STOP STOP STOP

See the girl with cymbals on her fingers Entering through the door Ruby glistening from her navel Shimmering around the floor Bells on feet go ting-a-ling-a-linging Going through my head Sweat is falling, just like teardrops Running from her hair 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 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 inside But I know that she cannnot see me Hidden by the light Closer, closer, she is getting nearer Soon she'll be in reach As I enter into a spotlight She stands up for a speech Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Or I'll have to leave Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Or I'll have to leave Now all the people are staring Don't know what to think As 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 Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Or I'll have to leave
