"The Twist" lyrics

"The Twist"
(originally by Frightened Rabbit)

Do the twist in the twisting outfit
The loose tie with, the loose limp wrists
Lift your dress enough to show me those shins
Let your hair stick to your forehead

Did you blush then when our lips touched?
I can't tell, we are already red
Am I right? Will you give me the sign?
Is that pink mist or just lit dry ice?

You twist and whisper the wrong name
I don't care, nor do my ears
And twist yourself around me
I need company, I need human heat
I need human heat

Let's pretend I'm attractive and then
You won't mind, we can twist for a while
It's the night, I can be who you like
I'll quietly leave before it gets light

You twist and whisper the wrong name
I don't care, nor do my ears
And twist yourself around me
I need company, I need human heat
I need human heat

I need human heat
I need human heat
I need human heat

Twist and whisper the right name
I'm Dave, if you please
Twist, the twist is you're just like me
You need company, you need human heat
You need human heat, human heat
You need human heat
You need human heat
