Arctic Monkeys - Dancing Shoes
Get on your dancing shoes
There's one thing on your mind
Hoping they're looking for you
Sure you'll be rummaging' through
And the shit, shock, horror
You've seen your future bride
Oh, but it's oh so absurd
For you to say the first word
So you're waiting and waiting
The only reason that you came
So what you scared for?
Don't you always do the same
It's what you there for, don't you know
The lights are flashing
Down in here tonight
And some might exchange a glance
But keep pretending to dance
Don't act like it's not happening
As if it's impolite
To go and mention your name
Instead you'll just do the same
As they all do, and hope for the best...
The only reason that you came
So what you scared for?
Well don't you always do the same
It's what you're there for but no
Get on your dancing shoes
You sexy little swine
Hoping they're looking for you
Sure you'll be rummaging through
Oh and the shit, shock, horror
You've seen your future bride
Oh, but it's oh so absurd
For you to say the first word
So you're waiting and waiting

Cure - Last Dance
I'm so glad you came i'm so glad
You remembered to see how we're endeding our last
Dance together expectant too puctual but
Prettier than ever i really believed that this time
It's forever
But older than me now more constant more real
And the fur and the mouth and the innocence
Turned to hair and contentment that hangs in
Abesement a woman now standing where once
There was only a girl
I'm so glad you came i'm so glad you
Remembered the walking through walls in the
Heart of december the blindness of happiness
Of falling down laughing and i really believed
That this time was forever
But christmas falls late now flatter and colder
And never as bright as when we used to fall all
This in an instant before i can kiss you a woman
Now standing were once there was only a girl
I'm so gled that you came i'm so glld you
Remembered to see how we're ending our last
Dance together reluctantly cautiously but
Prettier than ever i really beleived that this time
It's forever
But christman falls late now flatter and colder
And never as bright as when we used to fall and
Even if we drink i don't think we would kiss in
The way that we did when the woman was only a
Girl
(Live 1989)
Rolling Stones - Dancing With Mr. D
Down in the graveyard where we have our tryst
The air smells sweet, the air smells sick
He never smiles, his mouth merely twists
The breath in my lungs feels clinging and thick
But I know his name, he's called Mr. D.
And one of these days he's gonna set you free
Human skulls is hangin' right 'round his neck
The palms of my hands is clammy and wet
Lord, I was dancin', dancin', dancin' so free
Dancin', dancin', dancin' so free
Dancin', Lord, keep your hand off me
Dancin' with Mr. D., with Mr. D., with Mr. D.
Will it be poison put in my glass
Will it be slow or will it be fast?
The bite of a snake, the sting of a spider
A drink of Belladonna on a Toussaint night
Hiding in a corner in New York City
Lookin' down a fourty-four in West Virginia
I was dancin', dancin', dancin' so free
Dancin', dancin', dancin' so free
Dancin', Lord, keep your hand off me
Dancin' with Mr. D., with Mr. D., with Mr. D.
One night I was dancin' with a lady in black
Wearin' black silk gloves and a black silk hat
She looked at me longin' with black velvet eyes
She gazed at me strange all cunning and wise
Then I saw the flesh just fall off her bones
The eyes in her skull was burning like coals
Lord, have mercy, fire and brimstone
I was dancin' with Mrs. D.
Lord, I was dancin', dancin', dancin' so free
I was dancin', dancin', dancin' so free
Dancin', dancin', dancin' so free
(A Mick)

Bruce Springsteen - Dancing In The Dark
I get up in the evening, and I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the moring, I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired, man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help
(Chorus)
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark
Message keeps getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving round the place
I check myself out in the mirror I wanna change my clothes my hair my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere just sitting in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere baby I just know that there is
(Chorus)
You sit around getting older there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
I'll shake this world off my shoulders come baby this laughs on me
Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up alright
They say you got to stay hungry hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write
this book
I need a love reaction come on now baby give me just one look
(Chorus)
Hey baby!
(Bruce 1984)
Patti Smith/Marianne Faithfull - Ghost Dance
What is it children that falls from the sky?
Tayi, taya, tayi, aye ya.
Mannah from Heaven from most high,
Food from the Father, tayi, taye ya.
We shall live again, we shall live again,
We shall live again, shake out the grief.
Peace to your brother, give and take heed,
Tayi, taya, it left two feet.
One foot extended, snake to the ground,
Wave of the Earth, one turn around.
We shall live again, we shall live again,
We shall live again,shake out the grief, babe.
Stretch out your arms now dip and sway,
Fruit of thy bird, tayi, taya.
Threw off your shoe, haul off the sow,
Dust off the words that shape from the tale.
We shall live again, we shall live again,
We shall live again, shake out the ghost dance.
Here we are, Father, here, Holy Ghost,
Bread of your bread, host of your host.
We are the tears that fall from your eyes,
Word of your word, cry of your cry.
We shall live again, we shall live again.
We shall live again, we shall live.
What is it, Father, in your eye,
What is this grave sign, eyes to cry.
Blood of my baby, well, just what I need.
What is it, hide me, way off to speed.
Who is it, Father, holy that night?
What is it, Father, that moves to the right?
What is it, Father, isn't it pain?
What is it, Father, that shapes from your main?
What is it, Father, supposed to be brave?
A lot of questions, the right to live
What is it, baby, I can't do.
Your mama loves you, I'm dying, too.
I won't forget you, never lie
I'll always love you till I die...
(Patti & Kimberly dancing ghostly in 2007)
Buffy Sainte Marie - Dance Me Around
And when I think about all I missed
All those kisses that you gave to someone else
I wish I'd been around
But I was up there in the air
while you were over here
with both feet on the ground
Who'd've ever thought it
that it shoulda been you and me
Got to find a way to show it
This effect you have on me
When I think about what I missed
I wish I coulda been your girl
And when I think about all I've lost
I could never count the cost
Cause of what we've got for free
And now it's later,
maybe better late than never
I don't know
But here you are with me
Dance Me Around again
Hold me like it's never gonna end
Finally I've found
somebody who's always been a friend
When I think about what I missed
I wish I coulda been your girl.
(Listen to her voice!)
