It's Midnight ET....what the heck! Lips! Lips! Lips!

[Khephra]

Michael Rennie was ill
The Day the Earth Stood Still
But he told us where we stand
And Flash Gordon was there
In silver underwear
Claude Rains was The Invisible Man
Then something went wrong
For Fay Wray and King Kong
They got caught in a celluloid jam
Then at a deadly pace
It Came From Outer Space
And this is how the message ran...


Science fiction (ooh ooh ooh) double feature
Doctor X (ooh ooh ooh) will build a creature
See androids fighting (ooh ooh ooh) Brad and Janet
Anne Francis stars in (ooh ooh ooh) Forbidden Planet
Wo oh oh oh oh oh
At the late night, double feature, picture show


I knew Leo G. Carroll
Was over a barrel
When Tarantula took to the hills
And I really got hot
When I saw Janette Scott
Fight a Triffid that spits poison and kills
Dana Andrews said prunes
Gave him the runes
And passing them used lots of skills
But When Worlds Collide
Said George Pal to his bride
I'm gonna give you some terrible thrills
Like a...


Science fiction (ooh ooh ooh) double feature
Doctor X (ooh ooh ooh) will build a creature
See androids fighting (ooh ooh ooh) Brad and Janet
Anne Francis stars in (ooh ooh ooh) Forbidden Planet
Wo oh oh oh oh oh
At the late night, double feature, picture show
I wanna go - Oh oh oh oh
To the late night, double feature, picture show
By R.K.O. - Wo oh oh oh
To the late night, double feature, picture show
In the back row - Oh oh oh oh
To the late night, double feature, picture show

4. Get out your lighters and newspapers!

Over at the Frankenstein Place

Janet Weiss In the velvet darkness
Of the blackest night
Burning bright
There's a guiding star
No matter what or who you are


Brad and Janet There's a light

Chorus Over at the Frankenstein place

Brad and Janet There's a light

Chorus Burning in the fireplace

Brad and Janet There's a light, light
In the darkness of everybody's life


Riff Raff The darkness must go
Down the river of night's dreaming
Flow morphia slow
Let the sun and light come streaming
Into my life, into my life


Brad and Janet There's a light

Chorus Over at the Frankenstein place

Brad and Janet There's a light

Chorus Burning in the fireplace
There's a light, a light


Brad and Janet In the darkness of everybody's life

2. It's astounding........

Time is fleeting;
Madness takes its toll.
But listen closely...


Not for very much longer.


I've got to keep control.
I remember doing the time-warp
Drinking those moments when
The Blackness would hit me


And the void would be calling...


Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.


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.
Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.


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.

Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.


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 pickup truck, and the devil's eyes.
He stared at me and I felt a change.
Time meant nothing, never would again.

Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.


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.
Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again

3. I don't care if it's out of order

It's my favourite song in the film, other than "Superheroes".

[Khephra]

5. That's ok...I forgive you

This is my equivilant thread to Will's "wagga wagga wagga" posts. ;-)

[Khephra]

6. Long, long day for me over here

Too tired to read up on politics right now, but I wanted to drop in and say :hi: to all my friends here!

[lazarus]

7. This one is a bit of a downer, but

still an awesome song. Can't believe it got cut out of most American showings. When I first heard it (midnight showing in London) I freaked.

Super Heroes

I've done a lot, God knows I've tried
To find the truth, I've even lied
But all I know is down inside I'm bleeding.

And Super Heroes come to feast
To taste the flesh not yet deceased
And all I know is still the beast is feeding.

And crawling on the planet's face
Some insects called the human race
Lost in time, lost in space
And meaning.

[NightTrain]

10. My VHS copy of RHPS...

...actually has "Super Heroes" in it.

Come to think of it, one of the four theaters in Connecticut that carried RHPS in the '80s and '90s also managed to find a print with that segment left in. I was surprised as hell the first night I saw "Rocky Horror" at that place!

8. this is why we love susan sarandon tho she can't sing for shit..

9. CHARLES GRAY: "What diabolical plan...

...had seized Frank's crazed imagination?"

AUDIENCE: "The same one that seized your fucking neck!"

11. My Mother's Favorite RHPS song

Sweet Transvestite

Dr. Frank-N-Furter How do you do
I see you've met my faithful handyman
He's just a little brought down because
When you knocked
He thought you were the candyman
Don't get strung out by the way I look
Don't judge a book by its cover
I'm not much of a man by the light of day
But by night I'm one hell of a lover
I'm just a sweet transvestite
From Transexual, Transylvania


Let me show you around, maybe play you a sound
You look like you're both pretty groovy
Or if you want something visual
That's not too abysmal
We could take in an old Steeve Reeves movie


Brad Majors I'm glad we caught you at home
Could we use your phone?
We're both in a bit of a hurry


Janet Weiss Right!

Brad Majors We'll just say where we are
Then go back to the car
We don't want to be any worry


Dr. Frank-N-Furter Well you got caught with a flat
Well how 'bout that
Well babies don't you panic
By the light of the night
It'll all seem alright
I'll get you a Satanic mechanic
I'm just a sweet transvestite
From Transexual, Transylvania
Why don't you stay for the night


Riff Raff Night!

Dr. Frank-N-Furter Or maybe a bite

Columbia Bite!

Dr. Frank-N-Furter I could show you my favorite obsession
I've been making a man
With blonde hair and a tan
And he's good for relieving my tension
I'm just a sweet transvestite
From Transexual, Transylvania
Hit it! Hit it!
I'm just a sweet transvestite


Chorus Sweet Transvestite!

Dr. Frank-N-Furter From Transexual

Chorus Transylvania

Dr. Frank-N-Furter So come up to the lab
And see what's on the slab
I see you shiver with antici...pation
But maybe the rain
Isn't really to blame
So I'll remove the cause
But not the symptom

[Skittles]

12. my favorite line at a RHPS viewing in Texas

Frankenfurter: IT'S NO CRIME TO GIVE YOURSELF OVER TO ABSOLUTE PLEASURE.

Someone in the audience: IT IS IN TEXAS !!!

:D

[Maccagirl]

13. Did they used to show Tim Curry's "I Do The Rock" video

before the movie where you live? Of course they showed "Paradise By The Dashboard Light", and sometimes even Curry's "Paradise Garage". Oh, those were the days!

[LuCifer]

14. Horse-brutality!?

Oh goddamn, I lost so much time (and braincells) at the Rocky that we used to have up in West Palm. Man, if it wasn't for all the pedophiles and other nutjobs, it would have been the shit!

Dr. Lu Cifer, not to be confused with Dr. Frank N Furter THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!

Edit: PS And the fucked up part is, I CAN STILL REMEMBER EVERY GODDAMN AUDIENCE LINE!!!!!!! The more things change...

[Aristus]

15. "I would like..." (What?)

"If I may..." (You may.)
"To take you..." (Where?)
"On a strange journey." (How strange was it? It was so strange they made a movie about it. Not the book! The MOVIE!)
