It's Dancing Just The Same

It's Dancing Just The Same

She dreamed of being a dancer wanting to make a name

All the great stages of the world would be her domain

Never did she consider not all dreams could be attained

Languishing in obscurity she never became acclaimed

In pursuit of a dream, she wouldn't let die in vain

To give up on such a dream would’ve been a shame

Therefore she hung in there until a chance finally came

Now living out a dream, that bares more than shame

It seems she has finally made for herself a name

Known as the strip pole queen in the dancing game

Performing before gawking men using an erotic name

On the gentlemen’s club circuit her act is acclaimed

And now has accepted, it’s dancing just the same
