Don't Ever Watch Me Dancing
Little Joy Lyrics
Margarita has a strange appeal
sways between suitors on a broke heel
Of course her desires they always mistook
Shed rather be scarred than be scarred with love
In conversation shed often contend
Customs builds customs that evolve dead-ends
If she found her courage in a change of scene
The sunday social would be short it's queen
All her best years spent distracted
With the right step
she would try her chances
Somewhere else
There he is a step outside her view
Reciting the words he hope she might pursue
Night upon night of faithful eye at shore
If only hed convince his legs across the floor
"Please don't watch me dancing
oh no don't watch me dancing"
Something changes when she glances
Enough to teach you what romance is
With the right step
they would try their chances
Somewhere else
Please don't watch me dancing
don't watch me dancing
Please don't watch me dancing
don't watch me dancing

Little Joy is formed by Binki Shapiro, Rodrigo Amarante and Fabrizio Moretti, three friends who dropped their routine at their respective hometowns to make a record in Los Angeles, California in 2007.
Through a chance encounter at a Portuguese festival in Lisbon, where both Amarante (Singer/Guitarist of Los Hermanos) and Moretti (drummer of The Strokes) had performed, the two chatted well through the night and into the morning by the side of the river Read Full BioLittle Joy is formed by Binki Shapiro, Rodrigo Amarante and Fabrizio Moretti, three friends who dropped their routine at their respective hometowns to make a record in Los Angeles, California in 2007.
Through a chance encounter at a Portuguese festival in Lisbon, where both Amarante (Singer/Guitarist of Los Hermanos) and Moretti (drummer of The Strokes) had performed, the two chatted well through the night and into the morning by the side of the river, humoring the idea of working together on music that had no affiliation to their particular bands.
A year later, Amarante traveled to the United States to record with Devendra Banhart on his Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon album. On the off hours of an arduous recording process, Amarante would meet with Moretti to discuss anything but music.
Binki Shapiro, musician and native of Los Angeles, was introduced to the pair through mutual acquaintances and became a fast friend, encouraging the two to focus on the music they had spoken of long before. Through the process of late night “show-and-tell” the three developed and arranged songs Moretti had begun and soon after started writing original music for the group as a band.
A couple of months later they all moved into a house in Echo Park to demo songs and soon after, with the help of producer Noah Georgeson, who had recorded Banhart’s album, they finished their self-titled debut, Little Joy, named after the cocktail lounge just down the street from their home.
Little Joy was released worldwide by Rough Trade Records, a division of The Beggar’s Group, on Nov. 4th, 2008.

What is with the "loathe" line? I think these are the lyrics:
Margarita has a strange appeal
sways between suitors on a broken heel
Of course her desires they always mistook
She'd rather have been scarred than be scarred with looks
In conversation she'd often contend
Costumes build customs that involve dead-ends
If she found her courage in a change of scene
This Sunday's social would be short its queen
All her best years spent distracted
By these tired re-enactments
With the right step
she would try her chances
Somewhere else
There he is a step outside her view
Reciting the words he hopes she might pursue
Night upon night a faithful light at shore
If he'd only convince his legs across the floor
"Please don't watch me dancing
oh no don't watch me dancing"
Something changes when she glances
Enough to teach you what romance is
With the right step
they would try their chances
Somewhere else
Please don't watch me dancing
don't watch me dancing
Please don't watch me dancing
don't watch me dancing

Margarita has a strange appeal
Sways between suitors on a broken heel
Of course her desires they always mistook
She'd rather've been scarred than be scarred with loathe
In conversation she often contends
Costumes build customs that involve dead ends
She found her courage in a change of scene
This Sunday's social would be short its queen
All her best years spent distracted
By these tired reenactments
With the right step she'll try her chances
Somewhere else
There he is a step outside her view
Reciting the words he hoped she might pursue
Night upon night a faithful light at shore
If he'd only convince his legs across the floor
Please, don't watch me dancing
Oh no, don't watch me dancing
Something changes when she glances
Enough to teach you what romance is
With the right step they try their chances

Please, don't watch me dancing
Don't watch me dancing
Please, don't watch me dancing (don't watch me dancing, don't watch me dancing)
Don't watch me dancing (don't watch me dancing)
Please, don't watch me dancing (don't watch me dancing, don't watch me dancing)
Don't watch me dancing (don't watch me dancing, don't watch me dancing)
Don't watch me dancing (don't watch me dancing, don't watch me dancing)
Don't watch me dancing (don't watch me dancing, don't watch me dancing)
