[00:10.856]"Dance for me," someone said
[00:16.041]Emily shakes her head
[00:21.451]Knowingly, gracefully
[00:26.930]Emily would begin
[00:31.775]She was a late bloomer, from Penny to Janet in a blink
[00:34.889]Dreamt 'bout being Josephine Baker in the mink
[00:37.726]Gold make-up like the Sphinx
[00:39.485]Skin made to view
[00:40.868]Body ornament, performances sensational
[00:43.353]From rhythm relation to titillation through
[00:46.261]Demonstrations of what she's made to do
[00:49.048]She always told me that she wanted to dance
[00:50.967]The only time she felt worthy of romance, damn
[00:54.460]I tried to told her she was worthy a chance
[00:56.606]But it's hard to talk to somebody in a trance
[00:59.425]I just gave her a glance, enough to sang her blues
[01:02.386]Be Pablo to paint her moves, be Langston to name her hues
[01:05.339]"Emily dance for me," someone said, she curtsied and turned her head
[01:10.315]She posed, with knowledge and grace she gave us a taste
[01:13.014]With a look on her face that could be taken for dead
[01:15.948]"Dance for me," someone said
[01:21.366]Emily shakes her head
[01:26.701]Knowingly, gracefully
[01:32.174]Emily would begin
[01:37.841]Are we crazy, deranged, to stand up for some change?
[01:40.463]Dreams turn to schemes, which marionette pulls your strings?
[01:43.691]Emily's enemy was Emily, feelin' me?
[01:45.855]She only lusted the heel-toe kick to the symphony
[01:48.581]And now she justified, cryin' rivers for sympathy
[01:51.301]Which in end she finds out is simply misery
[01:53.971]No mystery, her OnStar on destiny's roads
[01:56.542]Ballerina wardrobe glowin' under the strobe
[01:59.245]Twirlin' amongst dollars waitin' under the pole
[02:01.821]For a slightly possible goal sometimes we sell out our soul
[02:04.596]Can't help that, errrbody done felt that
[02:07.431]Just ask your favorite artist whose heart has turned to pitch black
[02:10.501]Ask some of these stars where they lost they sense of self at
[02:13.546]Strictly being puppets in public is a setback
[02:16.019]Yeah fam, that's Emily's energy
[02:18.357]Errrbody's a dancer, I don't view you no differently, so dance
[02:21.776]"Dance for me," someone said
[02:26.704]Emily shakes her head
[02:32.226]Knowingly, gracefully
[02:37.608]Emily, she begins
[02:44.545]She makes it rain with her tears
[02:49.806]She makes it rain with her tears
[02:55.281]She makes it rain with her tears
[03:00.705]She makes it rain with her tears
[03:06.236]She makes it rain with her tears
[03:11.419]She makes it rain with her tears
[03:17.182]
