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 you know what?
You're lovely and so what?
I'm lovely but, oh
What'd 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 we do the continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For heaven rest us we're 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

You know that music leads the way to romance
So if I hold you in my arms i won't dance

When you dance you're charming
And you're gentle
Especially when we do the continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
(Oh really?) 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

We'll know that music leads
The way to romance
So if I hold you in my arms

I won't dance i won't dance
I won't dance i won't dance
I won't dance, dance, dance! I won't dance!
Dance
