AmThat if I danCce with somebody

GI almost bought some other gDirl your favourite drink
Had to Amstop myself, stop myCself
Had to drink the lemon dGrop myself, drop myDself
They tChink they're trying to help introducing me to someone else
I pDlay along cause I haven't got the heart to tell em
[Chorus]
AmThat if I daCnce with somebody
