Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take your hand, my dear, and place them both in mine
You know you stopped me dead while I was passing by
And now I beg to see you dance just one more time
Ooh, I see you, see you, see you every time
And oh my I, I, I like your style
You, you make me, make me, make me wanna cry
So they say
"Dance for me, dance for me, dance for me, oh-oh
I've never seen anybody do the things you do before"
They say, "Move for me, move for me, move for me, ay-ay
And when you're done, I'll make you do it all again"
I said, "Oh my God I see you walking by
Take my hands, my dear, and look me in my eyes"
Just like a monkey, I've been dancing my whole life
But you just beg to see me dance just one more time
Ooh, I see you, see you, see you every time
And oh my I, I, I like your style
You, you make me, make me, make me wanna cry
And now I beg to see you dance just one more time
So they say
"Dance for me, dance for me, dance for me, oh-oh
I've never seen anybody do the things you do before"
They say, "Move for me, move for me, move for me, ay-ay
And when you're done, I'll make you do it all again"
They say
"Dance for me, dance for me, dance for me, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
I've never seen anybody do the things you do before"
They say, "Move for me, move for me, move for me, ay-ay
And when you're done, I'll make you do it all again"
Ooh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, oh
Ooh
Ah, ah, ah
They say
"Dance for me, dance for me, dance for me, oh-oh
I've never seen anybody do the things you do before
They say, "Move for me, move for me, move for me, ay-ay
And when you're done, I'll make you do it all again"
They say
"Dance for me, dance for me, dance for me, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
I've never seen anybody do the things you do before"
They say, "Move for me, move for me, move for me, ay-ay
And when you're done, I'll make you do it all again
All again"
The lyrics of "Dance Monkey" by Tone and I describe the singer's fascination with someone who catches her eye with their dance moves. The opening lines, "oh my God I see the way you shine, take your hand, my dear, and place them both in mine," depict her excitement at meeting the person, while the following line, "you know you stopped me dead while I was passing by," suggests that this encounter had a deep impact on her.
In the chorus, the singer implores the person to dance for her, as their moves are so mesmerizing that she could watch them over and over again. She states, "I've never seen anybody do the things you do before," highlighting the uniqueness of their style. The repetition of the phrase "dance for me" emphasizes the singer's relentless desire to witness their dance once again.
The verse where the singer refers to herself, "just like a monkey I've been dancing my whole life, but you just beg to see me dance just one more time," suggests that she feels inadequate in comparison to the person's dancing skills. Overall, the song captures the infectious energy and enthusiasm of the person's dance.
