CuteSparkina's explanation made my day. It could only have been more amusing if it was made through interpretive dance. Incidentally, it's correct. I have to add smth, though: "I saw you watching from the stairs, you're everyone that ever cared Oh lordy, oh lordy, you know I need some loving I'm moving, touch me!" - The bi caballero wanted to dance with the gay caballero, but the gay caballero was reluctant. Perhaps Annie was bait, armcandy to be seen from the stairs by John, a double provocation in that she was a woman. It didn't work, apparently, because the bi caballero goes on to flirt with the room at large - "Dancing, won't someone dance with me? Touch me!"
