Lyrics for Dancing Shoes

Get on your dancing shoes There's one thing on your mind Hoping they're looking for you Sure you'll be rummaging through Oh and the shit, shock, horror You've seen your future bride Yeah, but it's oh so absurd For you to say the first word so you're waiting and waiting and The only reason that you came So what you scared for? Well, don't you always do the same? It's what you there for, don't you know? The lights are flashing Down in here tonight And some might exchange a glance But keep pretending to dance Don't act like it's not happening As if it's impolite To go and mention your name Instead you'll just do the same as they all do and hope for the best The only reason that you came So what you scared for? Well, don't you always do the same? It's what you're there for, but no Get on your dancing shoes You sexy little swine Hoping they're looking for you Sure you'll be rummaging through I said, the shit, shock, horror You've seen your future bride, yeah Yeah, but it's oh so absurd For you to say the first word so you're waiting and waiting
