"Will you dance a little faster?"

      Said a belle unto her beau.

"Your waltz has only two beats

      And your foxtrot’s rather slow."

 

"But my tango’s more than stylish

     And just watch this pirouette!" –

"Now, don’t do something silly dear.

      Stick with the minuet.

 

"I have noticed rather lately 

      That you step more on my toes,

But perhaps you cannot see too well

     To dance those do-si-dos.

 

"You need rhythm for your dancing 

     And should move to match the beat.

Perhaps dancing’s rather tricky

     For a man with two left feet."
