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, 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, 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 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, 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, 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, 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, ay
And when you're done I'll make you do it all again
Ooh
Woah-oh, woah-oh, oh
Ooh
Ah ah, ah
They say
Dance for me, dance for me, dance for me, 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, 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, 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, ay
And when you're done I'll make you do it all again
All again
The lyrics to Tones and I's hit song "Dance Monkey" are about the singer's admiration for a person who catches her attention with their captivating dance moves. The song opens with the singer expressing her awe at the way the person "shines" and asking them to hold her hand. The singer is then moved to tears by their dance moves and begs to see them dance again. The chorus is a repetition of the request for the person to dance for her, with an assurance that they will be asked to dance again when they are done.
The second verse of the song switches the perspective to the singer, who likens herself to a monkey that has been dancing her whole life. She is also moved by the person's dance moves and asks them to make her dance again. The chorus is repeated twice more, emphasizing the request for the person to dance and the promise that they will be asked to dance again. The song ends with an instrumental interlude and a final repetition of the chorus.
Overall, "Dance Monkey" is a song about the power and beauty of dance and the way it can captivate and move people. It is also a tribute to those who have a natural talent for dancing and the way they can inspire and delight others with their artistry.
