lyrics

GORILLA TWIST
(Duffy)

WE GOT A NEW DANCE AND IT’S GONNA BE GREAT
THE GREATEST DANCE IN THE EMPIRE STATE
FIND YOURSELF A PARTNER, WHOEVER YOU SCROUNGE
MAKE BELIEVE YOU’’RE TWISTING AT THE PEPPERMINT LOUNGE

MONKEYS DANCING IN THE MIST
NOW YOU’RE DOING THE GORILLA TWIST

LISTEN TO THE MUSIC AND FIND YOUR GROOVE
BREAK A SWEAT, BUST A SKULL ISLAND MOVE
TWIST IN THE CLOUDS ’TIL THE BREAK OF DAY
TWIST WITH MY BABY, THE LOVELY FAY WRAY

MONKEYS DANCING IN THE MIST
NOW YOU’RE DOING THE GORILLA TWIST

SLICK YOUR HAIR BACK WITH AXLE GREASE
IRON YOUR PANTS WITH A SIMIAN CREASE
TWIST A NEW ASSHOLE FOR BIG APPLE TOWN
TWIST UNTIL THE BIPLANES SHOOT YOU DOWN

MONKEYS DANCING IN THE MIST
NOW YOU’RE DOING THE GORILLA TWIST

THE BULLETS ARE FLYING, LAY DOWN MY GIRL
MADE IT, MA, TOP OF THE WORLD
TWISTING IN HEAVEN ’TIL THE MOMENT I FELL
IF ANYBODY WANTS ME I’LL BE TWISTING IN HELL

MONKEYS DANCING IN THE MIST
NOW YOU’RE DOING THE GORILLA TWIST
