No Dancing |
Oh I know that she |
Has made a fool of him |
Like girls have done so many nights before |
Time and time again |
Life is so strange |
I don’t know why |
But somebody, somebody has to cry |
There’s gonna be no dancing when they get home |
There’s gonna be no dancing |
There’s gonna be no dancing |
There’s gonna be no dancing when they get home |
Now he’s telling her |
Every little thing he’s done |
Once he glanced at the jackets of some paperbacks |
Now he’s read every one |
He’s such a drag |
He’s not insane |
It’s just that everybody |
Has to feel his pain |
There’s gonna be no dancing when they get home |
He’s getting down on his knees |
He finds that the girl is not so easy to please |
Oh oh, after all, his nights were just a paper striptease |
She’s caught it like some disease |
If he says no dancing |
There’s gonna be no dancing |
There’s gonna be no dancing on my own |
She can’t even speak to him |
He can’t face her now |
He says «Even though I wanna shake your hand |
All I ever do is bow. |
So now you see |
How can it be. |
Why can’t you give me anythin' but sympathy?» |
There’s gonna be no dancing |
There’s gonna be no dancing |
There’s gonna be no dancing |
There’s gonna be no dancing |
There’s gonna be no dancing on my own |
