The Rocky Horror Picture Show Page #2

Synopsis: While driving home during a rain filled night, straight-laced lovebirds Brad Majors and Janet Weiss end up by chance at the castle of one Dr. Frank-N-Furter and his strange and bizarre entourage, and find that he's having a party. This is no ordinary party, no ordinary night. This is the unveiling of the doctor's latest creation: Rocky Horror, a man-made Adonis that will give absolute pleasure. Over the course of the night, Frank seduces both Brad and Janet, Janet and Rocky become biblically involved, and Dr. Everett Von Scott arrives looking for his nephew Eddie (whom Frank killed earlier in this film). This is an exceedingly grand visual and musical camp satire of the golden days of the B-movie horror and science-fiction genres. Projected along with a musical soundtrack to give audience participation a new meaning in dimension, time and space, this shall be a night that both Brad and Janet will remember for a very long time in the sexually kinky, rock 'n roll, rock-opera world of a g

Of the blackest night

Burning bright

There's a guiding star

No matter what

Or...

... who you are

There's a light

Over at the Frankenstein place

There's a light

Burning in the fireplace

There's a light, light

In the darkness

Of everybody's life

The darkness must go

Down the river

Of nights dreaming

Flow morphia slow

Let the sun

And light come streaming

Into my life

Into my life

There's a light

Over at the Frankenstein place

There's a light

Burning in the fireplace

There's a light

Light

In the darkness

Of everybody's life

And so. . .

. . .it seemed that fortune

had smiled on Brad and Janet. . .

. . .and they had found the assistance

that their plight required.

Or had they?

Brad, let's go back.

I'm cold and I'm frightened.

Just a moment, Janet.

They may have a phone.

Hello.

Hi! My name's Brad Majors.

This is my fiance, Janet Weiss.

I wondered if you might help us.

Our car broke down up the road.

Do you have a phone we might use?

You're wet.

Yes, it's raining.

Yes.

Oh.

I think, perhaps,

you better both come inside.

You're too kind.

I'm frightened.

What kind of place is this?

It's probably some kind of

hunting lodge for rich weirdos.

This way.

Are you having a party?

You've arrived on

a rather special night.

-It's one of the master's affairs.

-Oh.

-Lucky him.

-You're lucky.

He's lucky, I'm lucky,

we're all lucky!

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 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

I was walking down the street

Just 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
