Time warp
The Time Warp is a dance from the musical The Rocky Horror Show . In the film it is used to initiate a time jump .
As a party dance , it was part of the repertoire in the 1980s and 1990s. The dancers follow the narrator's instructions.
The refrain:
- It's just a jump to the left,
- and then a step to the right,
- with your hands on your hips,
- and bring your knees in tight!
- But it's the pelvic thrust
- that really drives you insane!
- Let's do the time warp again!
- Let's do the time warp again!
- ...
- So the movements:
- Jump to the left,
- Right step,
- Hands on hips,
- Kneel down
- Push your pelvis forward three times.
Damian Davey , a member of the Rocky horror show ensemble, reached the top 10 of the British singles charts in 1989 with his version of Time Warp .
