Dancin' Fool
Frank Zappa · Saarbrucken
Or why I wrote this song,
One of my legs is shorter than the other and both my feets too long.
Course not right along rythem,
I got no natural rythem,
But I go dancin` every night, hopein` one night I might get it right!
(Chorus)
I`m a Dancin` Fool
(Dancin` fool)
Dancin` Fool.
I`m a Dancin` Fool
(Dancin` fool)
Dancin` Fool
When I hear that beat, I jump outta my seat, When I hear the beat cuz` I`m a,
Dancin Fool
(Dancin` fool)
Dancin` Fool
Disco folks all dressed up,
Life is fit to kill,
I walk on in, see `em there, I`m gonna give them all a thrill.
When they see me comin`,
They all steps aside,
They ask them while I come in, My Social Suicide!
(Chorus)
I`m a Dancin` Fool
(Dancin` fool)
Dancin` Fool.
I`m a Dancin` Fool
(Dancin` fool)
Dancin` Fool
When the beat goes on I`m so wrong. Beat goes on and I`m so wrong. Beat goes on and I`m so wrong.
The beat goes on and I`m so wrong, The beat goes on and I`m so wrong, The beat goes on and I`m so wrong, The beat goes on and I`m so wrong!
I may be totally wrong but I`m a,
Dancin Fool
I may be totally wrong but I`m a,
Dancin` Fool
(Yowza, Yowza, Yowza)
I got it all together now,
My very own disco flow, hey hey,
My shirts half open, to show you my chains, and the spoofer up my nose.
I am really something,
Thats what you`de probably say,
So smoke your little smoke, Drink your little drink, While I dance the night away!
(Chorus)
I`m a Dancin` Fool.
I`m a Dancin` Fool.
I`m a Dancin` Fool.
I`m a Dancin` Fool.
He`s a Dancin` Fool
I may be totally wrong but I`m a,
(Music)
I may be totally wrong but I`m a,
(Music)
I may be totally wrong but I`m a,
(Music)
I may be totally wrong but I`m a, FOOL! ya.
(hey darlin can I buy ya a couple a drinks???)
