I Can’t Dance to That Songtext
von Chris Rea

Now there′s no storyline
Just a real good time
And I don't want to seem to be mistaken
But there′s a tale to tell
On this road to hell
It's in between the lines, the case I'm making

Oh, Lord, look my way
Save me from these crazy things I see
I don′t know what′s going on 'round here these days
But I can′t dance to that
Oh, I can't dance to that
Let me dance to this
′Cause I can't dance to that

If you′ll excuse me please
You see, I got to go
And take myself before I'm past redemption
A voice is calling out
As if I didn't know
This wretched road is paved with good intentions


All the way
Down this Judas track
I know it so well
And I ain′t going back
Oh, I don′t know what happened to the good time songs
But I can't dance to that
Oh, I can′t dance to that
Girl, let me dance to this
'Cause I can′t dance to that

Tell me what you know
Take away these chains
What stood in front of me, it looks so pretty
But I can't dance to a cold machine
Oh, Lord, and every drummer you know just what I mean

Oh, I can′t dance to that
So let me dance to this

Oh, I can't dance to that
Oh no, let me dance to that
'Cause I can′t dance to that
Oh I can′t dance to that
I can't dance to that
I can′t dance to that
I can't dance to that
