about

The second track from One Million Fuzztone Guitars / Skin Patrol from their forthcoming 2021 album, a reworking of the unrecorded/released Skin Patrol classic 'The Twist'. We hope you like it!

Originally deriving from the 70's pulp fiction classic 'Only Lovers Left Alive' it is a dystopian vision of the future with street revolution viewed through the prism of a quarter mile top Fuel dragstrip burnout.

"The lights are going out
And they’re never coming on again"

lyrics

The Twist

Streetfight
Streetfight
Streetfight
Survival
In my
In my
In my
New Age

They wanna teach you
To do the Twist
We’re here to tell ya’
It ain’t like this

Feel the ground
Feel the ground
Feel the ground
It’s moving
In my
In my
In my
New Age

They wanna teach you
To do the Twist
We’re here to tell ya’
It ain’t like this

Hear the silence
Hear the silence
Hear the silence
Here it comes
In my
In my
In my
New Age

They wanna teach you
To do the Twist
We’re here to tell ya’
It ain’t like this

The lights are going out
The lights are going out
The lights are going out
And they’re never coming on again
Never, never
Coming back on
Never, never
Coming back on
Never, never, never
Coming back on
Never, never, never
Coming back on

Do the Molotov Cocktail
On the boulevard
Burn your quarter mile baby
You know it ain’t so hard
Shake it baby shake it
Shake it baby shake it
Shake it baby shake it
Shake it baby shake it
