It Wasnt My Idea to Dance — текст песни (Electric Light Orchestra)

The people throwing pennies in my soup

Expecting me to be ashamed of you

Now my needs are growing and Im groping round

I am really groping round



We didnt break until the morning

One dramatic glance

Now its too late to want your freedom

It wasnt my idea to dance



The prince of thunder gave his warning speech

His talons dared to grasp you from my reach

Once again you clutch me to your warming breast

Now I lay me down to rest



We didnt break until the morning

One dramatic glance

Now its too late to want your freedom

It wasnt my idea to dance



As dawn is nearing

Im hearing tearful music



So I have given you the will to weep

For now youre at your last and final peak

Dangerously the past it explodes about by ears

Loudly ringing through my ears



We didnt break until the morning

One dramatic glance

Now its too late to want your freedom



It wasnt my idea to dance

It wasnt my idea to dance
