You! Me! Dancing!

The beats yeah,
they were coming out the speakers and we're winding up,
straight in your sneakers
and I'm dancing like every song
he spins is Bis or like
all my dance heroes would if they existed

yeah it's sad that you think that we're all just scenesters
and even if we were its not the scene you're thinking of,
to taking props from nineties band fashions,
all crop tops and testosterone passion

If there's one thing that I could never confess,
it's that I can't dance a single step.

It's you!
It's me!
And there's dancing!
It's you!
It's me!
And there's dancing!

Not sure if you mind if I dance with you
but I don't think right now you care about anything at all
And if only there were clothes on the floor,
I'd feel for certain I was bedroom dancing
And it's all flaming limbs at the front line
Every single one of us is twisted by design
and dispatches from the back of mind
say so long as were here everything is alright


If there's one thing that I could never confess,
it's that I can't dance a single step.


It's you!
It's me!
And there's dancing!
It's you!
It's me!
And there's dancing!

If there's one thing that I could never confess,
it's that I can't dance a single step.
One thing that I could never confess,
it's that I can't dance a single step.

And I always get confused,
Because in supermarkets they turn the lights off when they want you to leave,
but in discos they turn them on.
And it's always sad to go, but it's never that sad,
Because there's only so many places you're guaranteed of getting a hug when you leave.
And on the way home, it always seems like a good idea to go paddling in the fountain, and that's because it IS a good idea.
And we're just like, how Rousseau depicts man in the state of nature:
We're undeveloped, we're ignorant, we're stupid, but we're happy.
