3OH!3 - Don't Dance lyrics

Tongue in cheek ‘til a hole
Burns out her mouth
And fingers' crossed like the
Promise of Cub Scouts
And we know that the picture
In her heart-shaped locket’s
Far from an inanimate object
She’s as dark as the blood
Pulsing under her skin
Still afraid of the boogey man under her bed
And we know that the ashes in
The urn was a person
And we never should have burned him

Shake it
Shake it like you ‘bouts to get paid
Ah, boom swaggaboom like you gots a peg leg
(uh) shake it
Shake it like you ‘bouts to get paid
Ah, boom swaggaboom like you gots a peg leg

I’m game, you’re game
You’re the main attraction
And the way you fit your jeans
Makes me ready for action
I’m game, you’re game
You’re the main attraction
And the way you fit your jeans
Makes me ready for action
Break it down to a fraction
I’m doing decimal subtraction to
Find a reaction break it down to a fraction
I’m doing decimal subtraction to
Find a reaction
This is for the CO, 3OH!3, my people
We got the music that you
Can’t stand still to
And even if you don’t dance (don’t dance)
I gotta get you out and take this chance
This is for the CO, 3OH!3, my people
We got the music that you
Can’t stand still to
And even if you don’t dance (don’t dance)
I gotta get you out and take this chance

I caught her cornering the
Pictures in her purse
A white reflection of the
Window of his hearse and she knows not to be
Another wife in waiting
So she’s just a widow that I’m dating
Rolled up sleeves with a carton in it’s fold
A rusted chain with a cross
That once was gold
And I look from a distance
As the coffin closes
And disappears below the roses

Shake it
Shake it like you ‘bouts to get paid
Ah, boom swaggaboom like you gots a peg leg
(uh) shake it
Shake it like you ‘bouts to get paid
Ah, boom swaggaboom like you gots a peg leg
This is for the CO, 3OH!3, my people
We got the music that you
Can’t stand still to
And even if you don’t dance (don’t dance)
I gotta get you out and take this chance
This is for the CO, 3OH!3, my people
We got the music that you
Can’t stand still to
And even if you don’t dance (don’t dance)
I gotta get you out and take this chance
(no, you don’t)

Oh, I want you to dance again (don’t dance)
Oh, no, don’t dance
Can we dance again? (don’t dance)
You better not be dancing
Oh, no, don’t dance
