Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 cuttin' up and carrying on, you wear them gowns
So how come I feel so lonely when you're up gettin' down?
[PreChorus]
So I'll play along when I hear that special song
I'm gonna be the one who gets it right
You'd better move when you're swayin' 'round the room
Looks like the magic's only ours tonight
[Chorus]
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'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
[Chorus]
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?
[Chorus]
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Rather be home with the one in the bed till dawn, with you
[Verse 2]
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 colors, make a blind man so confused
Then why can't I keep up when you're the only thing I lose?
[PreChorus]
So I'll just pretend that I know which way to bend
And 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
[Chorus]
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'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
[Chorus]
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?
[Chorus]
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
I'd rather be home with the one in the bed till dawn, with you
[Bridge]
You can't make me dance around
But your two-step makes my chest pound
Just lay me down as you float away into the shimmer light
[Chorus]
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'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
[Chorus]
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?
[Chorus]
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
I'd rather be home with the one in the bed till dawn, with you
[Chorus]
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?
[Chorus]
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
I'd rather be home with the one in the bed till dawn, with you
