Lyrics for Michael as interpreted by _valerie

Michael Lyrics
This is where I'll be
so heavenly
so come and dance with me Michael

So sexy, you're sexy
come and dance with me Michael

I'm all that you see, you want to see
come and dance with me Michael

so close now, so close now
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
so come and dance with me

Michael you're the boy with all the leather hips
Sticky hair, sticky hips, stubble on my sticky lips
Michael you're the only one I'd ever want
only one I'd ever want
only one I'd ever want
Beautiful boys on a beautiful dancefloor
Michael you're dancing like a beautiful dance-whore
Michael waiting on a silver platter now...
and nothing matters now

This is what I am, I am a man
come and dance with me Michael

so strong now, it's strong now
come and dance with me Michael

I'm all that you'll be, you'll ever see
so come and dance with me, MIchael

So close now, you're close now
Come and dance with me, Comeanddancewithme.
COME AND DANCE WITH ME

Michael you're the boy with l l l leather hips
Sticky hair. Sticky lips. Stubble on my sticky hips.
Michael you're the only one I'd ever want
only one I'd ever want
only one I'd ever want
Beautiful boys on a beautiful dancefloor
Michael you're dancing like a beautiful dance-whore
Michael waiting on a silver platter now...
and nothing matters now

Me and my friend had this CD on in the background while we were playing XBOX one night....this song came on...my response being, "Uh...what's going on here?". I can't say I'm a fan of the blatent homoeroticism here, either...I think I'm going with geoffk's plan...

Wow. It bothers you that much? A song is really going to "threaten your sexuality?"
I really dig this song, it's one of my favorites on the CD. Oh no-maybe I'll turn gay! [/sarcasm]

Look, don't get me wrong. I heart vagina. But this song is just really, really good. Honestly, I wish it weren't so difficult NOT to sing along. Funny thing, that one of the best songs on the cd has the most divisive lyrics. Just imagine a girl named Michael. Have you ever met a girl named Michael? No? Well, tell yourself she exists, and she is hell of beautiful.

I agree with wayne_ozacrot, it shouldn't matter if it has gay subject matter if it's a catchy-good-as-hell song. You just have to dance and sing along, and if you can't feel it, then that's your problem.

WOW. I wish I was insecure enough about my sexuality that a SONG would threaten it. This is a really good song. I thought people were suspose to be open minded these days.

Guess not.

I think it's catchy as hell...and I just adore the lyrics. That's why I keep coming back to this page, after all. I think it's sick when someone "feels their sexuality is threatened" listening to a song.

‘Michael’ may at first appear to be a frank exploration of homoeroticism ("Michael you’re dancing like a beautiful dance whore") but really Alex is just playing at sexual roles in the same way Morrissey enjoyed 20 years ago.

Oh, my friend Michael says this song's about him...right.
I read in an article on www.franzferdinand.org that it's actually about something Alex witnessed. One of his friends got drunk and this friend and Michael...well, you read the song.

This song is actually about a homosexual called michael (although that may not be his name to keep his identity secret) who lives in glasgow and is very good friends with the band.

Franz Ferdinand are an amazing band, who give a great live performance - if you do like them, check out the early release Darts of Pleasure, the b-sides are pure genious.

I think this is an awsome song by Franz Ferdinand, even if it is a gay love song. (which it is) It tells the story of a buddy of Alex's who just went all out at a dance club one night with another guy.

if you're a girl, just think of it like this: if you have a crush on michael, when you listen to this song, you can dedicate it to him. secretly. i always get these loveyish songs and they make me thing of my crushes. if that makes any sense, if not, i'll sound like a dork.
