I Won’t Dance

[Intro]
Not this season, there's a reason
Think of what you're losing by constantly refusing to dance with me
You'd be the idol of France with me
And yet you stand there
And shake your foolish head rheumatically
While I wait here so ecstatically
You just sight and say emphatically
"Not this season, there's a reason"

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
You know what? You're lovely
Oh, so lovely
But, 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

[Bridge]
When you dance you're charming and you're gentle
Especially when you do The Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For heaven rest us, I'm not asbestos
And that's why

[Verse 3]
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

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
When you dance you're charming and you're gentle
Especially when you do The Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For heaven rest us, I'm not asbestos
That's why

[Verse 3]
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
I know that music leads the way to romance
So, if I hold you in my arms

[Outro]
Hold you in my arms
Hold you in my arms, I won't dance
I won't dance
