Will Smith Lyrics for Song: Trapped on the Dance Floor
 Lyrics for Album: Homebase [1991]
 
 
 
 1776>Your trapped on the dance floor
 
 
 
 It's locked there's no escape
 
 
 
 There's no eat no drink cant take a break
 
 
 
 No seat to sit down you gotta stand up
 
 
 
 The record on the wheel reacts like a handcuff
 
 
 
 Your in a cage and this groove will bound you
 
 
 
 People in the club like bars around you
 
 
 
 The doors open up and the people are boarding
 
 
 
 Here are the prisoners the DJ is the warden
 
 
 
 Your mind is useless instinct takes control
 
 
 
 Jam to techno
 
 
 
 Groove to soul to soul
 
 
 
 You been arrested
 
 
 
 Now your being tested
 
 
 
 The beat is a sex fiend, you're being molested
 
 
 
 Stead drum kicks like pistol in spinal
 
 
 
 You gotta dance and get round like a Rhino
 
 
 
 The DJ cuts with a knife like a surgery
 
 
 
 Sayin that the slice aint nice that's purgory
 
 
 
 The music infiltrates you mutates you
 
 
 
 Grabs you holds you moulds you and let you
 
 
 
 Do things you wouldn't a otherwise done
 
 
 
 Like shake rattle roll pump twist and then some
 
 
 
 Ain't no law here you can't protest this
 
 
 
 Stop looking around it ain't no oasis
 
 
 
 You can't leave till the man pulls the needle
 
 
 
 Take that as a warning
 
 
 
 Take heed or I'll quicken the pitch and make you dance faster
 
 
 
 The drum is the whip, bass line is the master
 
 
 
 The temperature's a 100 and yet you still want more
 
 
 
 You're a slave and your trapped on the dance floor
 
 
 
 Oh oh I'm trapped like a
 
 
 
 ???
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm trapped
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm so confused
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Now your wondering lost in a jungle
 
 
 
 You came in hyped up but now your humble
 
 
 
 Bringing out sweat in your silky wet clothes
 
 
 
 You scream for help, blend in with the ??? and hoes
 
 
 
 You try to sit but their ain't know spaces
 
 
 
 The floor is a desert, a party oasis
 
 
 
 I know your on the tip for the rhyme I just did
 
 
 
 And here's a little taste of my homeboy, El Sid
 
 
 
 Ay a prince it's the El Sid's version
 
 
 
 I'm a raid on the track, I'm a hip-hop surgeon
 
 
 
 The floor is jam packed get away from the bar scene
 
 
 
 The strum of the drum has you trapped like a sardine
 
 
 
 You try to move no form of escape
 
 
 
 The heat brings on sweat, stick on like tape
 
 
 
 Party's like a ???
 
 
 
 Girls slim and trim on the floor
 
 
 
 Don't try to shoot for the door
 
 
 
 This ain't the gym
 
 
 
 The party goers every night had a scene
 
 
 
 This mic try to respond but still trapped like in Venus
 
 
 
 Aint a spiff or a spoof
 
 
 
 Boy you better not goof
 
 
 
 You about to cave in although you ain't on a roof
 
 
 
 The rhythm track from offside's to angles
 
 
 
 Playing the wimp fight resist , strangle
 
 
 
 You can't escape until the DJ's fingers up
 
 
 
 So play like a phone or coat and just hang it up
 
 
 
 The speakers pumping out sounds and hip words
 
 
 
 Lines between the rhythm designed to equip nerds
 
 
 
 You better jam we don't care if you hardcore
 
 
 
 Cause we got you trapped on the dance floor
 
 
 
 Oh oh I'm trapped like a
 
 
 
 ???
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm trapped
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm so confused
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Oh oh I'm trapped like a
 
 
 
 ???
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm trapped
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm so confused
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Me and prince got together just to kick our lines
 
 
 
 No trouble at the party cause we're strapped with nines
 
 
 
 Dance floor secure, don't bother tryin to get out
 
 
 
 You looking for the late AM this man pull red out
 
 
 
 Nobody cause killing is mean
 
 
 
 Got ya dancin' in the dark and dressed like Springsteen
 
 
 
 Razzamatazz a pasazz about to rip the flesh is my man Jazz Fresh
 
 
 
 Soon as I worked through the door
 
 
 
 I got trapped on the dance floor
 
 
 
 See this girlie that I never saw
 
 
 
 She was looking raw
 
 
 
 Came a little closer
 
 
 
 Then I opposed her
 
 
 
 Then I drop the fox trot so hot that I roast her
 
 
 
 ??? planes in the damn chain
 
 
 
 hard to explain
 
 
 
 I did it up like I was straight outta Soul Train
 
 
 
 Listen as I discuss this yo bust this
 
 
 
 Like a hammer before me you cant touch this
 
 
 
 Trapped on the floor like a vulture
 
 
 
 Part of my culture
 
 
 
 You may even thought I was drived to faulter
 
 
 
 Get live like a ???jack that fives you the window main???
 
 
 
 Add a little mic and janet you cant understand it
 
 
 
 Cause ??? thought I was from another planet
 
 
 
 Way of whipping and dipping
 
 
 
 And sliding ??? of what I'm providin
 
 
 
 Other dancers go and hide
 
 
 
 Like Charles ???
 
 
 
 I'm prancin
 
 
 
 I keep the dance all night until
 
 
 
 The party's over the party's over
 
 
 
 Like a cowboy at a rodeo
 
 
 
 From mister mister dosie doe
 
 
 
 Around the dance floor
 
 
 
 Steppin the new hardcore
 
 
 
 I'm Jazz Fresh and I'm trapped
 
 
 
 Oh oh I'm trapped like a
 
 
 
 ???
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm trapped
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm so confused
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Max up
 
 
 
 to step up
 
 
 
 just to keep this rap up
 
 
 
 the time that he possesses the best in a contest
 
 
 
 Jeff with his right and left like Jazz Fresh
 
 
 
 No other than the brother the lover Jazzy Jeff
 
 
 
 I
 
 
 
 'm the one dance floor at the station
 
 
 
 ??? time around quarter to ten
 
 
 
 times work hard
 
 
 
 the customers scarred
 
 
 
 your tickets to freedom
 
 
 
 yo you ain't gonna need em
 
 
 
 your sentence is 25 years to life
 
 
 
 a ??? is your husband and wife
 
 
 
 trapped behind the steel
 
 
 
 the steel of the wheels
 
 
 
 don't come to the party if you don't wanna know how business feels
 
 
 
 I walk strong carry a big stick
 
 
 
 Sell myself all packed and thick
 
 
 
 When they sound the drum you know its time to roll
 
 
 
 Might as well have fun there's no parol
 
 
 
 I set a trap and caught you like a mouse
 
 
 
 For times ahead no chance for a halfway house
 
 
 
 Pump the bass in all sections
 
 
 
 Prince, sid, and jazz my officers of correction
 
 
 
 Cant' escape the floor cut the crime out
 
 
 
 ??? wall ain't no use tryin to climb out
 
 
 
 cause I'm running this show and it's live in here
 
 
 
 you try to escape another five years
 
 
 
 I got you trapped and I'm your savior
 
 
 
 You dance real hard you might get out on good behavior
 
 
 
 But if you don't I give you more
 
 
 
 'Cause DJ Jazzy Jeff got you trapped on the dance floor
 
 
 
 Oh oh I'm trapped like a
 
 
 
 ???
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm trapped
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm so confused
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Oh oh I'm trapped like a
 
 
 
 ???
 
 
 
 I can't get out
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm trapped
 
 
 
 Can't you see I'm so confused
 
 
 
 I can't get out
