DANCES ARE SQUARE
DANCES ARE SQUARE
There are some dances where different people meet
Exchanging partners enhances the social opportunity
When one glances at another, it makes it all complete
Whether old-fashioned such as the cotillion or quadrille
There’s only one in a million who dances with impunity
As these days, perhaps a civilian or maybe military still
Sword and morris dancing are old and seen as outdated
But as dance steps gradually unfold it does require unity
And bold but ageing onlookers wish they hadn’t waited
