lyrics
You’re not too cool to dance
No, you’re not too cool to dance
You say you’ve never danced before, you’re acting like you own the floor
Just what is all this fronting for, I know you’re gonna beg for more
You think I’m really into you, well I won’t lie, I guess it’s true
Ya kinda just don’t have a clue, dance with me or I’ll leave you blue
Well, I don’t even know your name
Well, I don’t have much shame
I’m having fun, but I don’t know, I just want you to run the show
Relax and let your body go, the time has come to make it flow
I think I see what’s going on, we’ll dance until the break of dawn
Well, it can start with just one song, but it’s a craze I’d like to spawn
Well, I don’t even know your name
And, I don’t have much shame
You’re not too cool to dance, No, you’re not too cool to dance
I’m having fun, but I don’t know, I just want you to run the show
Relax and let your body go, the time has come to make it flow
I think I see what’s going on, we’ll dance until the break of dawn
Well, it can start with just one song, but it’s a craze I’d like to spawn
Well, I don’t even know your name
And, I don’t have much shame
Well, I don’t even know your name dear……………………………………….
And, I don’t have much shame dear……………………………………………..
You’re not too cool to dance, No, you’re not too cool to dance……….
No, you’re not too cool to dance
You say you’ve never danced before, you’re acting like you own the floor
Just what is all this fronting for, I know you’re gonna beg for more
You think I’m really into you, well I won’t lie, I guess it’s true
Ya kinda just don’t have a clue, dance with me or I’ll leave you blue
Well, I don’t even know your name
Well, I don’t have much shame
I’m having fun, but I don’t know, I just want you to run the show
Relax and let your body go, the time has come to make it flow
I think I see what’s going on, we’ll dance until the break of dawn
Well, it can start with just one song, but it’s a craze I’d like to spawn
Well, I don’t even know your name
And, I don’t have much shame
You’re not too cool to dance, No, you’re not too cool to dance
I’m having fun, but I don’t know, I just want you to run the show
Relax and let your body go, the time has come to make it flow
I think I see what’s going on, we’ll dance until the break of dawn
Well, it can start with just one song, but it’s a craze I’d like to spawn
Well, I don’t even know your name
And, I don’t have much shame
Well, I don’t even know your name dear……………………………………….
And, I don’t have much shame dear……………………………………………..
You’re not too cool to dance, No, you’re not too cool to dance……….

With a timeless showmanship and knack for comedic timing, this two-person outfit is guaranteed to start a full-on dance party with or without you.” – Shawn Petsche, Sled Island Music Festival Promoter ... more
