1. The Magnetic Fields, "With Whom to Dance"
The rest of life pales in significance
I'm looking for somebody with whom to dance2. Richard Thompson, "Back Street Slide"
The backstreet slide, the backstreet slide
They're gonna get you, dead or alive
Stab you in the back with a kitchen knife
Doing the backstreet slide
Do it all day, the backstreet slide3. Tim Curry, "I Do The Rock"
Me, I do the only thing that still
makes sense to me
I do the Rock4. Tom Lehrer, "The Masochism Tango"
My heart entreats,
Just hear those savage beats,
And go put on your cleats
And come and trample me5. The Magnetic Fields, "Dancing In Your Eyes"
When we walk hand in hand in the rain
When we're young and in love once again
We will dance in the autumn with the leaves in our hair
When I look I'll be dancing in your eyes6. Richard Thompson, "Waltzing's for Dreamers"
One step for aching, and two steps for breaking
Waltzing's for dreamers and losers in love
One step for sighing and two steps for crying
Waltzing's for dreamers and losers in love7. Groovie Ghouls, "The Time Warp"
I remember doing the TIme Warp
Drinking those moments when
The blackness would hit me and the void would be calling
Let's do the time warp again8. Richard Thompson, "Razor Dance"
Cruelest dance is the razor dance
Circle in and circle around
He said, she said, she said, he said
Thrill to put the other one down
The razor dance9. The Magnetic Fields, "The Sun Goes Down and the World Goes Dancing"
I can't imagine why but I feel like dancing
And there is nothing in this world
That I'd like better than a twirl across your rickety old floor10. Little Nell, "Do the Swim"
Move your arms and kick your feet
Do a dog paddle to the squishy beat
Wave your hands up very high
And start to do some butterflies11. Stephin Merritt, "Fan Dance Cha-Cha"
if you ever do the cha-cha-cha
you'll forever do the cha-cha-cha
if you never do the cha-cha-cha
you'll have lived without really dancing12. Steeleye Span, "Shaking of the Sheets"
Dance, dance the shaking of the sheets
Dance, dance when you hear the piper
Playing, everyone must dance
The Shaking Of The Sheets with me13. The Magnetic Fields, "Nothing Matters When We're Dancing"
Dance with me my old friend
once before we go
Let's pretend this song won't end
and we never have to go home Zip of all songs and cover art
