Lyrics and Chords


[Rocky Horror Picture Show]

Columbia
It was great when it all began
I was a regular Frankie fan
But it was over when he had the plan
To start a-workin' on a muscle man
Now the only thing that gives me hope
Is my love of a certain dope
Rose tints my world
Keeps me safe from my trouble and pain

/ C - / F C / - - / D G / C - / F C / - G / F C / 

Rocky
I'm just seven hours old
Truly beautiful to behold
And somebody should be told
My libido hasn't been controlled
Now the only thing I've come to trust
Is an orgasmic rush of lust
Rose tints my world
Keeps me safe from my trouble and pain

Brad
It's beyond me, help me Mommy
I'll be good, you'll see
Take this dream away
What's this, let's see, I feel sexy
What's come over me
Whoo, here it comes again

/ F - Fm - / C - / / F - Fm - / C - / - G /

Janet
Who-o-oa, I feel released
Bad times deceased
My confidence has increased
Reality is here
The game has been disbanded
My mind has been expanded
It's a gas that Frankie's landed
His lust is so sincere

Frank
Whatever happened to Fay Wray
That delicate, satin-draped frame
As it clung to her thigh, how I started to cry
'Cause I wanted to be dressed just the same

/ C Am / F G / FG CAm / F G /

Give yourself over to absolute pleasure
Swim the warm waters of sins of the flesh
Erotic nightmares beyond any measure
And sensual daydreams to treasure forever
Can't you just see it, wo-o-oh

/ F Fm C C7 / / / F Fm C G / G - G7 - /

Don't dream it, be it, don't dream it, be it (4x)
{Continues through Dr. Scott}

/ C Am F G / :

Dr. Scott (spoken)
Ach, we've got to get out of this trap
Before this decadence saps our wills
I've got to be strong und try to hang on
Or else my mind may well snap
Und my life will be lived - for the thrills

Brad: It's beyond me, help me mommy
Janet: God bless Lily St. Cyr

Frank
My my my, my my my my my
My my my my my-y
I'm a wild and an untamed thing
I'm a bee with a deadly sting
You get a hit and your mind goes ping
Your heart'll thump and your blood will sing
So let the party and the sounds rock on
We're gonna shake it 'til the life has gone
Rose tint my world, keep me safe from my trouble and pain

/ C7 - / / F - / Bb F / - - / G C7 / F - / Bb F / - C Bb C F - /

All
We're a wild and an untamed thing
We're a bee with a deadly sting
You get a hit and your mind goes ping
Your heart'll thump and your blood will sing
So let the party sounds rock on
We're gonna shake it 'til the life has gone
Rose tint our world, keep us safe from our trouble and pain

{One more time}

Riff Raff
Frank N' Furter, it's all over
Your mission is failure, your lifestyle's too extreme
I'm your new commander, you now are my prisoner
We return to Transylvania, prepare the transit beam

/ Bb - Bbm - / F - - F7 / Bb - Bbm - / F - - - C /
