Skank in the Dark lyrics
Intro
Lights gone, feet still know
Skank in the dark, here we go
Verse
Knee dip low where the hi-hat cut
Ankle roll on the offbeat strut
Can't see the mirror, don't need the glass
Body's the map when the black light pass
Pre-Chorus
Who taught the feet when the eyes went out?
Floor's got a memory, no room for doubt
Step before thought, drop before sound
Dark strips it back to the step we found
Chorus
Skank in the dark, skank in the dark
Feet find the one, we don't need the spark
Blind to the room but locked to the mark
Skank in the dark, skank in the dark
Verse
Snare taps twice on the back of the knee
Shadow moves right where my shadow should be
Can't call it dancing, it's older than that
Muscle remembers where the mind went slack
Pre-Chorus
Who taught the feet when the eyes went out?
Floor's got a memory, no room for doubt
Chorus
Skank in the dark, skank in the dark
Feet find the one, we don't need the spark
Blind to the room but locked to the mark
Skank in the dark, skank in the dark
Outro
Lights stay off, we don't need the spark
Feet already home in the dark
