[Verse 1]
Last week, I found a message in a bottle
It said go home, ain't nobody love you no more
I can't disagree
So, last night, I went to the club
Had a couple too many threw up
Now, everybody's laughing at me

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm way too sad
Way too sad to dance
I'm way too sad to dance

[Chorus]
'Cause I got too caught up, my friends agree
A broken heart and nobody
And that's why I'm too sad to dance
And now, I just wait by the telephone
You ain't coming back and I should've known
And that's why I'm too sad to dance

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, da-da-dum-da-da-da, da-da-dum-da-da-dum
That's why I'm too sad to dance

[Verse 2]
This morning, I knocked your door
Just to admit my flaws
But you said you've heard it all before, mmm
And this Christmas, I got no gifts
Do I really deserve all this?
So, I head straight down to the liquor store, uh-uh
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm way too sad
Way too sad to dance
I'm way too sad to dance

[Chorus]
'Cause I got too caught up, my friends agree
A broken heart and nobody
And that's why I'm too sad to dance
And now, I just wait by the telephone
You ain't coming back and I should've known
And that's why I'm too sad to dance

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, da-da-dum-da-da-da, da-da-dum-da-da-dum
That's why I'm too sad to dance
Oh, da-da-dum-da-da-da, da-da-dum-da-da-dum
That's why I'm too sad to dance

[Verse 3]
So, I called up my pops last night
He said by the morning light
You won't need no romance
He told me, walk that walk alone
And talk that talk, you know
'Cause you don't need no one to dance
[Instrumental Outro]
