Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's astounding
Time is fleeting
Madness takes its toll
But listen closely
Not for very much longer
I've got to keep control
[Verse 2]
I remember doing the Time Warp
Drinking those moments when
The blackness would hit me
And the void would be calling
[Chorus]
Let's do the Time Warp again
Let's do the Time Warp again
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Let's do the Time Warp again
Let's do the Time Warp again
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
With a bit of a mind flip
You're into the time slip
Nothing can ever be the same
You're spaced out on sensation
Like you're under sedation
[Chorus]
Let's do the Time Warp again
Let's do the Time Warp again
[Verse 5]
Well, I was trotting down the street just a-having a think
When a snake of a guy gave me an evil wink
Well, he shook me up, he took me by surprise
He had a pickup truck and the devil's eyes
He stared at me and I felt a change
Time meant nothing, never would again
[Chorus]
Let's do the Time Warp again
Let's do the Time Warp again
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Let's do the Time Warp again
Let's do the Time Warp again
