I Just Wanna Dance

The Flash of my eyes
Does nothing to arise
An element of surprise
Or even evoke
Delectable daydreams
In the sweat streaming down your backside
All I can do is keep
Pumping the beat for what it's worth
Once the throbbing drips
And these wicked beads of perspiration
Salty sweet
Implores me to lick my lips
Boo, I just got to work you
I'm pulling out all the stops

I cannot notice you
Noticing me
Making you notice
Because once the 8 track
Abandons all thoughts of sustaining
My virtue
Brilliantly lights
The carnal urge
To surge and purge
This wicked temptation
Urge, surge, and purge me
I am completely yours
I managed to be
Inadequately dressed for the occasion 
But baby it's just a dance
If I let the earth shake and I thoughtlessly
Separate
Then I must've left my respect by the door

Harmless caresses will only hurt you more
I promise nothing
Something
Isn't what I am looking for
If I push up hard and slow
Will you pursue the flow
And let it go 
Inspired soloist I am
In complete command
I don't need to know your name
When you came, or your wallet size
Once the music starts
It's only you and I on the floor
Tantalizing friction, and nothing more
