Song Description

"You Should Dance" is the first track off Imran Mandani's debut album. The song is a blend of Hip Hop and Electronic Dance Music that makes the listener do what the title says. "You Should Dance" tells a "guy meets girl" story from start to finish and boasts three separate choruses. The lyrics allow the listener to relate to what is being sung. "You Should Dance" is a realistic song about male to female interaction and dynamics on a dance floor. Where most Hip Hop club songs have a fantasy aspect and start somewhere in the middle, this song talks about a man trying to get a woman to dance with him from the minute he walks up to her table. The song has an Electro-Pop feel with a slight Latino beat at a moderately fast tempo.

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Imran Mandani]

I see you sitting there, you're playing with your hair
I see you smiling at me, I'm trying not to stare
My time to make a move, you act so unaware
I came to break the ice, and get you off your chair

I can't ignore your friends, I'm talking to them first
And so I make 'em laugh, but only you I flirt
You know I come correct, I know that you're impressed
I feel you open up, you want me to yourself

[First Hook: Imran Mandani] 2x

I think I fell in love, but only for a minute
I just might have to dip, if you don't get into it
Don't even act like you don't wanna dance
Don't even act like you don't wanna dance

I think I fell in love, but only for a minute
I'll dance with someone else, if you don't really get into it
Don't even act like you don't wanna dance
Don't even act like you don't wanna dance

[Verse 2: Imran Mandani]

Now your friends dragged you out, you didn't want to go
But you are looking fine, and ready for the floor
I know you feel my vibe, it's written in your eyes
You say you can't dance, but really you're just shy

You like to sit and chat, But I just grab your hands
I didn't even ask, and now you're pulling back
You look a little nervous, but I just take the lead
You contradict your words, and now you're on your feet

[First Hook: Imran Mandani]

[Verse 3: Imran Mandani]

This club is too damn loud, I can't hear you talking
Talk with your body babe, dance like no one is watching
If you gon' hesitate, I'll feel it in your moves
So let your self go, and get into the groove

You got that inner swagger, but out your element
I let you loosen up, cause I'm a gentleman
I let you do your thing, you moving pretty close
Now you grinding on me, you out your comfort zone

[Second Hook: Imran Mandani] 2x

Are you falling in love? Let's dance from start to finish
You start to juke and grind, just keep up with the rhythm
Dance like there's no tomorrow, let's dance the night away
Don't act like you wanna leave, I know you want to stay

[Bridge: Imran Mandani]

I don't want to just grab you and be a total jerk
Just get into the music and just let your booty work
You can grab my hands and place them anywhere you want
Girl you got it going on don't be afraid to flaunt

You just grab your girlfriends make a circle all around me
I just get into the middle you can come surround me
You just grab your girlfriends make a circle all around me
I just get into the middle you can come surround me

[Third Hook: Imran Mandani] 2x

I think you fell in love, been dancing for a minute
Last call for alcohol, let's leave and we can kick it
Don't ever act like you don't want to dance
Don't ever act like you don't want to dance
