Emergency Exit

As performed by Ethan Castro and Gabrielle Lee, 2012. 

The dress doesn't make her any less; she's a leader
She spins him around, takes him to town
But he can't keep up

She's breathing, he's wheezing, he hopes she won't
Put up a fight and he'll get her at the end of the night
But she's breathing, he's wheezing, she knows it's her night tonight.

(She steals all the glances; no other boys have chances)

First glance, one dance--she's got it right there
Thanks to her sultry stare and all the heat in the room
One drink, don't think; says he won't break you
Just let the music take you and feel the boom boom boom

And feel the boom boom boom
And feel the, and feel the

The tango is her dance
Hit, hit, she's got the rhythm, darling
She's arching her back and she takes no slack
Shake, shake, shake on the dance floor, baby

She's fire, he's ice; they melt in the lights
She's fire, he's ice, they melt in the lights

(Please locate your nearest emergency exit)

She's got the rhythm, honey
So hot it isn't funny

No change, no blame--she's waiting for him
She's, she's taking him in even though he heard her before
Her hands, her plans--now it's her turn to play
Now the rules are her way; she's got control of the floor

She's got control of the floor
She's got control, control, control

Just when he thinks he's got her, she leaves
She knows his game, she's not entertained
Seen all the moves before
She comes back, twirls him around, takes him to town

And she's breathing, he's wheezing, she knows he won't
Be able to keep up; she's got the hips and he takes the hit
And she spins him right round, baby right round, like a record

Now all the lights are dimming, and then his head starts spinning

Last time, no mind, she's got it all down
She's turned the table around, he can't see her heart this time
New game, new play: I'm ready for you
I hate to break it to you
You're gonna dim while I shine
