|
I see you in the corner starin' in space |
|
Actin' like you're groovin' with the look upon your face |
|
I see you smilin' at me, you want to know my name |
|
But if you wanna play, boy, you got to play my game |
|
What I really want to know |
|
Is can you dance |
|
You're talkin' to your friends about how good I look |
|
Try to find a number always in the book |
|
Before you come up to me to tell me how you feel |
|
I'm wiser than my years, so let me tell you what's the deal |
|
What I really want to know |
|
Is can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
Baby, tell me can you dance |
|
I just wanna party, that's what I'm here to do |
|
I didn't come through to pick up by the likes of you |
|
I'll give you a chance and one is all you get |
|
If you think I'm sassy now, boy, you ain't seen nothin' yet |
|
What I really want to know |
|
Is can you dance |
|
What I really want to know |
|
Is can you dance, uh |
|
Can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
Baby, tell me can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
Baby, tell me can you dance |
|
I see you groovin' hearty |
|
Looks like you're havin' fun |
|
But if you came to party |
|
Start dancin' on the one, get up |
|
If your dance is nothin' |
|
You don't need to be here |
|
It ain't about the posin' |
|
But the sexy atmosphere, get with it |
|
You've got to start a fire |
|
If you want to put one out |
|
It's the groove that takes you higher |
|
That's what dance is all about |
|
Now I'm a busy person |
|
No time for playin' games |
|
But if I know you're serious |
|
I'll tell you what's my name, Shanice |
|
Can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
Whoa, can you dance |
|
Tell me, tell me, tell me can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
|
(Tell me can you) |
|
Can you dance |
|
(Dance) |
|
Can you dance |
|
Can you dance |
