Doo, doo, doo-doo.
Well, do you wanna dance, hold my hand?
Tell me, I'm your lovin' man?
Baby, do you wanna dance?
Well, do you wanna dance under the moonlight?
Hug and kiss all through the night, now?
Baby, do you wanna dance, dance, dance?
Well, do you, do you, do you, do you wanna dance?
Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna dance?
Baby, do you wanna dance?
All right, all right, look out!
Look out!
(do you, do you, do you, do you wanna dance? ) do you wanna dance?
(do you, do you, do you, do you wanna dance? )
(do you, do you, do you, do you wanna dance? )
Well, do you wanna dance, make romance?
Kiss and squeeze, yeh, yeh?
Do you wanna dance?
All right, now dance.
Well!
Beep! beep!
Wow!
Well, (do you) do you, (do you) do you (wanna dance? ) do you wanna dance?

(baby) baby (do you wanna dance? ) do you wanna dance?
I'm not quite sure!
Do You Wanna Dance
Yoko Ono's 'Do You Wanna Dance' stands as a quintessential example of her pioneering work in the avant-garde and pop fusion genres of the late 1970s. Recorded during a period when she was actively collaborating with artists like Peter Gabriel and exploring the boundaries between performance art and music, the track embodies her signature approach of blending conceptual ideas with catchy melodies. The song reflects her ongoing interest in interactive and participatory elements, inviting listeners to engage directly with the music rather than passively consuming it. As part of her extensive discography, which includes significant contributions to the punk and new wave movements, this recording highlights her unique ability to merge political commentary with accessible pop structures. It remains a notable song in her catalog, showcasing her continued evolution as an artist who prioritized social relevance and artistic freedom over commercial conventions.
