Everybody's mumbo -crazy,
cha -cha happy but I'm lazy
I don't dig that frantic
Terpsichore
When I trip they're like fantastic
I don't want to be gymnastic
That's not what a dancing floor is for
What I got in mind is a big improvement
With the very minimum amount of moves
Let the other couples
push and shove
What I got in mind,
I think you're gonna love
I've got a new fangle tangle
And there's nothing to it
You just sorta stand there
And just sorta do it
You stand close together
There's no wasted motion
A newfangled tango,
an old -fashioned notion
The floor may be crowded,
but that doesn't matter
It's not necessary to move,
don't move, why move?
It may be crowded,
but that's all the better
It's just like romancing
while dancing who's dancin'.
Oh, you start off with one step
and cling to each other,
and you know how one step can lead to another. Oh,
there's nothin' wrong
with a waltz or fandango,
but oh, what can come from a
newfangled tango?
You cling to your partner
and sway to the rhythm
You can't lose your partner
cause you're right there with him
You don't have to worry
about fast or slow steps
The nice part about it,
in this dance you don't
need steps
You don't have to worry
if your dancing won't do
It's not what you do do,
it's more what you don't do
You don't need a waltz
or a fancy fandango
You just need a man and
a new fangletango
Forget the fandango
Give a trombone to the tango.
