Science Fiction / Double Feature
[Verse 1]
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
Doctor X will build a creature
See androids fighting Brad and Janet
Anne Francis stars in Forbidden Planet
Wo oh oh oh oh oh
At the late night, double feature, picture show
[Verse 2]
I knew Leo G. Carroll
Was over a barrel
When Tarantula took to the hills
And I really got hot
When I saw Janette Scott
Fight a Triffid that spits poison and kills
Dana Andrews said prunes
Gave him the runes
And passing them used lots of skills
But When Worlds Collide
Said George Pal to his bride
I'm gonna give you some terrible thrills
Like a…
[Chorus 2]
Science fiction (Oooh ohh ohhh) double feature (Wanna go)
Doctor X (Ooooh oooh ohhh.) will build a creature (R.K.O)
See androids fighting (Ooooh ooohhh) Brad and Janet (The back row)
Anne Francis stars in (ooh ooh ooh) Forbidden Planet
[Outro]
Wo oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
At the late night, double feature, picture show
I wanna go
To the late night, double feature, picture show
In the back row (Wo oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
To the late night, double feature, picture show
