lyrics

So I thought I would tell you that you make me sad
So I thought I would tell you that you make me mad
So I thought I would tell you but it's too hard to call
When I know I will fall

So I thought I would try to dance with you again
So I thought you would like me more than just a friend
So I thought but now I'm thinking, it's too hard to call
I'll fall apart again

So this time I'll tell you, I'm leaving you, love
As I'm getting sick that you don't like me enough
As I e I e I'm
As I e I e
I'm not a glitter ball

I'm not a disco, I'm not a disco
I'm not a disco, I'm not a disco
You can't dance around with me
You can't dance around with me

This one's for all the times you took to set the score and
This one's for the extra time you took to love me more and
This one's for the bruise you left me when you tackled my mind
I'm leaving you behind

Forget those lines that you spin me every time we walk
Forget those times you remind me of good times before
Forget those times when you were thinking, it's too hard to call
You'll fall apart again

So this time I'll text you, I'm leaving you, love
As I'm getting sick that you don't like me enough
As I e I e I'm
As I e I e
I'm not a glitter ball

I'm not a disco, I'm not a disco
I'm not a disco, I'm not a disco
You can't dance around with me
No, you can't dance around with me
No more
I'm not a glitter ball

You've no permission to enter the floor
You've no permission to enter the floor
You've no permission to enter the floor
You’ve no position to dance with me more

I'm not a disco, I'm not a disco
I'm not a disco, I'm not a disco
Now you can't dance around with me
You can't dance around with me
No more
I’m not a glitter ball

Just say, oh no
Just say, oh no

Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah

I'm not a disco, I'm not a disco
You can't dance around with me
No you can't dance around
I'm not a glitter ball

about

Lexytron Auckland, New Zealand

“Half Greek, half Persian and half English” as she described herself age 5; Manchester-born Lexy found her identity in music early on as a pianist and violinist. Her debut album 'Something Blue' (out 20.03.2020) crosses genres - flinging the dirt and danger of rock n roll against the bleeding heart and melody of Mozart - and is an alternative girl's guide to love, loss and lust. ... more
