[Intro]
Everybody’s mambo crazy
Cha-cha happy
But I'm lazy
I don't dig that frantic terpsichore
When I trip the light fantastic
I don’t wanna be gymnastic
That's not what a dancing floor is for
What I got in mind is a big improvement
With a very minimal amount of movement
Let the other couples push and shove
What I got in mind I think you’re gonna love

[Verse 1]
I’ve got a newfangled tango
And there’s nothing to it
You just sort of stand there
And just sort of do it
You stand close together
There’s no wasted motion
A newfangled tango
An old-fashioned notion

[Verse 2]
The floor may be crowded
But that doesn’t matter
It’s not necessary
To move
Don’t move
Why move
[Verse 3]
It may be crowded
But that’s all the better
It’s just like romancin’
While dancin’
Who’s dancin’

[Verse 4]
Oh, you start off with one step
And cling to each other
And you know how one step
Can lead to another

[Chorus]
Oh, there’s nothing wrong with
A waltz or fandango
But, oh, what can come from
A newfangled tango

[Verse 5]
You cling to your partner
And sway to the rhythm
You can’t lose your partner
‘Cause you’re
Right there
With him
You don’t have to worry
About fast or slow steps
The nice part about it
In this dance
You don’t need steps
You don’t have to worry
If your dancing won’t do
It’s not what you do-do
It’s more what you don’t-do
[Chorus]
You don’t need a waltz or
A fancy fandango
You just need a man
And a newfangled tango

[Outro]
Forget the fandango
Give up the mambo
Do
The
Tango
