I Didn't Come Here For Art

So he invites me out

Said he's going to the really cool night

And I said

Wow, that's sounds really cool

So I step out the UBER

Everywhere I look

Turtle necks, crochet barets, distressed linens

(Uh)

I walk inside

The DJ's playing ambient noise

There's a huddle of people

Watching an interpretive dance performance

Someone's painting a wall with their hand

A girl's in the corner, drinking orange wine

Talking 'bout how her flip phone saved her life

And no one was dancing!

So my friend turned to me and said

"Isn't this cool?"

And I said

"No" (no, no)

So I told him

(I, I) I didn't come here for art

I only came here to dance

I didn't come here for art

I only came here to dance

I didn't come here for art

I only came here to dance

I didn't come here for art

I only came here to

Dance!

Don't ask me about Almodóvar!

When I'm tryna get a drink

At the bar

I'm not here to think

Just here for fun

Someone tell the DJ

Play a song with drums!

Oh my god, is that too much to ask for?

People wanna dance

On the dancefloor

If the beat's hard, they're gonna dance more

Guess they didn't teach that at art school

So tell your arty friends (tell 'em)

Put don't the guardian (tell 'em)

Take off your cardigan

You ain't in central St. Martins

What' a trilby to a snapback?

What's a quiche to a Big Mac?

What's a vape to cig pack?

I don't care, just let me fuckin' hit that

A girl blows a cloud of Banana Ice Lost Mary's in my face and asks

"What' wrong?"

So I say

(I, I) I didn't come here for art

I only came here to dance

I didn't come here for art

I only came here to dance

I didn't come here for art

I only came here to dance

I didn't come here for art

I only came here to

Dance!

All right, people

We need to act now

'Cause it looks like they're about to set up live drawing

Are you sick of it? (yes)

You wanna dance? (yes)

Good!

Well repeat after me!

No more, try-hard, spoken word, art school shit!

(No more, try-hard, spoken word, art school shit!)

No more "How the fuck am I supposed to dance to this?"

(No more "How the fuck am I supposed to dance to this?")

No more, try-hard, spoken word, art school shit!

No more "How the fuck am I supposed to dance to this?"

No more, try-hard, spoken word, art school shit!

And if the DJ sucks

Then he asked for it

(I, I) I didn't come here for art

I only came here to dance

I didn't come here for art

I only came here to dance

I didn't come here for art

I only came here to dance

I didn't come here for art

I only came here to

Dance!
