Verse 1
once upon a time there was this guy called Johnny
he was kinda shy and so in love with connie
but so was O'Smarty, who played it cool
the king of the party, but oh what a fool
Chorus
He didn't know how to twist
He didn't know how to make a girl insist
He didn't know how to move, he didn't feel the groove
He didn't know how to twist
Twist, he didn't know how to twist
He didn't know how to move, he didn't feel the groove
He didn't know how to twist
Verse 2
Once upon a night there was this guy called Johnny
He was kinda high and dancing with his honey
The queen of the party proclaimed him king
While poor old O'Smarty was left in the ring
Chorus
He didn't know how to twist
He didn't know how to make a girl insist
He didn't know how to move, he didn't feel the groove
He didn't know how to twist
Twist, he didn't know how to twist
He didn't know how to move, he didn't feel the groove
He didn't know how to twist
Hit it, Johnny
a twist of love
a twist of pain
a twist of me and you
a twist of things you can't explain
will make your dreams come true
be sure you know how to twist
be sure you know how to make a girl insist
be sure you know how to move, be sure you feel the groove
be sure you know how to twist
Oh, oh...
twist, be sure you know how to twist
be sure you know how to move, be sure you feel the groove
be sure you know how to twist
be sure you know how to move, be sure you feel the groove
be sure you know how to twist
