lyrics

I was standing by myself now pretty bored
In the midst of a rambling hoard
Then I watched as you walked in
I spilled my drink and dribbled my gin

Then the band began to play
Some disco crap from another day
But to me I didn’t care
I slid up to you and gave my come to me stare

Would you come take his hand
Even though you know I don’t like this band
So he took her to the middle of the floor
Hey did I mention that I was poor

Chorus
Come on little baby and dance with me
We will swing till we’re a hundred and three
Don’t you worry about your off the shoulder dress
Our bodies are loose and they will do the rest

I thought I was some kinda special thing
I noticed that she wasn’t wearing an diamond ring
Then she asked me “Hey what’s your name”
I said nothing special it’s pretty plain

Her parents in the corner they didn’t care
They were busy watching the sexual pair
Right then I decided my move couldn’t wait
I said patent pending in fifty states

He decided to make his move
The girls back home thought it was pretty cool
But before he could begin
She made a move, a sin in Catholic school

Chorus

The band pulled out a slow tune
I pulled her in close and together we swooned
I felt her thigh against her hip
She said “let me guess your name is Dick”

At that moment the world was right
Her perfume, her breathing, my line of sight
And as the band played Boys to Men
On my should she rested her head

Chorus
