we don't dance, not tonight
tonight, we are all looking a little bit more fabric than body
and I've got that sort of forced smile, awkward pose, first month of high school kind of look
the one with the wrong shoes, and the sweaty palms
the one with his older brother's suit, and no corsage
the one where we carpool
so we don't dance, no, not tonight
tonight is about feeling small next to the speakers
about the heel breaking, the uncomfortable laughter, and the sunday school slow dance
tonight is before the attitude
tonight is more dress than hips,
more dirt road than runway
no swagger, not the middle of dance floor
just a long line coming from the bathroom, and a mean homecoming queen
