Dance You Outta My Head

Song meaning of Dance You Outta My Head by Cat Jance

Janice released her song "Dance You Outta My Head" on TikTok in January 2024, four days after entering a hospice for terminal cancer. Co-written with Max Vernon, the song is about being one's absolute best, going out, and deciding to just dance troubles out of one's head. Janice decided to release the song independently, rather than through her usual recording label, to release the song more quickly.

Online she wrote, "I think I'm being called home. My last joy would be if you pre-saved my song 'Dance You Outta My Head' in my bio and streamed it because all proceeds go straight to my 7-year-old boy I'm leaving behind." Janice transferred the rights to all her songs to her son, which was inspired by a line, "Dance until you love me", that she and her son randomly sang over and over while on a drive one day.

Lyrics of Dance You Outta My Head by Cat Jance

Walk in the room

And I'm glowing like a million fireflies, mm

A diamond don't glitter half as much as my body tonight

Ah, ah, ah

I catch a glimpse of your face in the neon

Suddenly, begging please, set me free from

Your eyes, your touch

History, secret crush I've gotta hide (I, I, I)

You wanna take me up high (you wanna take me up high)

I wanna dance instead (I wanna dance instead)

Get you out of my head (out of my head)

This is getting so complicated

It's a mess for the ages

And the feeling, feeling inside

Dancing on the edge of disaster

Makes my heart beat faster

And the feeling, the feeling ain't right

And so I've gotta dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Dance you outta my head

Must be the red wine or am I intoxicated by your style?

I close my eyes

You spin me 'round and hold me down

Can't beat your smile

So help me God (so help me God)

So fuckin' hot (so fuckin' hot)

Dance you outta my thoughts (dance you outta my thoughts)

This is getting so complicated

It's a mess for the ages

And the feeling, feeling inside

Dancing on the edge of disaster

Makes my heart beat faster

And the feeling, the feeling ain't right

And so I've gotta dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Dance you outta my head (this is getting)

So complicated

And I hate that I don't hate it

The feeling, the feeling inside

Dancing on the edge of disaster

Hold my hands up, it don't matter

I need it, I need it

(Need it, I really, really need it)

So complicated

It's a mess for the ages

When you're feeling a feeling inside

Dancing on the edge of disaster

Makes my heart beat faster

And the feeling, the feeling ain't right

So I've gotta dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head

Gonna dance you outta my head
