I'm in the bar when I should be in front of you
I play the pinball when I really should be skanking
It doesn't matter how many times you ask me up

I appreciate it but it's complicated
I just can't dance baby I just can't loose myself

I've got an image and I have to live up
On to the latest trend so nowdays I'm macho
And have you ever seen a macho shake
Or twist his butt I know your not
So I'm not lickin' in on the spot
Cause I can't dance baby I just can't get in trance

Someone told me bad boys don't know why
They not dancing someone told me what they say
Is their only way to slip away

They don't know how to dance away wanna slip away
They don't know how to dance away
