Thanks for the dance I'm sorry you're tired The evening has hardly begun Thanks for the dance Try to look inspired One two three, one two three one
There's a rose in my hair My shoulders are bare I've been wearing this costume Forever Turn up the music Pour out the wine Stop at the surface The surface is fine We don't need to go any deeper
Thanks for the dance I hear that we're married One two three, one two three one Thanks for the dance And the baby I carried It was almost a daughter or a son
And there's nothing to do But to wonder if you Are as hopeless as me And as decent
We're joined in the spirit Joined at the hip Joined in the panic Wondering if We've come to some sort Of agreement
It was fine it was fast I was first I was last In line at the Temple of Pleasure But the green was so green And the blue was so blue I was so I And you were so you The crisis was light As a feather
Thanks for the dance It was hell, it was swell It was fun Thanks for all the dances One two three, one two three on
