Lyrics
Shut Up and Dance
(1st Verse)
All night long you've been talkin' it up , and I like the words I hear
You got the gift of gab, and you make me laugh
You're sexy as can be
So many guys they gimme lip service, think that's all they got to do
(Prechorus)
So now I've heard you talk the talk, oh yeah
I wanna see you walk the walk
(CHORUS)
Shut up and dance, I'll give you a chance
To show what you can do
Shut up and dance, I'm looking for romance
Wanna make a man of you
Shut up and move, got something to prove
If you want a girl like me
Don't get me wrong I dig your sweet talking
But I need to feel that body rockin' next to me
(2nd Verse)
You're telling me you got all the right moves, say you dance like Michael J.
Well put your money where your mouth is, sugar
Prove me what you say
I need a man who will shake it up, who'll seduce me on the floor
(Prechorus + Chorus)
(Break)
Dance! Shut up and dance! Dance! Dance!
(Prechorus/CHORUS)
Shut up and dance, I'll give you a chance, to show what you can do
Shut up and dance, I'm looking for romance
Wanna make a man, m-make a man of you
Shut up and move, got something to prove, if you want a girl like me
Don't get me wrong I dig your sweet talking
But I need to feel that body next to me
Shut up and dance, I'll give you a chance
Shut up and dance, I'm looking for romance
Wanna make sweet romance with you
Shut up and move got something to prove, if you want a girl like me, yeah
Shut up and dance with me
Dance! Dance! Dance! Shut up and dance!
Shut up, shut up, and dance!
