I Don't Wanna Dance
Lady Linn And Her Magnificent Seven Lyrics

The song "I Don't Wanna Dance" by Lady Linn And Her Magnificent Seven is a soulful and heartfelt ballad about a lover who is unable to enjoy dancing with their partner anymore. The lyrics describe a relationship where the singer still cares deeply for their partner, but has come to the realization that they can no longer dance with them due to a sense that it is causing harm, either to the partner or the relationship itself.

The first verse describes the tension between the singer's love for their partner and their desire to avoid dancing with them. The line "I'll never do something to hurt you, though" suggests that the singer is aware of the pain they may cause by refusing to dance, but is unable to deny the feeling of discomfort that has emerged. The chorus repeats the plea to avoid dancing, and emphasizes the feeling of wrongness that accompanies the desire to stop.

The second verse adds a new dimension to the relationship, describing how the singer is uncomfortable with the way their partner interacts with others. The line "Sometimes I think it's insanity girl the way you go" suggests that the partner is somehow acting inappropriately, whether by flirting or other means. The reference to "all the guys on the corner" and the fact that the partner is described as a "latest trick" implies that the relationship may be somewhat casual, or that the partner is not entirely faithful. Ultimately, the singer decides to end the relationship, with the line "now the party's over for us, so I'll be on my way" delivering the final blow.
