Shall we dance?
|
Or maybe just limp around?
|
These feet are cold and beat, and strangers
|
to the ground.
|
|
the sound of the kick is arousing.
|
the couples are sweet in their love.
|
Tonight, we'll stagger up from the basement
|
or fall to our deaths from above.
|
You've got those moves and those eyes
|
I've got these shakes and bad breath.
|
|
I've never tried that, but I know
|
I don't like it.
|
Or, maybe I do I'm just too weak to
|
fight it. Where are you? I hate
|
to let em see me crying.
|
|
I'm gonna zip on my party suit
|
and show y'all something:
|
there ain't no such thing as strumpin'
|
for nothing
|
you can fly with us or hang on to the
|
walls but the devil's takin' names
|
when the last curtain falls
|
|
I got a deep sick worry and I don't know
|
why!
|
where are you? what are you doing tonight?
|
laughing and crying are almost the same
|
they just show everyone how much
|
attention you're paying
|
so dry them eyes
|
everyone else went back inside
|
