|
All lyrics transcribed from memory and verified against the soundtrack to the 1975 film The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Note that three of the songs presented here (Sword of Damocles, Once in a While, and Planet Schmanet, Janet) are not normally on most versions of the soundtrack album. Also, the version of The Time Warp present on all soundtrack albums is shorter than the movie version since they cut out Columbia's tap dancing and one of the refrains. |
