 Intro
 Wake up  in the morning with a head like ‘what ya done?’
 This used  to be the life but I don’t need another one.
 You  like cuttin’ up and carrying on, you wear them gowns.
 So how  come I feel so lonely when you’re up getting down?
So  I'll play along when I hear  that special song
I’m  gonna be the one who gets it right.
You  better move when you're swayin’  round the room
Look’s  like magic’s only ours tonight
 But I  don’t feel like dancin’
 When  the old Joanna plays
 My heart  could take a chance
 But my  two feet can’t find a way
 You'd think that I could  muster up a little soft-shoe  gentle sway
 But I  don’t feel like dancin’
 No sir,  no dancin’ today.
 Don’t feel like dancin’,  dancin’
 Even if i find nothin'  better to do
 Don’t feel like dancin’,  dancin’
 Why’d you break it  down when I’m not in the mood?
 Don’t feel like dancin’,  dancin’
 I'd rather be home  with the one in the bed  till dawn, with you  ouh ouh
 Post Chorus
 Cities  come and cities go just like the old empires
 When all  you do is change your clothes and call that versatile.
 You got  so many colours make a blind man so confused.
 Then why  can’t I keep up when you’re the only thing I lose?
 So I’ll  just pretend that I  know which way to bend
 And I’m  gonna tell the whole world that you’re  mine.
 Just please  understand, when I  see you clap your hands
 If you  stick around I’m sure that you’ll be fine.
 But I  don’t feel like dancin’
 When  the old Joanna plays
 My heart  could take a chance
 But  my two feet can’t find a way
 You'd think that I  could muster up a little soft-shoe  gentle sway
 But I  don’t feel like dancin’
 No sir,  no dancin’ today.
 Don’t feel like dancin’,  dancin’
 Even if i find nothin'  better to do
 Don’t feel like dancin’,  dancin’
 Why’d you break it  down when I’m not in the mood?
 Don’t feel like dancin’,  dancin’
 I'd rather be home  with the one in the bed  till dawn, with you  ouh ouh
 Post Chorus
You  can’t make me dance around
 But your two-step makes my chest pound.
 Just lay me down  as you float away into the shimmer  light.
 But I  don’t feel like dancin’
 When  the old Joanna plays
 My heart  could take a chance
 But  my two feet can’t find a way
 You'd think that I  could muster up a little soft-shoe  gentle sway
 But I  don’t feel like dancin’
 No sir,  no dancin’ today.
 Don’t feel like dancin’,  dancin’
 Even if i find nothin'  better to do
 Don’t feel like dancin’,  dancin’
 Why’d you break it  down when I’m not in the mood?
 Don’t feel like dancin’,  dancin’
 I'd rather be home  with the one in the bed  till dawn, with you  ouh ouh
