Electric Six - Dance Pattern lyrics

She says she loves these
United States of America
And the flag for which it stands
Of thee I sing she tells me she's a liar
But, I don't believe her
She tells me almost anything

Placing your bet on a horse
That never left the gate, now
You've got nothing left on your plate
But, it's better than walking around looking
For another man to subjugate
Better than wondering what it
Was she just ate, oh

Did I make a mistake when I turned it on?
Was my dance pattern right?
Was my dance pattern wrong?
Did I make a mistake when I sang this song?
Was my vox too sexy? Was my vox too strong?

Now you navigate your way
Around the treacherous terrain
Try not to step in the
Darvocet and the Novocaine
And you're stuck in the corner listening to
Some guy talk about his screenplay
And the crazy things he did
One night in Spain

My dance pattern is everything
That matters to me the blood splatters
You should see the suckas scatter
Man it really is a sight to see

Well we've seen the years go by
But it seems we've reached the
End of the line
And there ain't no happy ending
When you're constantly pretending
That the good lord ripped you out of my side

And this time there are no feelings
And it feels like there's no time
And it feels like it's time to
Let my feelings do some time
Do some time, every time
Every time I dance with you
