Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
To the babe, I wanna tell you what's exactly on my mind
I won't stay at home another night
While you're out makin' time
I'm well aware of where you go
And every girl you see
'Cause whenever I can't find you
Boy, my phone begins to ring
And I can't dance to that music you're playin'
Stop, think it over, and rewrite your tune
I can't dance to that music you're playin'
Better get yourself a together, you'd better do it soon
Last Friday night, the phone rang
You said, "It was Little Joe
We had a one-night stand
To play down on Covent Road
If you went down to the park to play
You weren't playin' with your band
'Cause your sax was here at home
All night behind your music stand
And I can't dance to that music you're playin'
You better stop, think it over, and rewrite your tune
I can't dance to that music you're playin'
You better get yourself together, you'd better do it soon
I can't dance (I can't dance) I can't dance (I can't dance)
I can't dance to what you're singin'
I can't dance to what you're playin'
I can't dance to that music you're playin'
Stop, think it over, and rewrite your tune
I can't dance to that music you're playin'
You better stop, think it over, and rewrite your tune
Now if you really love me, then unpack your bags and stay
Don't tell me you've got to think it over, got to get away
I've taken all that medicine of yours that I can stand
Doctor, please change your prescription or find another man
'Cause I can't dance to that music you're playin'
Stop, think it over, and rewrite your tune
I can't dance to that music you're playin'
You better get yourself together, you better do it soon
I can't dance, (I can't dance to that music you're playin'), (I can't dance)
No babe, (stop, think it over)
And rewrite your tune
I can't dance, (I can't dance), to that music you're playin', (no babe)
Stop, think it over, and rewrite your tune, (I can't dance to the music)
I can't dance, (I can't dance), to that music you're playin', (I can't dance)
