The Devil’s Takin’ Names

Shall we dance? Or maybe just limp around?
These feet are cold and beat, and strangers to the ground.

The sound of the kick is arousing
The couples are sweet in their love
Tonight we'll stagger up from the basement
Or fall to our deaths from above.

You've got those moves and those eyes
I've got these shakes and bad breath

I've never tried that...
But I know I don't like it

Or, maybe I do and I'm just too weak to fight it
Where are you? Where are you?
I hate to let em see me crying.

I'm gonna zip on my party suit and show y'all something
There ain't no such thing as strumpin' for nothing
You can fly with us or hang on to the walls
But the devil's takin' names when the last curtain falls!

I got a deep sick worry and I don't know why!
Where are you? Where are you?
What are you doing tonight?
Laughing and crying are almost the same
You'll just show everyone how much attention you're paying

I've never tried that...
But I know I don't like it

Or, maybe I do and I'm just too weak to fight it
Where are you? Where are you?
I hate to let em see me crying.

So dry them eyes, everyone else went back inside.
Laughing and crying are almost the same
You'll just show everyone how much attention you're paying
