, you just look and say emphatically |
|
Not this season, yes, that's the reason |
|
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 they should do, yes |
|
You know what, you're lovely |
|
So what, you're still lovely |
|
But oh, what you do to me |
|
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore |
|
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor |
|
Yes, when you dance you're charming and you're gentle |
|
Especially when you do the Continental |
|
But this feelin' isn't purely mental |
|
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 |
|
I know that music leads the way to romance |
|
So if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance |
|
I won't dance, don't ask me |
|
I won't dance, don't ask me |
|
I won't dance, monsieur, with you |
|
My heart won't let my feet do things they should do |
|
You know what, you're handsome |
|
And so what, you're handsome |
|
But oh, what 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 you do the Continental |
|
But this feeling isn't purely mental |
|
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 |
|
I know that music leads the way to romance |
|
So if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance |
|
Yes, I won't dance, don't ask me |
|
I won't dance, don't ask me |
|
I will not dance, madame, with you |
|
Yes, my heart won't let my feet do things they should do |
|
Yeah, you know what, you're kinda lovely |
|
And so what, I'm lovely |
|
But oh, what you do to me |
|
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shores |
|
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor |
|
When you dance you're charming and you're gentle |
|
Especially when you do the Continental |
|
But this feelin' isn't purely mental |
|
For heaven rest us, I'm not asbestos, honey, oh, oh yes |
|
And that's why |
|
I won't dance, why should I? |
|
I won't dance, how could I? |
|
I won't dance, merci beaucoup |
|
I know that music leads the way to romance |
|
So if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance |
