House That Rocked Lyrics - Singles - Grandmaster Flash

The house that rocked (x5) 

I was walkin' down the street,cold playin' the post 

I was takin' my time 

I was chilly the most contemplating and debating about what I should do 

I made a sharp left turn 

And there was my crew lookin' for a Def Jam in order to rock 

Because it's gonna hit the fan at 12:00 o'clock 

Then there was this flygirl,she said she wanted to know 

Why are you all dressed up with no place to go? 

She said she'd take us to a place where we could hear some hip hop 

But little did we know she meant the house that rocked 

The house that rocked(x3) 

She was a real flygirl,dressed in leather and lace 

She looked pale "Yo",I thought it was paint on her face 

She said it was the last house,corner rockin' bird lane 

But you might need a cross and a little wolfsbane 

Well we were at the door 

And when it opened inside there were freaks galore 

Their eyes glowed as if lit by an eerie light 

I said "I don't think I should have came here tonight" 

And when I asked her what was up,he door slammed and locked 

She was gonne and we were,trapped inside the house that rocked 

The house that rocked(x3) 

Zombies were on the floor and what do ya know 

They were doin' the Pee-Wee Herman,what a real creep show 

Creatures were playin' cards (Igor was cuttin' the deck) 

Somebody screamed (There's Dracula,cover your neck) 

Now Lurch was rockin' the mix and on his shirt it read 

The music hideously provided for the living dead 

Now they was illin' and that was no doubt 

But all we wanted to do was get out 

I was wishing I was chillin' back around the block 

Instead of running for my life inside the house that rocked 

The house that rocked(x3) 

It was a grizzly situation,very gruesome indeed 

And would you believe tha walls started to bleed 

Frankstein was steady scheming as he left the room 

In came the Mummy and the creature from the black Lagoon 

They said "Your time has come" you could scream and can holler 

But you're never gonna leave this little shop of horror 

You can think that it's a joke to have a heart full of fear 

But you feel that way because you're not here 

Take heed and stay away,whether you like it or not 

'Cause those who enter never leave the house that rocked 

The house that rocked (x3)
