Stop Stop Stop:The Hollies.
#2 UK and #7 USA in 1966.
#1.
See the girl with cymbals on her fingers,
entering through the door.
Ruby glistening from her navel,
shimmering around the floor.
Bells on feet go ting-a ling-a linging,
going through my head.
Sweat is falling just like tear drops,
running from her head.
#2.
Now she's dancing, going through the movements,
swaying to and fro.
Body moving, bringing back a memory,
thoughts of long ago.
Blood is rushing, temperature is rising,
sweating from my brow.
Like a snake, her body fascinates me,
I can't look away now.
CHORUS:
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
give me time to breathe.
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
Or I'll have to leave.
#3.
Now she's moving all around the tables
luring all in sight.
But I know that she cannot see me,
hidden by the light.
Closer, closer, she is getting nearer,
soon she'll be in reach.
As I enter into the spotlight
she stands lost for speech.
CHORUS:
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
give me time to breathe.
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
Or I'll have to leave.
CHORUS:
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
give me time to breathe.
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
Or I'll have to leave.
#4.
Now I hold her, people are staring,
don't know what to think.
And we struggle knocking over tables,
spilling all the drinks.
Can't they understand that I want her,
happens every week.
Heavy hand upon my collar
throws me in the street.
CHORUS:
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
give me time to breathe.
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing,
Or I'll have to le.......ave.(Fade.)
