Boy not getting up for a dance (10)
I believe the answer is:
charleston
'a dance' is the definition.
(charleston is a kind of dance)
'boy not getting up' is the wordplay.
'boy' becomes 'charles' (**).
'getting up' says the letters should be written backwards.
'not' in reverse letter order is 'ton'.
'charles'+'ton'='CHARLESTON'
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for charleston that I've seen before include "Dance making" , "Town of South Carolina which gave its name to a 1920s dance craze" , "Lively dance - then carols (anag)" , "US city - 1920s' dance" , "Nineteen twenties dance" .)
