about

Last year, I wrote a song in tribute to the horror anthology movies and TV shows I've loved since I was a kid. Each verse of the song was its own scary story, and each chorus was that story's twist ending.

"That's the Twist...Again!" is the spooky sequel. New music. New stories. New twists. Hope it doesn't send you running down the street... ' cause you never know what you will meet.

lyrics

That’s the twist again
Bet you didn’t see it coming
Twist again
That’s the twist again
Hope it doesn’t send you running
Down the street
'Cause you never know what
You will meet

A couple on vacation
Driving in the rain
Passed a creepy old motel
With tired eyes and
Muscles screaming out in pain
They got a room and went to bed
They said “Goodnight”
And both laid down their heads
The woman dreamed of
Ghosts and goblins on parade
A cocktail party of the damned
She danced with demons
Chatted up the rotting dead
It felt so real and when she
Woke she found
Black confetti all around
The bed was empty
Save a covered silver tray
And on that dish
A ghastly h'ordeuvre lay:
Her husband’s head a canapé

That’s the twist again
Bet you didn’t see it coming
Twist again
That’s the twist again
Hope it doesn’t send you running
Down the street
'Cause you never know
What you will meet

That’s the twist again
You’ve seen it all before
You knew from minute one
Whodunnit and what’s more
You wonder why they need
To ratchet up the gore
For the sequel
Now you’re looking for the door

An aging rock star wanting
One more shot at fame
Traded Satan for his soul
In return he got a shiny red guitar
And a record that went gold
He sold eternal torment for a song
The devil stood backstage
The last night of the tour
To collect his pound of flesh
The rocker knew that once
He’d finished up his set, his life was over
He played on instead
Until his calloused fingers bled
He strummed so fast his
Face turned red and then
His heart exploded in
His tattooed chest
No more encores, he was dead

That’s the twist again
Bet you didn’t see it coming
Twist again
That’s the twist again
Hope it doesn’t send you running
Down the street
'Cause you never know
What you will meet
No you never know
What you will meet
