Hey, listen now it's coming so close
I'll let the rhythm surround me
I'm getting itchy and I'm ready to move
I'm mighty glad that you found me

There's a drummer going at it
Way down in the core of my soul
There's no escaping the music
And I'm psyching up my feet
And they're telling me we're ready to roll

There are times when I can fight it
But now's the time I want to give in
Sooner or later, we'll get around to the love
But now's the time to shake it, oh baby, let the party begin
Baby, let the party begin

When I woke up this morning and I looked out my window
I could see the sky was cloudy and gray
There was a chill in the air and a pain in my heart
And the thunder it was coming my way

Oh, it was looking really bad and I was so alone
And there wasn't any place to go
But now I'm out of the blue, I know what I got to do
And something in me's starting to grow
I can feel it in me starting to grow, grow, grow, grow, grow now!

I got dance in my pants
Every time I feel the power in a radio wave
I turn it up all the way
I got dance in my pants
Every time I see the glory of a good looking face
Well, I just got to say

Hey now, don't you worry baby, everything'll be fine
We got nothing but the best and we got nothing but time
And there'll always be a time when they'll be waiting in line
To be dancing, dancing

You don't say nothing all week
You're getting ready for dancing, dancing
And now your body really knows how to speak
You're getting ready for dancing, dancing

You don't say nothing all week
You're getting ready for dancing, dancing
Now your body really knows how to speak
You're getting ready, come on, take a chance

You got a whole lotta style and a load of romance
And me, me, me, I got dance in my pants
I got dance in my pants, I got dance in my pants

I'm a lover not a dancer, I'm a lover not a dancer
Don't want to be on my feet when I can be on my back
Don't want to be on the floor when I can be in the sack

I'm a lover not a dancer, I'm a lover not a dancer
I'm just a little bit tired if you know what I mean
Don't want to be in a crowd when I can be in a dream
I'm a lover not a dancer, baby, baby, let me prove it to you
Baby, let me prove it to you

Well, we can rock it really hard or we can roll it really slow
We can lift it really high or we can dip it really low
We can hold it in tight or we can let it all out
Or we can work up a sweat and really stomp it and shout

Let me pull you so close and then we'll break away fast
We'll be the best on the floor we got the cool and the flash
We'll make a dangerous turn but we'll come out of it fine
I know the best of the moves we'll get them right every time

I'm a lover not a dancer, I'm a lover not a dancer
Don't want to be on my feet when I can be on my back
Don't want to be on the floor when I can be in the sack

I'm a lover not a dancer, I'm a lover not a dancer
I'm just a little bit tired if you know what I mean
Don't want to be in a crowd when I can be in a dream
I'm a lover not a dancer, baby, baby, let me prove it to you
Baby, let me prove it to you

I don't care what you say
Ain't nothing gonna to get me out on that floor
Oh baby, you know there may be some moves
That you haven't even seen yet
No way Jose
Well, I got a new step for you
Made it up all by myself
I bet you never tried this before

Oh jeez!
Come on!
Oh jeez!
Come on!
Oh jeez!

Now that you know how it's done
It's only a matter of practice
Well, I could sure use some of that practice
Ha ha ha, now that you know how it's done
It's only a matter of practice
Grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow

I got dance in my pants
Every time I feel the power in a radio wave
I turn it up all the way
I got dance in my pants
Every time I see the glory of a good looking face
Well, I just got to say

Hey now, don't you worry, baby, everything'll be fine
We got nothing but the best and we got nothing but time
And there'll always be a time when they'll be waiting in line
To be dancing, dancing

You don't say nothing all week
You're getting ready for dancing, dancing
And now your body really knows how to speak
You're getting ready for dancing, dancing

You don't say nothing all week
You're getting ready for dancing, dancing
Now your body really knows how to speak
You're getting ready, come on, take a chance
You got a whole lotta style and a load of romance
And me, me, me, I got dance in my pants

I'll crank it up all the way, they'll never get me to stop
I gotta stay in motion 'til the moment that I finally drop
When they decide that I'm gone
I know they're gonna try to put me to rest
But I won't be afraid because I know, I know there's dance after death

I know there's dance after death
And I don't ever wanna be rescued
And I don't ever wanna be saved
I got a feeling that I'm gonna be alive forever
Dancing on the edge of a grave
Dancing on the edge of a grave

And I don't ever wanna be rescued
And I don't ever wanna be saved
I got a feeling that I'm gonna be alive forever
Dancing on the edge of a grave
Dancing on the edge of a, dancing on the edge of a
Dancing on the edge of a grave
