In honor of Halloween, I rewrite a couple of Rocky Horror Picture show classics, The Time Warp and Touch A Touch A Touch Me.
Let me know how I did.
The Time Warp-rewrite
It's astonding
How fast this romance is fleeting
Bittterness is taking its toll
You pull me closer
But not for very much longer
Cause our love has grown
Out of control
No good times left to remember
We're trapped in a time warp
You spend all your moments
Endlessly drinking
In the blackness you betray me
And now my bags are packed
Finally to be leaving
Cause I can't do the time warp again
I can't do the time warp again
There's nothing left of us left
Step back, now
Get your hands off my hips
You smother me in
Just too tight
Broken trust
It's really driven me insane
And so....
I can't do the time warp again
I can't do the time warp again
Whatever happened to my Mr. Dreamy?
Oh, please just free me
No you'll never understand
No, not at all
So far apart
You're in another dimension
With wicked intention
The truth is no longer secluded
I've seen all
Made my mind flip
Now my emotions are taking a dip
And nothing will ever be the same
Cause you've a spaced out sensation
Living your life under too heavy a sedation
No, I can't do the time warp again
I can't do the time warp again
It's been Hell walking down your street
Loving a snake of a guy
With an evil wink
Picked me up in your truck
OOh you had the devil's eyes
After all that's been
Between you and me
I've felt the change
Now love don't mean nothing
And it never will again
Chorus
No, I can't do the time warp again
No, no, I can't do the time warp again

Don't Touch A Touch A Touch Me
I'm feelin' we're done in
Useless
We can't win
Never felt so defeated before
You mean we?
Uh huh
I know it's no use getting
Into any more heavy romancing
It'll only lead to trouble and backstabbing
Now, all I know is we gotta let go
There's been too much blood
I want no more
No more more more!
Please put up no resistance
Just keep your distance
I've got no itch
You need to scratch
I need none of your assistance
So, oh
Don't touch a touch a touch me
It only makes me feel dirty
You don't thrill me
Just chill me
You don't fulfill me
Just leave me
Creature of the night
Love no more grows
Why keep up this silly pose?
I'll tell you up
And I'll tell you down
Down, down, down!
We're holding onto
Only the smallest fraction
Of our old main attraction
C'mon
Make a break, man
Take the right action
Chorus
Creature of the night
Creature of the night
Creature of the night
Creature of the night
Creature of the night
Creature of the night
You know together we're just not right
Creature of the night
