Science Fiction - Double Feature Lyrics

(Richard O'Brien, lips of Patricia Quinn)
Michael Rennie was ill,
The day the earth stood still,
But he told us, where we stand.
And Flash Gordon was there, in silver underwear
Claude Rains was the invisible man.
Then something went wrong,
For Fay Wray and King Kong,
They got caught in a celluloid jam.
Then at a deadly pace, it came from outer space
And this is how the message ran.
Chorus:
Science fiction - double feature,
Dr.X will build a creature.
See androids fighting Brad and Janet.
Anne Francis stars in forbidden planet.
Oh - at the late night,
Double feature picture show.
I knew Leo G. Carrol was over a barrel,
When tarantula took to the hills.
And I got really hot when I saw Janet Scott,
Fight a triffed that spits poison and kills.
Dana Andrews said prunes
gave him the runes,
And passing them used lots of skills.
And when worlds collide, said George Pal to his Bride:
I'm going to give you some terrible thrills,
Like a
Chorus
I wanna go,
Oh - to the late night double feature
Picture show by RKO.
Oh - to the late night double feature
Picture show in the back row.
Oh - to the late night double feature
Picture show.
