Dance Band Lyrics by XTC

White Music

1977

[Verse 1]
Watch them go, one, two, three
I'm so happy and so is she
In a dance band

[Verse 2]
Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow
Heel to heel and toe to toe
In a dance band

[Chorus]
You can do the bossa nova
'Till the night is through
You know Gay Gordon
You can meet him too
But when you hear that tune
One and one make two
Don't step on my toes
Don't step on my toes
Let's go

[Verse 1]
Watch them go, one, two, three
I'm so happy and so is she
In a dance band

[Verse 2]
Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow
Heel to heel and toe to toe
In a dance band

[Chorus]
You can do the bossa nova
'Till the night is through
You know Gay Gordon
You can meet him too
But when you hear that tune
One and one make two
Don't step on my toes
Don't step on my toes

[Chorus]
You can do the bossa nova
'Till the night is through
You know Gay Gordon
You can meet him too
But when you hear that tune
One and one make two
Don't step on my toes
Don't step on my toes

[Outro]
I'm in a dance band
I like a dance band
I'm in a dance band
I like a dance band
Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow
Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow
Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow
Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow
Quick, quick
