I see ya standing on the corner of the dance floor
I see ya standing on the corner of the dance floor
I see ya standing on the corner of the dance floor

[Repeat: x20]
Dance floor

I see ya standing on the corner of the dance floor

And the way you look is oh so fine
But there's a problem 'cause that isn't what you came for
You ain't gonna get away tonight
So I'm gonna be the one to step to you get you in the mood just dance all night
Don't let suspicion, inhibitions get the better of you 'cause you know the mood is right
Shake you body uptown stomp your feet and spin around
Let the rhythm take control as the beat is takin' over your soul
Let the rhythm take control as the beat is takin' over your soul

I see ya standing on the corner of the dance floor

I see you crack it tryna' pack it but you can't find
Rhythm that you hunt to feel the vibe
Movin' your body to the rhythm of the baseline
So just let it go relax your mind
You ain't got to be afraid who's watchin' you if ya keen to leave your stress behind
You just got to handle business on the floor come on let your body bounce with mine
Shake you body uptown stoomp your feet and spin around
Let the rhythm take control as the beat is takin' over your soul
Shake you body uptown stoomp your feet and spin around
Let the rhythm take control as the beat is takin' over your soul

I see ya standing on the corner of the dance floor
