Last week, I found a message in a bottle
It said: Go home, ain't nobody love you no more
I can't disagree
So, last night I went to the club
Had a couple too many, threw up
Now, everybody's laughing at me

'Cause I'm way too sad
Way too sad to dance
I'm way too sad to dance

'Cause I got too caught up, my friends agree
A broken heart and nobody
And that's why I'm too sad to dance
And now I just wait by the telephone
You ain't coming back and I should've known
And that's why I'm too sad to dance

Oh, da-da-dum-da-da-da, da-da-dum-da-da-dum
That's why I'm too sad to dance

This morning, I knocked at your door
Just to admit my flaws
But you said you've heard it all before, mm
And this Christmas I got no gifts
Do I really deserve all this?
So, I head straight down to the liquor store

'Cause I'm way too sad
Way too sad to dance
I'm way too sad to dance

'Cause I got too caught up, my friends agree
A broken heart and nobody
And that's why I'm too sad to dance
And now I just wait by the telephone
You ain't coming back and I should've known
And that's why I'm too sad to dance

Oh, da-da-dum-da-da-da, da-da-dum-da-da-dum
That's why I'm too sad to dance
Oh, da-da-dum-da-da-da, da-da-dum-da-da-dum
That's why I'm too sad to dance

So, I called up my pops last night
He said by the morning light
You won't need no romance
He told me: Walk that walk alone
And talk that talk, you know
'Cause you don’t need no one to dance
