As we stand up to have a dance
You give me an inquiring glance
I think of what you think of me
And I'm knowing what you see
Are you seeing me?
Or just seeing the man
I might be
- Just look at me

We are not talking 'bout bananas
Or jungle farmers in bandanas
So I can barely dance a samba
And I have never done the rhumba
I'm just a guy
Standing here and
I'm wondering why
- You can't see me

Won't you please this one time on our fist dance
Open your eyes, open your eyes, open then wide
This may be our only chance

You are no gringo I'm not a spic
And my friends don't chew sugar cane
My moves on girls are not to slick
Are all my words to you in vain?
Is this just a game?
Are we looking for
Someone to blame?
- Can't you see me?
I can see you!
