lyrics

Move your back foot
Then the other one
Twirl until the music’s done

You can trust me,
One-two-three, one-two-three
But we’ve just begun

Now dance through my doorway like some private matinee
I’ve got some orders that I’d like to disobey
Our voices soaked in cigarettes and cabernet
I’ve got some baggage that I like to hide away

See my left eye
Then the other one
Tell me just what we’ve begun

With wine and whiskey,
A nominee wannabe
Who’s not fooling anyone

Now dance through my doorway like some private matinee
I’ve got some orders that I’d like to disobey
Our voices soaked in cigarettes and cabernet
I’ve got some baggage that I like to hide away

Move your back foot
Then the other one
Twirl until I am undone

Count it with me
One-two-three, one-two-three
Play our song for everyone

Now dance through my doorway like some private matinee
I’ve got some orders that I’d like to disobey
Our voices soaked in cigarettes and cabernet
I’ve got some baggage that I like to hide away
Why won’t you call me back, afraid I’ll disagree
With all of your idiotic choreography?
I’ll take the afternoon; I’ll plant your Judas tree
You come whenever you think I should be set free
