Imperial Twist

I was pro-communist and extremely pro-American
Because I really loved rock and roll

Rock and roll

Nobody forced us, to say: You should listen to that
We came in naturally

We liked the music and we wanted to reproduce it

Can you give the world a twist
Just by doin’ the twist?
At the moment the bomb went off
They were playin’ purple haze

I met robert at his restaurant
Septième arrondissement
The doors still echo in the jungle

Hе said: Your mother brought back 45s
From Paris in ‘65
And we learnеd them note for note

Some broken English, rolling stones
Fenders, girls, and dope
America provides

Oh, uh-oh, oh-o-o
Saigon teens
Oh, uh-oh, oh-o-o
Saigon teens

Can you give the world a twist
Just by doin’ the twist?
Can you save the world with acid
Rock?

I didn’t know my mother’s maiden name

That time in Texas when we was detained

And I’ve been back to ol’ saigon
But how much of you is lost
When they change your name?

Oh, uh-oh, oh-o-o
Saigon teens
Oh, uh-oh, oh-o-o
Saigon teens
Uh, uh-oh, oh-o-o
Saigon teens
Oh, uh-oh, oh-o-o
Saigon teens

And it was half a world away
The band got back on stage
Four decades to the day
Purple haze
