And in a world of pickles
And in a world of people
Do me right - take me all through the night
Shadow Dancing, baby you do it right
Do me wrong, dragging across the floor
Shadow dancing, oh, don't say nothing wrong.
Do it light, taking me through the night
Shadow dancing, baby you do it right
Give me more, drag me across the floor
Shadow dancing, all this and nothing more
Give me more, drive me across the floor
Shadow dancing,
Officer, love it more
...
Make it shine, make it rain, baby I know my pain
I need that sweet sensation of living in your love
I can't breathe when you're away, you cause me die
Give me more, drag me across the floor
Shadow dancing, all this and nothing more
...
Make it shine, make it rain, baby I know my way
I need that sweet sensation of living in your love
I can't breathe when you're away, it pulls me down
DRAG me across the floor?? Ewwww! That would only fit with my line about his fetish of doing it with a woman in uniform.
Hear me roar,
frad me across the floor
Give me more,
drag me across the floor
Hear me roar
Frad me across the floor.
Give me more
Drag me across the floor.
How can I hold you when you weigh more than I
How can I hold you when you ain't even mine
How can I hold you when you're waiting in line?
How can I hold you when you ain't even mine?
I can't breathe when your weight
pulls me down
I can't breathe when you're away,
it pulls me down
I need that sleep temptation
I need that sweet sensation
I need that sweet temptation
I need that sweet sensation
I was checking your erection
I was chasing your direction
In the light, take me through the night
Shadow dancing.
Do it light, taking me through the night
Shadow dancing.
Oh, you got the question and the answer: 'I mind'.
Oh, you are the question and the answer am I...
Shadoka says
Shadow dancing
Shut up and sing
Shadow dancing
Shut-up and s***
Shadow dancing
Take me across the flood
Take me across the floor
Trouble dancing
Shadow Dancing
You got me looking at that heaven in your ass
I was chasing your erection
I was telling you know last
You got me looking at that heaven in your eyes
I was chasing your direction
I was telling you no lies
