See the girl with symbols on her fingers Entering through the door
Ruby glistening from her navel Shimmering around the floor
Bells of peacoat ting-a-ling-a-ling-ing Going through my head
Sweat is falling just like a teardrop's running from her head
Now she's dancing,
going through the movements,
swaying to and fro
Body moving,
bringing back a memory thought so long ago
Blood is rushing,
temperature is rising,
sweating from my brow
Like a snake,
her body fascinates me,
I can't look away now
Stop,
stop,
stop all the dancing,
give me time to breathe Stop,
stop,
stop all the dancing,
all I have to leave
Now she's moving all around the table,
slurring all in sight But I know that she cannot see me,
hidden by the light
Closer,
closer,
she is getting nearer,
soon she'll be in reach
As I enter into her spotlight,
she stands lost for speech
Stop,
stop,
stop all the dancing,
give me time to breathe
Stop,
stop,
stop all the dancing,
all I have to leave
Now all the people are staring,
don't know what to think
And we struggle knocking over tables,
spilling all the drinks
Can't they understand that I want her,
happens every week
Heavy hand upon my collar,
throws me in the street
Stop,
stop,
stop all the dancing,
give me time to breathe
Stop,
stop,
stop all the dancing,
all I have to leave
