Paroles:

[English]

I used to go out to parties

And stand around

'Cause I was too nervous

To really get down

But my body

Yearned to be free

I got up on the floor and thought

Somebody could choose me

No more standin'

There beside the wall

Finally got myself together, baby

Now I'm havin' a ball

As long as you're groovin'

There's always a chance

Somebody watchin'

Might wanna make romance

Move your body

Ooh, baby, you dance all night

To the groove and

Feel alright

...

Party, ooh!

On like a fool (whoo, whoo)

But if you see me

Spread out and let me in

Baby, just party

High and low

Let me step into

Your erotic zone

Move it up

Turn it 'round

...

Ooh, shake it down, ow, ooh!

...

You can love me when you want to, babe

This is such a groovy party, baby

We're here face to face

Baby, everybody's swingin'

This is such a groovy place

All the young ladies are so fine

Movin' your body

Easy with no doubts

I know what you thinkin', baby

You wanna turn me on

Think I'm gonna let you do it, baby

Keep on dancin' (baby, sexy lady, foxy lady)

You got to give it up

Keep on dancin' (sexy lady, foxy lady)

You got to give it up

...

Keep on dancin'

...

You got to give it up

Keep on dancin'

You got to give it up

So keep on dancin', oh darlin', yeah

...

You got to give it up

Keep on dancin'

...

You got to give it up

Keep on dancin'

You got to give it up

...

Grammaire:

  • I used to go out to parties and stand around

    ➔ Avoir l'habitude de + infinitif

    "Avoir l'habitude de" indique une habitude ou un état dans le passé qui n'est plus vrai. L'orateur indique qu'il "avait l'habitude de" sortir et de rester là, mais il ne le fait plus.

  • 'Cause I was too nervous to really get down

    ➔ Trop + adjectif + pour + infinitif

    ➔ La structure "trop + adjectif + pour + infinitif" exprime que quelque chose est excessif et empêche quelque chose d'autre de se produire. Ici, l'orateur était "trop" nerveux pour "se lâcher" (danser).

  • I got up on the floor and thought somebody could choose me

    ➔ Verbe modal "pourrait" (possibilité)

    "Pourrait" exprime une possibilité. L'orateur pensait qu'il était possible que quelqu'un puisse le choisir (pour danser ou romantiquement).

  • No more standin' there beside the wall

    ➔ Gérondif comme nom ("standin'")

    "Standin'" (standing) fonctionne comme un nom dans cette phrase. L'expression "No more standin'" signifie que l'orateur ne restera plus debout.

  • As long as you're groovin', there's always a chance

    ➔ Tant que (proposition conditionnelle)

    "Tant que" introduit une proposition conditionnelle. La proposition principale, "there's always a chance", dépend de la condition que "tu te lâches" (grooving).

  • Somebody watchin' might wanna make romance

    ➔ Verbe modal "might" (possibilité)

    "Might" exprime une probabilité plus faible que "could". Il y a une possibilité que quelqu'un qui regarde veuille commencer une romance.

  • You can love me when you want to, babe

    ➔ Quand (proposition subordonnée de temps)

    "Quand tu veux" est une proposition subordonnée de temps, qui modifie le verbe "peux aimer". Elle indique le moment auquel l'action d'aimer est permise.

  • Think I'm gonna let you do it, baby

    ➔ Gonna (going to) - Intention future

    "Gonna" est une contraction familière de "going to", utilisée pour exprimer une intention ou un plan futur. L'orateur se demande s'il permettra à l'autre personne de "le faire".
