lyrics

She enters the room like a rolling thunder
With a glance, just a glance she rendered us all asunder
With a curious way she had us all on our knees
And with each passing breath and moan we were all begging please

Says she wants to be a dancer, all night long
I can't help but answer when she calls
I can't help it if I'm in your way, hey man,
Hey, but I'm a dancer too

Oh, she's had a way, had a way, and we let her
Oh, she kicks us, she beats us, oh it can't get much better
Somewhere along the way I notice something's amiss
She presents her boot and I commence to kiss it

Says she wants to be a dancer, all night long
I can't help but answer when she calls
I can't help it if I'm in your way, hey man,
Hey, but I'm a dancer too

She's had her way for far too long now
She enters the room and I, I start to bow down
Can you please explain how things ever got this way
I'll do whatever, so ever, so ever, so ever you say

Says she wants to be a dancer, all night long
I can't help but answer when she calls
I can't help it if I'm in your way, hey man,
Hey, but I'm a dancer too
