Album

Back to Our Future

Alvin:
Come on, Simon
Do The Alvin Twist

Simon:
Delighted

Alvin:
Come on, Theodore
How do you resist?

Theodore:
Hee hee hee, I can't

Alvin:
You gotta twist way up
You gotta twist way down
You gotta jump
Turn and twist around
Everybody, do The Alvin Twist

Here we go now
Listen to the beat
Once you got it
Start to move your feet

You gotta move your butt
You gotta move your knee
Come on, relax, do the twist with me
Everybody, do The Alvin Twist

Lean way back, lean way in
Turn and twist 'til
Your head starts spinning

You look good, you look fine
Just keep a-twisting
Like a honeysuckle vine

Twisting everywhere you go
From old Boston to the Alamo

If you wanna be smart
If you wanna be wise
Take up your fun and your exercise
Everybody, do The Alvin Twist

Let's go / Here we go

Lean way back, lean way in
Turn and twist 'til
Your head starts spinning

You look good, you look fine
Just keep a-twisting
Like a honeysuckle vine

Twisting everywhere you go
From old Boston to the Alamo

If you wanna be smart
If you wanna be wise
Take up your fun and your exercise
Everybody, do The Alvin Twist

Let's go / Here we go
