I Can't Dance
Genesis - Phil Collins Lyrics

Hot sun beating down
Burning my feet just walking around
Hot sun makin' me sweat
Gators getting close, hasn't got me yet

I can't dance
I can't talk
Only thing about me is the way I walk
I can't dance
I can't sing

I'm just standing here selling everything

Blue jeans sittin' on the beach
Her dog's talking to me, but she's out of reach
Mhm, she's got a body under that shirt
But all she wants to do is rub my face in the dirt

'Cause I can't dance
I can't talk
Only thing about me is the way I walk
I can't dance
I can't sing
I'm just standing here sellin'

Oh, and checking everything is in place
You never know who's lookin' on

Young punk spillin' beer on my shoes
Fat guy's talkin' to me, tryin' to steal my blues
Thick smoke, see her smiling through
I never thought so much could happen just shootin' pool

But I can't dance
I can't talk
The only thing about me is the way that I walk
I can't dance
I can't sing
I'm just standing here sellin'

Oh, and checking everything is in place
You never know who's looking on
A perfect body with a perfect face
Mhm

No, I can't dance
I can't talk
The only thing about me is the way I walk
No, I can't dance
I can't sing
I'm just standing here sellin' everything

No, I can't walk
No, I can't dance
No, no, no, I can't dance
No, I said, I can't sing

Lyrics
Hot sun beating down
Burning my feet just walking around.
Hot sun making me sweat
'Gators getting close, hasn't got me yet
I can't dance, I can't talk.
The only thing about me is the way I walk.
I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling everything.
Blue jeans sitting on the beach,
Her dog's talking to me, but she's out of reach.
She's got a body under that shirt,
But all she wants to do is rub my face in the dirt.
Cause, I can't dance, I can't talk.
The only thing about me is the way I walk.
No, I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling.
And checking everything is in place,
You never know who's looking on.
Young punk spilling beer on my shoes,
Fat guy's talking to me trying to steal my blues.
Thick smoke, see her smiling through.
I never thought so much could happen just shooting pool.
But I can't dance, I can't talk.
The only thing about me is the way I walk.
I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling
And checking everything is in place
You never know who's looking on
A perfect body with a perfect face

Crazy to think this is the same guy that gave us the Tarzan soundtrack, that sick drum fill in “in the air tonight”, plus the song it’s self is pretty good, the greatest cover of the “can’t hurry love” by the supremes ever made, and of course, his best work: genesis. Phil Collins has so much range that if he made a metal band or started a rap career in 2022 and it was amazing none of us would be surprised

The band performed six jazz renditions of songs Genesis and his solo career. His sixth solo album Dance into the Light was released in October 1996. Now Phil Collins due to the fact a lot of people thought he was dead rejoined with Genesis and is now doing a tour for old times sake.

😆 I just realized I am 40 and never went to any dances as a kid in school. Probably, "because I don't Dance". Grew up wanting to be as cool as this man here. 😘

Phil Collins is still great in 2022, and his lyrical satire of the "supermodel" phenomenon in the 90s is still dryly humorous.

Phil Collins always made fun music videos with Genesis and in his solo career. I Can't Dance is probably the most amusing video Genesis made.

Peter Gabriel was one of the orgional singer's but I didn't listen to Genesis then.but I love Phil Collins.

@TheRabidPosum

Sarah Gregory Peter Gabriel was the ONLY original singer and one of the founding members. Phil Collins wasn't even the original drummer, he joined in 1970 around the same time as Steve Hackett. I was born in 80 so the Gabriel era was before my time. I grew up with Phil Collins Genesis and solo but I never liked it. I discovered the Gabriel era in my 20's so I went backwards. Still one of my favorites. I like rock from every decade. I would rather listen to Black Veil Brides and Greta Van Fleet from today over Phil Collins Genesis, so the year it came out is really irrelevant to me, it's the quality of music.

@curvy71

I'm still a Phil Collins fan.i still like him with Genesis/solo.

@TheRabidPosum

Sarah Gregory so you like simple more pop structure music as apposed to more complex songwriting and musical arrangements like Supper's Ready, The Musical Box, and Dancing With The Moonlit Knight. Nothing wrong with that I guess, to each his own. I like some simple rock like Jumping Jack Flash and Whole Lotta Love, but I never got into pop music.

Have you gone back to the genesis of Genesis yet? When Peter Gabriel was the lead singer and Phil the drummer? Then Peter’s solo stuff after he left Genesis, and Phil so more than ably took over the singing as well as the drumming?

@@brayleeclark5593 that’s cool! I just wasn’t sure if you had heard the earlier Genesis albums too. Phil Collins was an integral member of Genesis then too. So that’s still Phil Collins, and The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is really a must have album.
