Dance 4 U – Charli XCX


If you were gonna sing something to a girl to try and seduce her, what would you sing, and will you sing it for us?

Seduce her?!

Yup!

Uhh, I don’t know, um… I’ve never tried to seduce a girl yet

Under your magic

Under your magic in the night

I twist and turn

But I can never put up a fight

You are like diamonds

You are like diamonds in the night

Ask me a question

You know I’ll do anything, I’m hittin’ the tides (dance)

Just stay

Just stay awake

Just lay

Just lay for me

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance, but you want me to

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance but you like what I do

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance, but you want me to

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance, but I’ll dance for you

Body electric

Lost in our hyper fantasy

I really feel it

I’m moving both my arms, yeah, it’s happening

Lost all my feelings

I don’t really care who’s watchin’ me

We’re on a level

If they don’t like what we do, well, they can just leave

You stay

You stay awake

You lay

You lay for me

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance, but you want me to

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance but you like what I do

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance, but you want me to

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance

You know I can’t dance, but I’ll dance for you

Justin (Bieber), Justin (Bieber), Justin (Bieber)

Justin (Bieber), Justin (Bieber), Justin (Bieber)

Justin (Bieber), Justin (Bieber), Justin (Bieber)

Justin (Bieber), Justin (Bieber), just in place

Seduced by the Beat: Exploring “Dance 4 U”

Charli XCX’s “Dance 4 U” is a playful, self-aware anthem that brings vulnerability to the dancefloor. The lyrics revolve around the idea of dancing for someone, even if dancing isn’t your strongest suit. Charli captures the feeling of being under someone’s spell—“Under your magic in the night”—and the willingness to let go of inhibitions for the sake of connection. The repeated confession, “You know I can’t dance, but I’ll dance for you,” highlights the sincerity and charm that comes with stepping out of your comfort zone. The track’s infectious repetition and quirky nod to “Justin (Bieber)” amplify the playful tone, making it both relatable and irresistibly catchy.
