about
Way back in 2009...
This track came about through having to create a Christmas song for an advertising project. It had to sound like it was a Christmas favourite that had been around for years. So with that in mind, I kinda imagined this song being in film featuring someone like Hugh Grant in Love Actually... a very cheesy, very British Christmas song.
lyrics
Oh... you want to sing it yourself, karaoke style?
Well, check out the vocal version, and then help yourself.
LYRICS
VERSE 1
You can keep your mistletoe
You can keep your yellow snow
I just wanna have some fun
Now that this year is done
I'm looking forward to Christmas Day
When all the presents get packed away
The rosy faces they'll come alive
When Mr. DJ's comin' down the drive
CHORUS
Dancing Dad!
Whisky and a vodka tonic
T.V. there but nothing on it
He shows us how to do it right
While all the kids shout and fight
He's throwing Granny 'round the room
Doesn't care he looks a fool
He puts another record on
...and dances like he's 21
VERSE 2
Ev'ry year it ends the same
Far too drunk to feel ashamed
Disco dancing from years before
Crazy moves that send us to the floor
But out of all the dancing freaks
There's always one who's got us beat
He's the guy in the slippered feet
Busting moves to a funky beat
