Dance Me Outside (Live) Lyrics by Craig Cardiff

Easter Eggs

2007

[Verse 1]
This Indian girl walks out into traffic
And the traffic stops then, and she's causing havoc and baby won't you
Roll up the windows dial up on the cellphones
And get the cops to get out here
I just want to get home
[Verse 2]
And they say, “Excuse me, little miss I’m afraid, I’m afraid”
She says, "Well, do you, oh and, do you remember all the buffalo?"
And all the dumb white people say, "Do you mean: Neil Young Springfield?"
But she says, "No"
But Cleveland ain’t the home of Indians
And not even Eskimos it feels like you just don't want to know
[Chorus]
"Take me around, dance mе outside
Show me a place whеre we might hide
And, what I want I'm afraid that you can't afford to buy"
[Verse 3]
This Indian girl
Spinning like a toy top
And her hair spreads out like fire and it's like she just can't stop
And then the cops come
Donut guard state car
Rolling up along the sides
Fire lanterns burning
The sirens opened wide and they say
[Verse 4]
"Excuse me little miss I'm afraid it's time to take this home"
And they try to get her address
She says, "Sorry I don't got none; it's only me and these feeding fields
Oh, and look where you are"
And they try to get out of the way
And on go the cars
[Chorus]
They say, "Take me around, dance me outside
Show me a place where we might hide
What I want I'm afraid that you, you can't afford to buy"
[Chorus]
"Take me around, dance me outside
Show me a place where we might hide
What I want I'm afraid that you can't afford to buy
To buy”
[Verse 5]
This Indian girl
Thin, cold, and tired
Wouldn't mind some help then
But the cars go by it's no wonder why
'Cause all they want to do is go and get away
"All I wanna do, " she says, "Is get away from here"
[Verse 6]
So she builds a fire
And all through her belly
And through her hair and bones
And to remind her that she's alive she stares at in awe
She stares at in awe
[Chorus]
And she says, "Take me around, dance me outside
Show me a place where we might hide
What I want I'm afraid that you can't afford to buy"
[Chorus]
"Take me around, dance me outside
Show me a place where we might hide
What I want I'm afraid that you can't afford to buy"
[Ending]
Bruce and Diamond she says no and Juliette she says
Bruce and Diamond she says everything will be ok
And everything will be ok
And everything will be ok
