I Don't Feel Like Dancin' Lyrics
This used to be the life, but I don't need another one
You like cutting up and carrying on you wear them gowns
So how come I feel so lonely when you're up getting down?
I'm gonna be the one that gets it right
You'd better move when you're swinging round the room
Looks like the magic's only ours tonight
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
Even if I find nothing better to do
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Why'd you pick a tune 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
When all you do is change your clothes and call that versatile
You got so many colors make a blind man so confused
So why can't I keep up when you're the only thing I'd lose?
And I'm gonna tell the whole world that you're mine
Please understand when I see you clap your hands
If you stick around I'm sure that I'll be fine
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
Even if I find nothing better to do
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Why'd you pick a tune 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
But your two-step makes my chest pound
Just lay me down
As you float away into the shimmer lights
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
Even if I find nothing better to do
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Why'd you pick a tune 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
Even if I find nothing better to do
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Why'd you pick a tune 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






'The Ol' Joanna' is Cockney ryhming slang for piano... And in this case the ol' Joanna is played by Sir Elton John.
Love it. Didn't know that one!
Love it. Didn't know that one!

I Think That This Song Is Awesome In The Way It Completely Contradicts Itself... It's About Not Wanting To Dance But The Beat Makes You Want To... Absolute Genius...

bobcat12, if you don't like this song, then don't comment on it at all. Simple as that.
Btw, in the chorus where it goes "why'd you pick a tune" sounds a lot like "why'd you break it down" too.

Apparently Jake said that he wrote the song when he was suffering from depression, and it is about how he had to put on a front of always being happy, and always being up for everything (the upbeat music), but he just really didn't want to do anything (the lyrics). So I'm told anyway : )

this is possibly the gayest song i have ever heard and personally i think it is fantastic, he may not feel like dancin but whenever i hear this i come over all a quiver and dance my little heart out in the campest way possible much better than richard the sexual terrorist 'voguing' in big brother 7.

This is truly the campest song ever and I love it. Not usualy my style (Rock and Metal) but occasionaly like to indulge :P.

This song reminds me of four of my best friends in the entire world....It's one of the ones we play on road trips.....It's great driving music, but yeah..its a great song and yeah,...it makes me want to dance as well:P

i love this song

An ironic, enjoyable song with echoes of the Bee Gees.
Reminds me of Leo Sayer too.

song is a guy whos met his love at the club, she girl is obviously a club kind of girl, but now that he has a girl he doesnt need to go to the club again and wants to just spend time with her, even though he is draged out to the club as her boyfriend he is just over the club life because now that he has the girl all he would rather do is watch her dance than pick up other girls
