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

You know what you're so lovely

And 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

Specially when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't purely mental

For Heaven rest us I am 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

When I like the way you do the continental

And this feeling isn't purely mental

For Heaven rest us I am 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
