See the girl with cymbals on her fingers entering through the door Rubies glistening from her navel, shimmering around the floor Bells on feet go ting-a-ling-a-ling, going through my head Sweat is falling just like a tear drop running from her head Now she's dancing, going through the movements, swaying to and fro Body moving, bringing back a memory, thoughts of long ago Blood is rushing, temperature is rising, sweating from my brow Like a snake, her body fascinates me; I can't look away now [Chorus] Stop, stop, stop all the dancing; give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, or I'll have to leave Now she's moving all around; the table's luring all in sight But I know that she cannot see me hidden by the light Closer, closer, she is getting nearer; soon she'll be in reach As I enter into her spotlight, she stands lost for speech [Chorus] Now I hold her, people are staring, don't know what to think And we struggle, knocking over tables, spilling all the drinks Can't they understand that I want her? Happens every week Heavy hand upon my collar throws me in the street [Chorus]
