We Don't Have To Dance Lyrics (Andy Black)

I do not own this song by any means. This is purely for entertainment and reference for the fans of Andy Black, including myself.

Link to the music video (Vevo):

Lyrics:

Record scratch; Steve Miller Band
Tattooed necks and tattooed hands
Oh, how don't you drown in the rain storm?
Fresh regrets, vodka sweats
The sun is down and we're bound to get
Exhausted and so far from the shore

You're never gonna get it
I'm a hazard to myself
I'll break it to you easy
This is hell, this is hell
You're looking and whispering
You think I'm someone else
This is hell, yes.
Literal hell.

We don't have to talk
We don't have to dance
We don't have to smile
We don't have to make friends
It's so nice to meet you,
Let's never meet again
We don't have to talk
We don't have to dance
We don't have to dance

Bottles smash, I raise my hand
How can you all even stand
And why is there joy in this poison, oh
Faking smiles and confidence
Driving miles to capture this excitement
I can't take anymore

You're never gonna get it
I'm a hazard to myself
I'll break it to you easy
This is hell, this is hell
You're looking and whispering
You think I'm someone else
This is hell, yes.
I am in hell

We don't have to talk
We don't have to dance
We don't have to smile
We don't have to make friends
It's so nice to meet you,
Let's never meet again

You're never gonna get it
I'm a hazard to myself
I'll break it to you easy
This is hell, this is hell
You're looking and whispering
You think I'm someone else
This is hell, yes.
Literal hell

We don't have to talk
We don't have to dance
We don't have to smile
We don't have to make friends
It's so nice to meet you,
Let's never meet again

We don't have to talk
We don't have to dance
We don't have to dance
We don't have to dance
We don't have to dance
We don't have to dance

The story behind this song? Andy was invited to a party by someone who didn't like him (idk how THAT'S possible) because it was the expected thing to do. That got him thinking about how frustrating celebrity life is because he didn't get to be treated normally. This song is about that frustration and his desire to be like everyone else.

Andy's voice is beautiful and so special

[scarsonhearts]

listening to songs through ear buds make every song more emotional

[gamingnerd]

*me at a dance/party/anything social related*
Me: this is hell
Person: be social!
Me: THIS IS HELL YES
Person: no it’s not
Me: I AM IN HELL!

[jaredwalker]

Andy: How don't you drown in a rainstorm?

Me: It's literally raining here.

This song describes a lot of people. specifically people with social anxiety and, or introverts. Which is why I love this song. it describes me :)

[mxsinisterr]

For everyone wondering what the song is about, it is about being at a party and having Social Anxiety.

*Andy*we don't have to dance *me* good cos I can't dance

[mynameissarah]

"It's so nice to meet you, let's never meet again" is the greatest song lyric that will ever be written and that's that

[werewolfiegamer]

Social Anxiety-
Fear of social situations that involve interaction with other people. Social anxiety is the fear and anxiety of being negatively judged and evaluated by other people. It is a pervasive disorder and causes anxiety and fear in most all areas of a person's life.

[mehgenvargas]

I've never really been like a fan of him or BVB but I mean even I can admit Andys literally the most attractive person and has the most attractive voice like fucking ever

[friendlyneighborhoodgoth]

Its so bizarre listening to a song that symbolizes social anxiety and no longer making a connection to it. I had anxiety for quite a while, i was hella insecure and i could never feel anything except panic when in large crowds. But i can no longer relate to these songs, i still love them but idk. Its just weird.

Haven't listened to BVB since I was 15. I'm 20 now & Andy's solo music is beautiful.

[frankiethecat]

In 9th grade, I had one friend (who was really toxic) and our first dance together, I had a panic attack and she left me and I sat down and my head basically turned off and then she yelled at me bc she had a panic attack too but "I didn't even know" like, I straight told her that it was one of the worst panic attacks I have had but she didn't care. That's what this song reminds me of (it is about social anxiety at a party, right?)
