I Won't Dance

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 dramatically

While I wait here so ecstatically

You just look and say emphatically

Not this season

Yes, there's a reason I won't dance

Don't ask me

I won't dance

Don't ask me

I won't dance, Madam, with you

My heart won't let my feet do things they should do

Yes, you know what?

You lovely, so what?

You still lovely

But what you do to me, I'm like an ocean wave that swamps on the shore

I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor

Yes, when you dance, you're charming and you're gentle

Especially when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't

Truly, man, love for heaven rests 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

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance

I won't dance

Don't ask me

I won't dance

Don't ask me

I won't dance still with you

My heart won't let my feet do things they should do

You know what? You're handsome

And so what? You're handsome

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

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 I won't dance

Why should I? I won't dance, how could I? I won't dance

Mercie beaucoup

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms

I won't dance

Yes, I won't dance

Don't ask me

I won't dance

Don't ask me

I will not dance, madam, with you

Yes, my heart won't let my feet do things they should do

Yeah, you know what I mean

You kinda lovely

And so what? I'm lovely

But oh, what you do to me

I'm like an ocean wave that's coming on the shores

I feel so absolutely stumbled on the floor

When you dance you're charming and you're gentle

Especially when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't elemental, for heaven rest us

I'm not as fast as honey

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
