The issue is about a group of friends who go to the party because it's the weekend and have a desire to dance and when they get to the party nobody wanted to start dancing.
CHORUS: If you're not going to dance, then why are you coming to the party? VOICE 1: It was already the weekend, I didn't have to work, my body was asking for a party and I wanted to give it to it. We got together with friends from the neighborhood and we went to a place where there was a good band to have fun and dance. The band was playing, the place was full, but no one decided to go out dancing, and I was getting desperate because time was passing, I walked to the dance floor wanting to dance, and there I began to shout without the orchestra's permission. And if you're not going to dance, why are you coming to the party? They had me tied up with p, they had me but I let go, you see. CHORUS: If you're not going to dance, then why are you coming to the party? VOICE 1: Take advantage of this moment because the orchestra is leaving right now CHORUS: If you're not going to dance, then why are you coming to the party? VOICE 1: If you're not going to dance, then why did you pay the door, you see? CHORUS: If you're not going to dance, then why are you coming to the party? VOICE 1: In the middle of the hall to dance a delicious son, what a joke. Mambo. CHORUS: If you're not going to dance, then why are you coming to the party? VOICE 1: Tell me, what's wrong, what's happening, could it be that you're missing what I have too much of? Flavor. CHORUS: Take advantage, don't miss out on dancing. VOICE 1: Take advantage, because life is only one, don't miss out on dancing, come here. CHORUS: Take advantage, don't miss out on dancing. VOICE 1: If you knew me, if you understood me, you would never hesitate to come and have fun. CHORUS: Take advantage, don't miss out on dancing. VOICE 1: Take advantage, my brother, because the party is about to end and you're left without a dance. CHORUS: Take advantage, don't miss out on dancing. VOICE 1: Make the most of it, Juanita. CHORUS: Don't miss out on dancing. VOICE 1: Pretty wallflower bud. CHORUS: Don't miss out on dancing. VOICE 1: This song is for you. CHORUS: Don't miss out on dancing. (…)
CORO: Si no vas a bailar, entonces ¿para qué vienes a la fiesta?
VOZ 1: Era ya fin de semana, no tenía que trabajar
mi cuerpo pedía fiesta y yo se la quería dar.
Nos juntamos los amigos del barrio y nos fuimos a un lugar
donde había una buena orquesta para gozar y bailar.
La orquesta estaba tocando, estaba lleno el lugar,
pero nadie se decide para salir a bailar,
y yo que me desespero porque el tiempo está pasando
a la pista voy andando con deseos de bailar,
y allí comencé a gritar sin permiso de la orquesta
¿Y si no van a bailar para qué vienen a la fiesta?
Me tenían amarrado con p, me tenían pero me solté, tú ves.
CORO: Si no vas a bailar entonces ¿para qué vienes a la fiesta?
VOZ 1: Aprovechen este momento que ahorita se va la orquesta
CORO: Si no vas a bailar entonces ¿para qué vienes a la fiesta?
VOZ 1: Si no vas a bailar para qué ¿pagaste la puerta tú ves?
CORO: Si no vas a bailar entonces ¿para qué vienes a la fiesta?
VOZ 1: En medio del salón a bailar un rico son, qué vacilón.
Mambo.
CORO: Si no vas a bailar entonces ¿para qué vienes a la fiesta?
VOZ 1: Dime ¿qué te pasa, qué es lo que sucede, será que te falta lo que a mí me sobra? Sabor.
CORO: Aprovecha, no te quedes sin bailar.
VOZ 1: Aprovecha que la vida es una sola,
no te quedes sin bailar, echa para acá.
CORO: Aprovecha, no te quedes sin bailar.
VOZ 1: Si me conocieras, si me comprendieras,
jamás dudarías en venir a vacilar.
CORO: Aprovecha, no te quedes sin bailar.
VOZ 1: Aprovéchalo, mi hermano, que la fiesta va a acabar
y tú te quedas sin bailar.
CORO: Aprovecha, no te quedes sin bailar.
VOZ 1: Aprovéchalo, Juanita.
CORO: No te quedes sin bailar.
VOZ 1: Lindo capullo de alhelí.
CORO: No te quedes sin bailar.
VOZ 1: Este son es para ti.
CORO: No te quedes sin bailar.
