The song opens with a description of heat 48, the dance that has reawakened in him. He says that he can't get away from dance, even if he wanted to, because it "wouldn't let" him go. He compares himself to a "dandy little fox," who is so fluid and lively that he makes him feel better if he doesn't have to look at people's faces. The song ends with a soliloquy about running away from things, but he says he's not going to do that.
