He Shook Me Up He Took Me By Surprise Lyrics
[Verse 1: Riff-Raff (Magenta)]
It’s astounding
Time is fleeting
Madness takes its toll
But listen closely
(Not for very much longer)
I’ve got to keep control
[Pre-Chorus: Riff-Raff; Both]
I remember doing the Time Warp
Drinking those moments when
The blackness would hit me
And the void would be calling
[Hook: All]
Let’s do the Time Warp again
Let’s do the Time Warp again
[Chorus: The Criminologist; All]
It’s just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
But it’s the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane
[Hook: All]
Let’s do the Time Warp again
Let’s do the Time Warp again
[Verse 2: Magenta (Riff-Raff)]
It’s so dreamy
Oh, fantasy free me
So you can’t see me
No, not at all
In another dimension
With voyeuristic intention
Well secluded, I see all
(With a bit of a mind flip)
You’re into the time slip
(And nothing can ever be the same)
You’re spaced out on sensation
(Like you’re under sedation)
[Hook: All]
Let’s do the Time Warp again
Let’s do the Time Warp again
[Verse 3: Columbia]
Well I was walking down the street
Just a having a think
When a snake of a guy gave me an evil wink
He shook-a me up, he took me by surprise
He had a pick up truck and the devil’s eyes
He stared at me and I felt a change
Time meant nothing, never would again
[Hook: All]
Let’s do the Time Warp again
Let’s do the Time Warp again
[Chorus: The Criminologist; All]
It’s just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
But it’s the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane
[Hook: All]
Let’s do the Time Warp again
Let’s do the Time Warp again
