Little Joy

Don’t Watch Me Dancing



Lyrics

Margherita has a strange appeal
Sways between suitors on a broken heel
Of course her desires they always mistook
She'd rather have been scarred than be scarred with looks

In conversation she'd often contends
Costumes build customs that evolve dead ends
If she found her courage in a change of scene
This Sunday social would be short its queen

All her best years spent distracted
By these tired re-enactments
With the right step she woud try her chances
Somewhere else

There he is a step outside her view
Reciting the words he hoped she might pursue
Night upon night a faithful eye at shore
If he'd only convince his legs across the floor

Please, don't watch me dancing
Oh no, don't watch me dancing

Something changes when she glances
Enough to teach you what romance is
With the right step she would try her chances
Somewhere else

(Repeat)
Please, don't watch me dancing
Don't watch me dancing
