The Denial Twist Songtext

von The White Stripes

If you think that a kiss is all in the lips
Come on, you got it all wrong, man
And if you think that our dance was all in the hips
Oh well, then do the twist
If you think that all the romance is all in the fingers
Grab hold of the soul where the memory lingers
And make sure to never do it with the fingers
'cause i'll tell everyone in the world

That he was thinking about the girl
Yeah, that he was thinking about the girl

Oh, a lot of people get confused and abused
Real easy when it comes to love
They start putting on their shoes and walking out
And singing, "boy, I think i've had enough"
Just because she makes a big rumpus
She don't mean to be mean
Or hurt you or your brothers, boy
Take a tip and do yourself a little sample
Take a mountain, turn it into a mole

Just by playing a different role
Yeah, by playing a different role

Oh, the boat, yeah, you know she's rocking it
And the truth, well, you know there's no stopping it
Oh, the boat, yeah, you know she's still rocking it
And the truth, well, you know there's no stopping it

So what somebody left you in a rut
And wants to be the one who's in control
But the feeling that you're under
Can really make you wonder
How the hell she could be so cold
Denial dance, denial of truth
And it's hidden in the wisdom in the back of your tooth
You need to spit it out in the telephone booth
While you call everyone that you know

And ask her where do you think she goes
Oh yeah, where do you suppose she goes?

Oh, the tooth, well, you know there's no stopping it
And the boat, well, you know she's still rocking it
Yeah, the boat, well, you know she's still rocking it
And the tooth, yeah, you know there's no stopping it

You recognise the effects and effect that it's causing
When she rocks the boat
But it's the cars hitting on the cardinal laws
'bout the proper place to hang her coat
So you, the cutest little hitting and the son plays
The role of the lost little kitten but you should know
That the doctors were kidding
She's been singing it all along

But you were hearing a different song
Yeah, you were hearing a different song
But you were hearing a different song
