"Lead someone a merry/pretty dance" = dẫn nhảy -> gây khó khăn, trở ngại cho ai/ làm phiền ai. Cũng có thể nói "someone leads you a dance" hoặc "leads you a merry chase". 

Ví dụ 
Surprise your little one with a knock on the bedroom door from Santa’s elves who will lead you on a merry dance to La Mon’s Winter Wonderland. 

On their quest (hành trình) to perfect a tongue sandwich, Max’s dad’s drone (flycam) is destroyed, leading them on a merry dance around the city to get it replaced - which takes in some pretty eye-opening (bắt mắt) stuff for a 45 year old film critic, let alone three dorky tweens. 

The Connor Beasley-ridden speedster (tay đua ngựa tốc độ) was backed (ủng hộ) as if defeat was out of question though, starting as the 4-1 favourite, and led his 21 rivals on a merry dance as he burst out of the stalls (chuồng) before forging (vượt) a purposeful path down the centre of the course.
