No Dancing

Oh I know that she
 Has made a fool of him
 Like girls have done so many nights before
 Time and time again
 Life is so strange
 I don't know why
 But somebody, somebody has to cry
 There's gonna be no dancing when they get home
 There's gonna be no dancing
 There's gonna be no dancing
 There's gonna be no dancing when they get home
 Now he's telling her
 Every little thing he's done
 Once he glanced at the jackets of some paperbacks
 Now he's read every one
 He's such a drag
 He's not insane
 It's just that everybody
 Has to feel his pain
 There's gonna be no dancing when they get home
 He's getting down on his knees
 He finds that the girl is not so easy to please
 Oh oh, after all, his nights were just a paper striptease
 She's caught it like some disease
 If he says no dancing
 There's gonna be no dancing
 There's gonna be no dancing on my own
 She can't even speak to him
 He can't face her now
 He says "Even though I wanna shake your hand
 All I ever do is bow.
 So now you see
 How can it be.
 Why can't you give me anythin' but sympathy?"
 There's gonna be no dancing
 There's gonna be no dancing
 There's gonna be no dancing
 There's gonna be no dancing
 There's gonna be no dancing on my own
