Doin’ the Twist

The mambo's dead, the minuet has had it
You'd better strike 'em off your list
And now a large kind of charge has been at it
It's called doin' the twist

You beat the beat with your feet and you fool it
You get a lift when you don't resist
You start to move it then you groove it and you cool it
It's called doin' the twist

You twist on down, lazy
Come uptown, crazy
Like the fox and Suzy Rabbit
Jump and nab it, scratch and grab it

You've got to admit you feel proud and you should
Choreographically, I insist
The one you dig digs you big and you know it
It's called doin' the twist
