It's Time For Jonathan Richman

Lyrics

Things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party
Where I said I wouldn't go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

I have em all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
I have em all all in my trance
When I dance

And I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely move at all
Compared to a lot of guys you know
And if the music isn't right that day
Well my little body hardly has anything to say
But they're all in my trance
When I dance
Yeah the way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

Jonathan, why do you think???

Well, when I dance that's passion
And now when I dance that's love
And sometimes I cause an attraction
That I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop it
And I don't blush because I like ya, I like ya

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
And if the music isn't right that day
Well now my little body hardly has anything to say
But they're all in my trance
When I dance
Yeah the way I move myself around
I'm saying they're all in my trance, yeah
The way I dance

Things were slow, a little slow
In fact when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But in a minute and a half you see
They wern't watching each other they were watchin me
They're all in my trance
When I dance, yeah
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
The way I dance

I'm So Confused

[Cm] Things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party
Where I said I wouldn't go
But in the [Fm] mood, I stay
And then I [Cm] didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

Well, they're [Gm] all in my [Fm] trance
When I [Cm] dance
The way I move myself around
And they're [Gm] all in my [Fm] trance
When I [Cm] dance

I'm not a [Cm] pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely move at all
Compared to certain guys you know
But if you [Fm] look and see
You'll see they [Cm] won't watch them
The same way they watch me

And they're [Gm] all in my [Fm] trance
When I [Cm] dance
The way I move myself around
And they're [Gm] all in my [Fm] trance
When I [Cm] dance

Well, [Fm] when I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And there's times I cause that attraction
Well then I [Gm] don't try to start
I just don't try to stop
And I don't blush cause I like it like that

Things were [Cm] slow, a little slow
And when they put on a record I didn't want to know
But soon I [Fm] stood against my will
I heard an [Cm] old time song and I could not sit still

And they're [Gm] all in my [Fm] trance
When I [Cm] dance
The way I move myself around
And they're [Gm] all in my [Fm] trance
When I [Cm] dance

Lyrics

Well things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party
Where I didn't want to go
But in the mood, I stay
Then I didn't blush at all
At the scene [??? [[talking French]]]

Well things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party
Where I didn't [listen to Curly!]
But in the mood, I stay
And I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

I had them all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
I have them all in my trance
When I dance

And I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to lots of guys you know
But if you look closely
You see they might watch them, but they all watched me
Oh they're all in my trance
When I dance
Well
They're all in my trance, yeah
When I dance

Oh well now, when I dance that's action
And when I dance that's love
And sometimes I cause an attraction
Well then I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop it
I don't blush because I don't mind

Things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the record well I didn't want to know
But then I stood, against my will
Well I heard an old song and I could not sit still
They're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
They're all in my trance, yeah
The way I dance

[Switch]

Oh well now, when I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And I sometimes cause an attraction
Well then I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop it
I don't blush because I don't mind

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to certain guys you know
And if the music isn't right that day
Well my little body doesn't have very much to say
But they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
They're all in my trance, yeah
The way I dance

The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

I don't blush because I like ya

Things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But soon I stood against my will

When I dance, oh yeah
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

Well they're all in my trance
The way I dance

Yeah

Jonathan, why do you think?

Well, when I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And sometimes I cause this attraction (bring it down)
That I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop it
And I don't blush because I like it that way

Things were slow, a little slow
In fact when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But in a minute and a half you see
They wern't watching each other they were watchin me
Oh yeah they're all in my trance
When I dance, yeah
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
The way I dance

(Bring it up, for the bridge)

Oh Well now, when I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And sometimes I cause this attraction
That I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop it
And I don't blush because I like it like that

Things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But soon I stood against my will
Well I heard an old song and I couldn't sit still

Oh they're all in my trance
The way I dance, oh you know
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
The way I dance

(One last verse, pick it up ???)

Things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the record well I didn't want to know
But in a minute and a half you see
They wern't watching each other they were watching me
Oh they're all in my trance
When I dance, yeah
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
The way I dance

(Yeah, keep it there)

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
And if the music isn't right that day
Well now my little body hardly has anything to say
But they're all in my trance
The way I dance
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
The way I dance

Heartbreak Club 1985

Lyrics

Now things were slow, a little slow
And I was at this kind of party
Where I didn't intend to go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush a bit
At the scene I made

I have them all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
I have them all in my trance
When I dance

And I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to lots of guys you know
And if the music isn't quite right that day
Well my little body won't have very much to say
But they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
Oh they're all in my trance
The way I dance

(Why would this happen Jonathan?)

Well now, when I dance there's passion
And when I dance there's love
And I often cause an attraction
Well that I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop
And I don't blush because I don't mind

And things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But soon I stood against my will
Well I heard an old song, a favourite of mine, and I could not sit still

Oh they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
Oh they're all in my trance
When I dance

Well, when I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And I often cause an attraction
Well that I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop
And I don't blush because I like it, I like it

And things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the record folks I didn't want to know
But in a minute and half you see
They weren't watching each other
They were watching me

And they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

The Rex Club 1985

Lyrics

Things were slow, a little slow
And I was at that kind of party
Where I said I'm not gonna go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

I have them all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

And I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely move at all
Compared to a lot of ??? you know
But if you look and see
You'll see they don't watch them
The way that they watch me
They're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

Jonathan, why do you think?

Well
Well now, when I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And sometimes I cause this attraction
That I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop it
I don't blush because [[something in French]]

Things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the [[something in French]] I didn't want to know
But soon I stood against my will
You see, they played an old song
A favourite of mine
I couldn't sit still
They're all in my trance
When I dance, oh yeah
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
The way I dance

[Rock it once]

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
And if the music isn't right that day
My little body doesn't have anything to say
They're all in my trance
When I dance
Yeah the way I move myself around
They're all in my trance
When I dance

[Ça va bien?] [[How are you doing?]]

Pardon?
The girl in the photographs?
Three months older, yeah, and so are you and I
Okay]

Now things were slow, a little slow

San Fran 1986

Lyrics

[Sometimes I get sad cause i don't
Dance song and ???
As I did when ???
You see in my early twenties
They used to have
What did they have on the radio?
Then they had things like
'Who's that lady there?
Who's that lady'
??? Things like that
??? Now ???
Anyway ???
When I didn't dance
??? Find some kind of beat
All of a sudden I hear this song
And I wouldn't care
The next song is called
When I Dance
It's a true story]

Well things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party
Where I wasn't going to go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush a bit
At the scene I made

I have them all in my trance
When I dance [get up here]
The way I move myself around [??? get up here]
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
And if the music isn't right that day
Well now my little body barely has anything to say
But they're all in my trance
When I dance
Yeah the way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

Jonathan, what causes that?

Well now, when I dance that's passion
And when I dance they feel love
And sometimes I cause an attraction
Well I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop it
And I don't blush because I like it like that

Things were slow, a little slow
In fact when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But soon I stood, against my will
??? Songs and I couldn't sit still
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance
Yeah the way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

Jonathan, why why why?

Well now, when I dance that's action
And when I dance that's love
And sometimes I cause an attraction
Well I don't try to start it
I just don't try to stop it
And I don't even blush because I like it like that

Things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But in a minute and a half you see
They stopped watching each other
And started watching me
They're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

The Spirit

Lyrics

Now things were slow, a little slow
In fact I was at the kind of party
Where I said hey I'm not going to go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

I have em all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
And if the music isn't right for me
Well my little body hardly gives anything to see
But they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

Well now, when I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And sometimes I cause a kind of attraction
That I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop it [that's all]
And I don't blush because I like ya, I like ya

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact when they put on the record
I didn't want to know
But in a minute and a half you see
They stopped watching each other
And they started watching me
Well they're all in my trance
Yeah, when I dance
The way I move myself around
They're all in my trance
When I dance

They're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
They're all in my trance
When I dance

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact, I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know

You see that they don't watch them
The same way that they watch me

When I dance
Yeah the way I move myself around
They're all in my trance
When I dance

Live At Davis

Lyrics

All right already sing the song! What's the problem?

Things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party where I wasn't going to go
But in the mood I stay
And then I didn't brush at all at the scene I made
Oh, they're all in my trance when I dance
The way I move myself around
Oh, they're all in my trance when I dance

And I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move compared to a lot of guys you know
And if the music isn't right for me
Well my little body barely gives you anything to see
Because they're all in my trance when I dance
The way I move myself around
Oh, they're all in my trance when I dance

Jonathan, why do you think?

Because when I dance, that's action
And when I dance, that's love
And sometimes I cause an attraction
That I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop
And I don't blush because I like it like that

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact they put on the record that I didn't want to know
But soon I stood against my will
I heard a certain old song, and I could not sit still
Oh, they're all in my trance when I dance
The way I move myself around
Oh, they're all in my trance when I dance

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely move at all compared to a lot of guys you know
And if the music isn't right for me
Then my little body I guess it just then doesn't really give you much to see
But, they're all in my trance when I dance
The way I move myself around
Oh, they're all in my trance when I dance

Jonathan, why do you think?

Because when I dance, that's passion
And when I dance, that's love
And sometimes I cause an attraction
That I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop
And I don't blush because I like it like that

Things were slow, a little slow
And they put on the record that I didn't want to know
But I stood against my will
I heard a certain old song and I could not sit still
Oh, they're all in my trance when I dance
The way I move myself around
Oh, they're all in my trance when I dance

Mean Fiddler

Lyrics

Things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party
Where I said I wouldn't go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

Oh they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all all in my trance
The way I dance

I'm not
[You see those were all rock and roll tricks
All my tricks on the guitar are from the year 1962]

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
But if you look and see
You'll see they don't watch them
The same way they watch me
And they're all in my trance
When I dance
Ph yeah
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

[Jonathan, why do you think?]

Cause, when I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And sometimes I cause this attraction
That I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop
And I don't blush because I like ya, I like ya

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact they put on the record that I didn't want to know
But in a minute and a half you see
Well they stopped watching each other
Cause they were too busy watching me
And they're all in my trance
When I dance
When I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

Amsterdam

Lyrics

Things were slow, a little slow
And I was at that kind of party
Where I said I'm not going to go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

They're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
They're all in my trance
When I dance

[You might think I'm bragging
But it happens sometimes

No it doesn't always happen
Sometimes it happens]

And I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Probably compared to a lot of people they know
But if they look and see
You'll see they don't watch them
The same way they watch me
And they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

[Well Jonathan, why do you think?]

Cause, when I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And sometimes I cause this attraction
That I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop it
And I don't blush because I like it like that

Things were slow, a little slow
You know when they started putting on the record I didn't want to know
But soon I stood against my will
A heard a certain old song and I couldn't sit still
And they're all in my trance
When I dance, all right
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

Let's go

And I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
And if the music isn't right that day
Well my little body barely has anything to say
But they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
They're all in my trance
When I dance

Subterranea Club

Lyrics

Well things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party
Where I said I wouldn't go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

And they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
But if you look, and see
You see they don't watch them
The same way that they watch me

And they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

Things were slow, a little slow
In fact when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But in a minute and a half you see
Well they stopped watching each other and they were watching me

And they're all in my trance
When I dance
Well the way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
The way I dance

[Well how come Jonathan?]

Cause
When I dance it's you know the passion [that's what I got]
And when I dance that's love
And there's times that I cause an attraction
Well that I don't really try to start
I just don't try to stop it
I don't blush because I don't mind,

Now things were slow, a little slow [give me a beat]
And when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But soon I stood against my will
I heard a certain song and I could not sit still

And they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

And they were all in my trance
The way I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

[Jonathan, why do you think?]
Cause when I dance, that's action
And when I dance, that's love
And there's these times that I cause this attraction
Well that I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop
And I don't blush because I don't mind,

Things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But soon I stood against my will
I heard a certain old song and I could not sit still

And they were all in my trance
The way I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

Lyrics

[Good night]

Things were slow, a little slow
And I was at that kind of party
Where I said I wouldn't go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

They're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all all in my trance
When I dance

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely move at all
Compared to certain guys you know
But if you look and see
You see they don't watch them
The same way they watch me
And they're all all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all all in my trance
When I dance

Things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the record I didn't want to know
But soon I stood against my will
I heard the old time song, I could not sit still
Then they're all all in my trance
When I dance, that's right
The way I move myself around
And they're all all in my trance
The way I dance

Jonathan, why?
Because

When I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And sometimes I cause this attraction
Well that I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop
And I don't blush because I like ya like that

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
But if you look and see
You'll see they don't watch them
The same way they watch me
And they're all all in my trance
The way I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all all in my trance
The way I dance

Lyrics

Things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party
Where I said I wouldn't go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

Oh they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

Live In Victoria (second one)

Lyrics

Now things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party
Where I said I wouldn't go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

Oh they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
But if you look and see
You'll see they don't watch them, the same way they watch me
And they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all
In my trance
When I dance

I'm not a pro, not a pro
When they put on the record
I didn't want to know
But soon I stood
Against my will
I heard an old time song
And I could not sit still
And they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

Live In Tampa Bay 1992

Lyrics

Things were slow, a little slow
And I was at the kind of party
Where I said I wouldn't go
But in the mood, I stay
And then I didn't blush at all
At the scene I made

Oh they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
The way I dance

I'm not a pro, it's not cause I'm a pro
Cause in fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know

But if you look and see
You see they don't watch them quite the same way they watch me
And they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
When I dance

Jonathan, why?

Cause, when I dance that's passion
And when I dance that's love
And there's times I cause this attraction
Well that I don't try to start
I just don't try to stop
And I don't blush because I like it like that

And things were slow, a little slow
And when they put on the record well I didn't want to know
But soon I stood against my will
Well I heard an old time song and I could not sit still
And they're all in my trance
When I dance
The way I move myself around
And they're all in my trance
The way I dance

I'm not a pro, I'm not a pro
In fact I barely even move
Compared to a lot of guys you know
And if the music isn't right that day
Well now my little body hardly has anything to say
But they're all in my trance
When I dance
Yeah the way I move myself around
I'm saying they're all in my trance, yeah
The way I dance
