I Can't Dance to That - 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

So let me dance to this

'Cos 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

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

So let me dance to this

'Cos 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
