Dads Shouldn'T Dance

I danced the dance of the unrestrained,

It felt so good I danced again.

At my gyrations, ladies swooned

(well if not, they would do soon)

I did not care, for this was me

In wild abandon for all to see.

I was hip, I was the man

My dancing moves, they were just grand.

Then I saw my children's faces... 

Beetroot red, heads in hands.
