Dancing Machine

Letter Seventeen

I grew up in the 80’s. Can you tell?

Em7 - Bm7 - Am7 - Bm7

Heading out on the floor
Act like you’ve been here before
Eyes are watching from all around
To see what’s up with the new kid in town
Is it true that he has all the moves?
Even the ones good enough for you?
Break away into the scene
Makes you wonder where he’s been

Am7 - Bm7 - Em7
I wanna be your dancing machine
So save the last dance for me
Your one and only dancing machine
Save that last dance for me

Move in circles around the floor
Makes you wonder what’s in store
Eyes watch from all around
They’re all watching this new kid in town
But his eyes are only for you
And he claims his aim to be true
He begins to move your way
And you know you have to stay

I wanna be your dancing machine
So save the last dance for me
Your one and only dancing machine
Save that last dance for me

Dm7 - Dbm7 - Cm7 (x3) Dm7 on last line
And he moves closer still
His moves are strong, closer still
And he steps up next to you
And you know what you have to do

Together now on the floor
Just like so many times before
Move together perfectly
Just like it’s supposed to be
They all think he’s the new kid in town
But you remember last time he came round
And this time he won’t get away
This time he’s come back to stay

I wanna be your dancing machine
So save the last dance for me
Your one and only dancing machine
Save that last dance for me
I wanna be your dancing machine
So save the last dance for me
Your one and only dancing machine
Just like Gene-Gene
