[FRAU, SPOKEN]
You want a twist?

[RIVERA, SPOKEN]
There's always a twist

[RIVERA]
When it begins it's always good

[FRAU]
But then it goes on and on

[BOTH]
Much longer than you ever thought it would

[FRAU]
Just when you feel connected

[RIVERA]
Here comes something unexpected

[BOTH]
There's always a twist that you've denied
You try to resist and save your pride
But there's always a twist that twists you up inside
[SINGERS]
Buppa buppa bah
Buppa buppa bah
Buh-bup puh-duh buh!
Pow! Pow!

[FRAU]
They'll promise you the stars und moon

[RIVERA]
But then put you off

[BOTH]
And off and off and off and off with "soon, babe, soon"

[RIVERA]
Just when you think you've got him

[FRAU]
Then you're right back at rock bottom

[BOTH, SINGERS]
There's always a twist that you've denied
You try to resist and save your pride
But there's always a twist that twists you up inside
(Twist you up, twist you up, twist you up, twist you up, twist!)
Choices you've made will always haunt you
You feel betrayed but how they want you
Nonchalant you're never gonna be
(Will will will will never will!)
When it begins it's always good (It's always good)
But then (But then) it goes on and on
Much longer than you ever thought it would
Just when you feel connected
Here comes something unexpected (Pow!)

There's always a twist that you've denied
You try to resist and save your pride
But there's always a twist that twists you up inside
(It twists you up!)
Twists you up inside
(It twists you up!)
Twists you up inside
