311: The Dance vamp?

Would someone please translate what's being said at the end of this album version?
Starting with the part where he says something like "I know ytou're not going to stand there acting like you don't care..."

Pretty please? Thanks!

Brilliant f*cking stuff. This is the kind of raw emotion I love to hear. Forget Call My Name... even The One. It has a smooth melody like The Beautiful Ones, and then changes into a passionate and raw climactic ending, just like... ahum... The Beautiful Ones.

Great album. I'm completely happy!!!!! cool cool

That's *close* to what I think I'm hearing. I would say that he's singing "anotherrrrr" rather than "another her" which wouldn't make sense. I think he's just drawing out the word.

This is the kind of passion and emotion missing from other songs on the album, and I love/hate the abrupt ending of "The Dance" because it leaves you wanting more. It should've ENDED the album. It doens't seque well into "Get on the Boat" which has a altogether different vibe.

The Dance is the fuckin shit, and i agree it should have closed the lp. I like Get on the Boat, but it doesnt sound good after The Dance, it wouldve been cool if the tracks switch track position, it would be like a modern day Gonna be a beautiful segwaying in2 Adore. FUCK i love The Dance.
