We Like to Be Frightened Lyrics


With your complicated apparatus
In your elaborate laboratory
Doctor Frankenstein won't you create us
Something terrifying for us to seeAnd 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-oohWith your dangerous dental arrangement
In your creepy old crumbling chateau
Count Dracula showed us what "strange" meant
When you started in talking so slowAnd 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-oohAnd 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

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Robert Calvert is best known as the on-off frontman of influential rock group Hawkwind. Robert was born in 1945 in Pretoria, South Africa. His family moved to Kent in England in 1947. He grew up wanting to be a fighter pilot but ended up a writer, an enthusiastic participant in the 1960s London psychedelia subculture.
After meeting Hawkwind co-founder Dave Brock in 1970, Robert joined the underground icons as resident poet, reading his work amid strobes and light cascades on stage.
