Grandmaster Flash - House That Rocked Lyrics
Words: n.glover, l.dukes, r.wheeler music: l.smith arranged by: j.saddler - 1987 from the album ba-dop-boom-bangThe house that rocked (x5)I was walkin down the street,cold playin the postI was takin my timeI was chilly the most contemplating and debating about what I should doI made a sharp left turnAnd there was my crew lookin for a def jam in order to rockBecause its gonna hit the fan at 12:00 oclockThen there was this flygirl,she said she wanted to knowWhy are you all dressed up with no place to go?She said shed take us to a place where we could hear some hip hopBut little did we know she meant the house that rockedThe house that rocked(x3)She was a real flygirl,dressed in leather and laceShe looked pale yo,i thought it was paint on her faceShe said it was the last house,corner rockin bird laneBut you might need a cross and a little wolfsbaneWell we were at the doorAnd when it opened inside there were freaks galoreTheir eyes glowed as if lit by an eerie lightI said I dont think I should have came here tonightAnd when I asked her what was up,he door slammed and lockedShe was gonne and we were,trapped inside the house that rockedThe house that rocked(x3)Zombies were on the floor and what do ya knowThey were doin the pee-wee herman,what a real creep showCreatures were playin cards (igor was cuttin the deck)Somebody screamed (theres dracula,cover your neck)Now lurch was rockin the mix and on his shirt it readThe music hideously provided for the living deadNow they was illin and that was no doubtBut all we wanted to do was get outI was wishing I was chillin back around the blockInstead of running for my life inside the house that rockedThe house that rocked(x3)It was a grizzly situation,very gruesome indeedAnd would you believe tha walls started to bleedFrankstein was steady scheming as he left the roomIn came the mummy and the creature from the black lagoonThey said your time has come you could scream and can hollerBut youre never gonna leave this little shop of horrorYou can think that its a joke to have a heart full of fearBut you feel that way because youre not hereTake heed and stay away,whether you like it or notcause those who enter never leave the house that rockedThe house that rocked (x3)
