We Like To Be Frightened Lyrics - Robert Calvert

With your complicated apparatus 

In your elaborate laboratory 

Doctor Frankenstein won't you create us 

Something terrifying for us to see 

And ooh, we like to be frightened 

We like to see something that takes away our breath 

Now ooh, we like to be frightened 

We like to see something that scares us half to death 

Ooh-ooh-ooh 

With your dangerous dental arrangement 

In your creepy old crumbling chateau 

Count Dracula showed us what "strange" meant 

When you started in talking so slow 

And ooh, we like to be frightened 

We like to see something that takes away our breath 

Now ooh, we like to be frightened 

We like to see something that scares us half to death 

Ooh-ooh-ooh 

And when I take my baby to a movie show 

It's got to be a horror flick or she won't go 

I just want to tell you that it's out of sight 

When it starts getting scary and she's holding me tight 

(Hold me tight now!) 

With your split-personality potion 

That covers all your body with hair 

Doctor Jekyll, won't you go through the motions 

So Mister Hyde can give us a scare? 

And ooh, we like to be frightened 

We like to see something that takes away our breath 

Now ooh, we like to be frightened 

We like to see something that scares us half to death 

Ooh-ooh-ooh 

Ooh-ooh-ooh 

Ooh-ooh-ooh 

Ooh-ooh-ooh
