LYRICS

Don’t want to hear about your heartache
Don’t wanna hear about your bad break
Don’t really care who didn’t love you
Just give us something we can dance to

I can see your heart is bleeding
But you ain’t givin’ what we’re needing
You want the crowd to really dig you
Then give us something we can dance to

I respect that you are playin’
But you ain’t hearing what we’re saying
You ain’t the only one who’s been blue
Now give us something we can dance to

Something we can dance to
Something we can move to
Everybody’s tired of grieving
Won’t you give me some relieving
Let me get down on the floor
Till we’re done and got no more… I said, Hey!

Don’t need your deep and darkened secrets
I got enough that I’ve been keepin’
All I really need from you
Is just something I can dance to

Something we can dance to
Something we can move to
Everybody’s tired of grieving
Won’t you give me some relieving
Let me get down on the floor
Till we’re done and got no more… I said, Hey!
