When I was younger and I have struggled 49 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 4: severely with dancing, people would refer to me as the 50 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 4: murder on the dance of saying that is absolute murder. 51 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 4: What you're doing on the dance floor. 52 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 3: That's what the song's about.
