She said she trained to be a dancer
But she had a proper job by day

Before he passed away
Asked could I help her with a problem
She doesn't get out much no more
I'm not looking for a lover no no no I wanna dance that is all
Oh I wanna dance that is all

And all around the world are people singing hallelujah
And every man in town wants to do it to ya
With your back up again the cigarette machine
Oh it is bad for your health if you know what I mean oh yeah
Oh yeah
And the guys at the front have seen your act one million times before
But nobody does it quite the same so they are sitting down for more
But you are making them feel so useless and dumb
Cause they've seen it all and they still can't come ah
