Opposites Attract

two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
*Baby it seems we never ever agree
You like the movies and I like TV
I take them serious and you take them light
I go to bed early
And I party all night

4 ladies chain across, chain 'em back
Swing and promenade
'Cause we're perfectly matched
It ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together cause opposites attract


FIGURE    Basic - SSD Week 10, corner progression

Heads take 2 steps forward
Now 2 steps go back
Square thru 4 hands around the floor there, Jack
4 hands around, do a right & left thru
Veer left and ferris wheel around you do
Right & left thru, square thru go 3
Swing the corner girl and promenade for me
Don't think we'll ever get our differences patched
Don't really matter cause we're perfectly matched


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Our friends are saying
We ain't gonna last
'Cause I move slowly
And baby, I'm fast
I like it quiet
And I love to shout
When we get together, it just all works out

*She's got the money
And he's always broke
I don't like cigarettes
I like to smoke
Things in common
There just ain't one
But when we get together we have nothing but fun


TAG

Try to find it, what I'm telling you Jack
It's useless...opposites attract
