Very meaningful lyrics by Red Symons. How did he think of this song? Did he used to go to the cinema and do this type of stuff when he was growing up? Which cinema did he go to and do these things? “Slip into a cinema and give yourself a treat So better take your raincoat, could be sticky on the seat Ah, ah Open up you Twisties and open up your fly Pictures start to flicker as your hand moves down your thigh Ah, ah If your mother knew what you were doing She'd probably hang her head and cry And if she thought that you were whipping the dripping She'd give you a belt, extract all the teeth of your fly Munchy Munchy Twisties, the shorts are such a drag Make a little opening in the other end of your bag Ah, ah Now put your Twisties right down there in your lap No one ever guesses your whatsit's in the pack Ah, ah If your mother knew what you were doing She'd probably hang her head and cry And if she thought that you were whipping the dripping She'd give you a belt, extract all the teeth of your fly Better get a grip on yourself You better pull yourself together Better get a grip on yourself You better pull yourself together Better get a grip on yourself You better pull yourself together Better get a grip on yourself You better pull yourself together Better get a grip on yourself You better pull yourself together Better get a grip on yourself You better pull yourself together Picture's almost over but still you're not quite there John Wayne pulls his gun out and you wish he'd some to spare Ah, ah And then they turn the lights on and people start to stare You find you've got a boot full and your coat's stuck to the chair Ah, ah If your mother knew what you were doing She'd probably hang her head and cry And if she thought that you were whipping the dripping She'd give you a belt, extract all the teeth of your fly.”

“Slip into a cinema and give yourself a treat
So better take your raincoat, could be sticky on the seat
Ah, ah
Open up you Twisties and open up your fly
Pictures start to flicker as your hand moves down your thigh
Ah, ah
If your mother knew what you were doing
She'd probably hang her head and cry
And if she thought that you were whipping the dripping
She'd give you a belt, extract all the teeth of your fly
Munchy Munchy Twisties, the shorts are such a drag
Make a little opening in the other end of your bag
Ah, ah
Now put your Twisties right down there in your lap
No one ever guesses your whatsit's in the pack
Ah, ah
If your mother knew what you were doing
She'd probably hang her head and cry
And if she thought that you were whipping the dripping
She'd give you a belt, extract all the teeth of your fly
Better get a grip on yourself
You better pull yourself together
Better get a grip on yourself
You better pull yourself together
Better get a grip on yourself
You better pull yourself together
Better get a grip on yourself
You better pull yourself together
Better get a grip on yourself
You better pull yourself together
Better get a grip on yourself
You better pull yourself together
Picture's almost over but still you're not quite there
John Wayne pulls his gun out and you wish he'd some to spare
Ah, ah
And then they turn the lights on and people start to stare
You find you've got a boot full and your coat's stuck to the chair
Ah, ah
If your mother knew what you were doing
She'd probably hang her head and cry
And if she thought that you were whipping the dripping
She'd give you a belt, extract all the teeth of your fly.”
