Lyrics

Oh I know that she
Has mad 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

No dancing
There's gonna be no dancing
There's gonna be no dancing on my own

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 her brother's not so easy to please
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 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 know you see
How can it be?
Why can't you give me anythin' but sympathy?"
There's gonna be no dancing when they get home

No dancing
There's gonna be no dancing
There's gonna be no dancing on my own
