Metafora Tarian untuk Melepaskan Beban
Meski judulnya mengandung kata dance, Nicole menegaskan lagu ini tidak berbicara tentang aktivitas menari. Sebaliknya, tarian digunakan sebagai metafora untuk menggambarkan proses melepaskan beban emosional.
Lagu yang dirilis dengan nuansa alternative R&B ini bukan sekadar karya musik, melainkan sebuah pernyataan tentang keberanian melepaskan konflik yang tidak sehat dan memilih ketenangan sebagai jalan terbaik. Berikut lirik lengkapnya:

Dance Tonight - Nicole Robertson
Oooh, oooh, oooh
Too many faces,
Too many shades,
Too many problems,
I just can't take.
Too many questions
Inside my head.
For instance, why you have so many shapes?
Could you practice what you preach?
Oh, you’re not in the mood?
All we do you can’t deny because you don’t approve.
Got a power that’s so misused.
It’s funny and I'm just confused,
Why you always wanna be right?
When you’re the one who says you’re wise, right?
Please, I just don’t wanna pick a fight.
So whatever bitch, I’ll just dance tonight.
Why you always gotta be cruel?
When you’re the one who says don’t be rude?
The grass ain’t greener on the other side.
So whatever bitch, I’ll just dance tonight.
All you do is just blame people for your own mistakes.
You’re just doing things you know that you cannot unmake.
Can’t you be aware, for goodness’ sake?
Leave me alone; I just need a break.
Can’t accept what people say because you know it’s true.
In denial, you hurt people, left them feeling bruised.
Fucking tired of your twisted mind.
Can you go back to being kind?
Why you always wanna be right?
When you’re the one who says you’re wise, right?
Please, I just don’t wanna pick a fight.
So whatever bitch, I’ll just dance tonight.
Why you always gotta be cruel?
When you’re the one who says don’t be rude?
The grass ain’t greener on the other side.
So whatever bitch, I’ll just dance tonight.
(I’ll just say, okay)
I’ll just dance tonight.
(I’ll just say, you’re right then)
I’ll just dance tonight.
(I’ll just say, okay)
Don’t wanna pick a fight.
(I’ll just say, okay)
So whatever bitch, I’ll just dance tonight.
But I get it.
There’s a reason why you’re being like this.
Writing this damn song just makes me reminisce.
All the good things that you’ve (done)
But it’s still your choice.
All the rights and wrongs you always tell them to do when what you’re doing is just so
untrue.
It’s still your choice.
Auu-aaah
Why you always wanna be right?
When you’re the one who says you’re wise, right?
Please, I just don’t wanna pick a fight.
So whatever bitch, I’ll just dance tonight.
(Fuck it)
Why you always gotta be cruel?
When you’re the one who says don’t be rude?
The grass ain’t greener on the other side.
So whatever bitch, I’ll just dance tonight.
I’ll just dance tonight.
I’ll just dance tonight.
Don’t wanna pick a fight.
I hope that’s alright.
Just wanna dance.
Just wanna dance.
Just wanna dance tonight.
So whatever bitch, I’ll just dance tonight.
(far)
