Lyrics
"Dancin' On the Edge"
© Lorrie Caplan/Lee Johnson
There's music playing, flashing lights
fashionista's with jeans too tight
glitter girls and day glow paint,
Versace, Prada, Chanel, Guerlain
she lives to put lipstick on, and lip sync to her favorite song
she see's him checkin' her out, says come on yo the time is now
Quit quit quit
Quit Dancing On the Edge, don't be wasting my time
ya can't be stuck in your head, if you wanna be mine
Quit dancing on the edge, come feel my heat
I'm burnin inside, and you can't ignore me
come on kiss me instead...quit dancin' on the edge!
Rooftop deck on a summer night
there's traffic noise and city lights
they step out in the warm thick air
she slurs "there all, half cut in there"
he fumbles with what words to say, sips his glass of chardonnay
she rubs herself against his chest, says "I think I know what's best
Chorus...then Bridge:
she says, "let's ignite, let's explode, like fireworks on overload
it's crankin' up, its getting hot, won't cha show me what you've got
Chorus w breakdowns, the big, then vamps out
