Lyrics: 3OH!3. Other. Careless Whisper.


(featuring Alex Gaskarth of All Time Low and Juliett Simms of Automatic Loveletter)

Originally by George Michael


Alex:
I feel so unsure,
As I take your hand, and lead you to the dance floor.
As the music dies (as the music dies),
There's something in your eyes;
Calls to mind a silver screen, and all its sad good-byes.

Alex and Juliett, echoes by 3OH!3:
I'm never gunna dance again,
Guilty feet have got no rhythm. (Ahaha!)
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know your not a fool. (You know I ain't a fool, girl!)
I shoulda known better than to cheat a friend,
And waste the chance that I'd been given. (Ahaha!)
So I'm never gunna dance again, (yep)
The way I danced with you.

Juliett:
Time can never mend (oooh),
Careless whispers of a good friend.
To the heart and mind (to the heart and mind),
Ignorance is kind (kind).
There's no comfort in the truth.
Pain is all you'll find.

Alex and Juliett, echoes by 3OH!3:
I'm never gunna dance again,
Guilty feet have got no rhythm. (Ahaha!)
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know your not a fool. (You know I ain't a fool, girl!)
I shoulda known better than to cheat a friend,
And waste the chance that I'd been given. (Ahaha!)
So I'm never gunna dance again, (yep)
The way I danced with you.

3OH!3:
Slow down,
You know you're moving too fast.
You know that I don't dance, but you insist to take my hands;
And to the beat, that move our feet, and everyone is watching me,
And I don't dance no more.
And I ain't leaving my apartment 'til it's after evening,
Bars are closing down, and every model in the pool hall's drinking.
I turn the juke box on,
To play my favorite song,
Where we sing along;
I don't dance no more.

Juliett Simms - echoes by 3OH!3:
Tonight the music seems so loud. (Yo, lets get outa here.)
I wish that we could lose this crowd. (C'mon!)
Baby, it's better this way; (Just you and me...)
We hurt each other with the things we wanna say.

Alex:
We could have been so good together; (Woo!)
We could have lived this dance forever. (Yeah, sing it, boy.)
But now who's gunna dance with me?

Alex and Juliett:
Please stay!
(simultaneously in background, 3OH!3:
1, 2, 3, 4.)

Alex and Juliett, echoes by 3OH!3:
I'm never gunna dance again,
Guilty feet have got no rhythm. (Ahaha!)
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know your not a fool. (You know I ain't a fool, girl!)
I shoulda known better than to cheat a friend,
And waste the chance that I'd been given. (Ahaha!)
So I'm never gunna dance again, (yep)
The way I danced with you.

And now that (dance again) you're gone... (Ahaha!)
(To pretend.)
(You know I ain't a fool, girl!)
And now that (cheat a friend) your gone... (You can't cheat me.) (Ahaha!)
(Yep.)

And now that (dance again) your gone... (Ahaha!)
(To pretend.)
(You know I ain't a fool, girl!)

[Fading to end:]
And now that (cheat a friend) your gone... (You can't cheat me.) (Ahaha!)
