When a baby feels super sad but still wants to twist
I got a sad little dance that will grant that twisted wish
let your legs go loose and let your emotions out
stick out your lip swivel your hip twist and pout

time for bed but the twist party rages on
emotionally fragile and twistin' 'till the break of dawn
cryin' and dancin' is what this is all about
stick out your lip swivel your hip twist and pout
stick out your lip swivel your hip twist and pout

any other baby would think about taking a nap
any other baby would find a bed and collapse
even though baby is crying it's poor eyes out
it can still do the twist and pout

it's been a long (long) long (long) time since you started the day
tears on your dancing shoes are stainin' the suede
blow you runny nose cry and scream and shout
stick out your lip swivel your hip twist and pout
stick out your lip swivel your hip twist and pout
stick out your lip swivel your hip
