It's gonna pull you from the dance
Shift your weight out of there
Fast asleep in a room somewhere
You nearly lost your name in there

Everybody knows
When you dance too slow
You're all alone, on your own

Just lay the sequence in your head
Embrace the fact you're someone else

Everybody knows
When you dance too slow
No-one ever comes and says, hello
Everybody knows
When you dance too slow
You're all alone, on your own

Calling your name from across the room
Still in the rooms, everything went boom
This reception it doesn't come in clear
You just can't make the connection, dear

Everybody knows
When you dance too slow
No-one ever comes and says, hello
Everybody knows
When you dance too slow
You're all alone, on your own
