See the girl with cymbals on her fingers Entering through the door Ruby glist'ning from her navel Shimmering across the floor Bells on feet go ting-a-ling-a-linging Running through my head Sweat falling just like a teardrop Running from my head
Now she's dancing going through the movements Swaying to and fro Body moving bringing back a memory Thoughts from 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 tables Luring all in sight But I know that she can't see me Hidden by the light Closer closer she's getting nearer Soon she'll be in reach As I enter into her spotlight She stands lost for speech
Chorus
Chorus
Now I hold her people are staring Don't know what to think As we struggle knocking over tables Spilling all the drinks Can't they understand I want her Happens every week Heavy hand upon my collar Throws me into the street
