Lyrics

Why'd you run away?
Don't you like my style?
Why don't you come and play?
I guarantee a great big smile
I come from the imagination
And I'm here strictly by your invocation
So what'd you say?
Why don't we dance a while?
I'm the heart of swing
I'm the twist and shout
When ya gotta sing
When ya gotta let it out
You call me and I come a-runnin'
I turn the music on – I bring the fun in
Now we're partying
That's what it's all about
'Cause I know what you feel, girl
I know just what you feel, girl
All these melodies
They go on too long, aah
Then that energy
Starts to come on way too strong
All those hearts laid open – that must sting
Plus some customers just start combusting
That's the penalty
When life is but a song
You brought me down and doomed this town
So when we blow this scene
Back we will go to my kingdom below
And you will be my queen
'Cause I know what you feel, girl
(No you see, you and me)
(Wouldn't be very regal)
I'll make it real, girl
(What I mean, I'm fifteen)
(So this "queen" thing's illegal)
I can bring whole cities to ruin
And still have time to get a soft shoe in
(Well, that's great, but i'm late)
(And I'd hate to delay her)
Something's cooking, I'm at the griddle
I bought Nero his very first fiddle
(She'll get pissed if I'm missed)
(See, my sister's the Slayer—)
Now we're partying
That's what it's all about
