"Shut Up and Dance" Lyrics

"Shut Up and Dance" Lyrics

A Poem by Cecilia Ting

Turn your head

Up around my way

See the look in my eyes

Know the things they say

Sure, you look so fine

Standing ‘gainst the wall

Drink in hand

Lookin’ cool with the guys and all

 

But what you want

And what you really need

Is to be dancing up a storm with me

Don’t waste the night

We can hit daylight

Head on over here

I’ll make you feel alright

 

I don’t want to hear

Your excuses now

Just move with me

With this music so loud (ohh)

Hurry on over

Or you’ll miss your chance

Why you waiting, boy?

 Now just shut up and dance

 

I saw you walk in through the door

I couldn’t breathe no more

Had to get you to the floor

Never felt this way before

Need your face right next to mine

Feel like I’m out of my mind

Vibrations running high

Can you feel it now?

 

If you want, we can slow it down, slow it down down

Or if you’d like, we can speed it up, all the way up

I got no problem, I can go either way

Just get down with me this evening until night turns to day

 

I don’t want to hear

Your excuses now

Just move with me

With this music so loud (ohh)

Hurry on over

Or you’ll miss your chance

Why you waiting, boy?

 Now just shut up and dance

 

Don’t refuse it

Baby, feel the music

Rhythm, beat, and flow

Come on, let’s go

 

Don’t go pretend that you’re shy

I can see through such a lie

It’s useless to deny

Baby, please don’t try to

Stop

 

I don’t want to hear

Your excuses now

Just move with me

With this music so loud (ohh)

Hurry on over

Or you’ll miss your chance

Why you waiting, boy?

 Now just shut up and dance

 

Don’t refuse it

Baby, feel the music

Rhythm, beat, and flow

Come on, let’s go

 

Up and down, lights spinning around

Left or right, raise my arms tonight

Moving my feet, up to you to complete

Just get down with me this evening,

 DJ, turn up the beat

 

If you want, we can slow it down, slow it down down

Or if you’d like, we can speed it up, all the way up

I got no problem, I can go either way

Just get down with me this evening until night turns to day

 

I don’t want to hear

Your excuses now

Just move with me

With this music so loud (ohh)

Hurry on over

Or you’ll miss your chance

Why you waiting, boy?

 Now just shut up and dance

 

Don’t refuse it

Baby, feel the music

Rhythm, beat, and flow

Come on, let’s go
