Oh don’t you dare look back
Just keep your eyes on me.1
I said your holding back,2
She said shut up and dance with me!3
This woman is my destiny4
She said oh oh oh
Shut up and dance with me5
We were victims of the night,6
The chemical, physical, kryptonite7
Helpless to the bass and the fading light8
Oh we were born to get together,
Born to get together.9
She took my arm,
I don’t know how it happened.
We took the floor10 and she said
Oh don’t you dare look back
Just keep your eyes on me.
I said your holding back,
She said shut up and dance with me!
This woman is my destiny
She said oh oh oh
Shut up and dance with me
A backless dress11 and some beat up sneaks,12
My disco tec Juliet teenage dream.
I felt it in my chest as she looked at me.
I knew we were born to be together,13
Born to be together
She took my arm,
I don’t know how it happened.
We took the floor and she said
Oh don’t you dare look back
Just keep your eyes on me.
I said your holding back,
She said shut up and dance with me!
This woman is my destiny
She said oh oh oh
Shut up and dance with me
Deep in her eyes,
I think I see the future.14
I realize this is my last chance.
She took my arm,
I don’t know how it happened.
We took the floor and she said
Oh don’t you dare look back
Just keep your eyes on me.
I said your holding back,
She said shut up and dance with me!
This woman is my destiny
She said oh oh oh
Shut up and dance!
Oh don’t you dare look back
Just keep your eyes on me.
I said your holding back,
She said shut up and dance with me!
This woman is my destiny
She said oh oh oh
Shut up and dance with me
Oh oh oh shut up dance with me
Oh oh oh shut up dance with me15
This song is sung in the context of two people enjoying their time together.
“Holding back” means not being free with someone.
“Shut up and dance with me” is a lyric repeated often throughout this song. It is an invitation to dance and have a good time, an invitation not to be too serious. This is a fun song about enjoying one’s self.
Here the male tries to get serious about the relationship.
The female retaliates by insisting that, at least for now, having a good time is more important than seriousness.
“Victims of the night” refers to people that party too hard and end up making mistakes.
The “chemical, physical, kryptonite” all refer to the feelings that a fun night generates.
Loud bass and fading lights are common aspects of a club or house party.
“Get together” refers to a not-so-serious, fun sexual encounter, a “hook-up.”
“Took the floor” means they danced in front of other people.
Backless dresses are considered sexually provocative party dresses.
“Sneaks” is an abbreviation for sneakers.
The party environment stirred something inside the male’s heart, drawing him to this girl.
“I think I see the future” means that he can envision himself being together with this girl.
This song is about simply having a good time more than it is about romance, relationship, or romantic feelings.
