DR. FRANK-N-FURTER:
How do you do
I see you've met my faithful handyman
He's just a little brought down because
When you knocked
He thought you were the candyman
Don't get strung out by the way I look
Don't judge a book by its cover
I'm not much of a man by the light of day
But by night I'm one hell of a lover
I'm just a sweet transvestite
From Transexual, Transylvania
Let me show you around, maybe play you a sound
You look like you're both pretty groovy
Or if you want something visual
That's not too abysmal
We could take in an old Steeve Reeves movie
BRAD:
I'm glad we caught you at home
Could we use your phone?
We're both in a bit of a hurry
JANET: Right!
BRAD:
We'll just say where we are
Then go back to the car
We don't want to be any worry
DR. FRANK-N-FURTER:
Well you got caught with a flat
Well how 'bout that
Well babies don't you panic
By the light of the night
It'll all seem alright
I'll get you a Satanic mechanic
I'm just a sweet transvestite
From Transexual, Transylvania
Why don't you stay for the night
RIFF RAFF: Night!
DR. FRANK-N-FURTER: Or maybe a bite
COLUMBIA: Bite!
DR. FRANK-N-FURTER:
I could show you my favorite obsession
I've been making a man
With blonde hair and a tan
And he's good for relieving my tension
I'm just a sweet transvestite
From Transexual, Transylvania
Hit it! Hit it!
I'm just a sweet transvestite (Sweet Transvestite)
From Transexual (Transylvania)
So come up to the lab
And see what's on the slab
I see you shiver with anticipation
But maybe the rain
Isn't really to blame
So I'll remove the cause
But not the symptom
