Well there's going to be a freaker's ball (ha ha)
Tonight at the Freaker's Hall
And you know you're invited one and all (uh oh)
/ D - - - / E7 - - - / A7 - - D7 /
Come on babys, grease your lipsÂ
Grab your hats and swing your hips
And don't forget to bring your whips
We're going to the freakers' ball (yes)
/ D - / E7 - / A7 - / - D /
Blow your whistle, and bang your gong
Roll up something to take along
It feels so good, it must be wrong
We're freaking at the freakers' ball
Well all the fags and the dykes are boogying together
The leather freaks are dressed in all kinds of leather
The greatest of the sadists and the masochists too
Screaming please hit me and I'll hit you
/ A - / D - / E - / A - /
The FBI is dancing with the junkies
All the straights are swinging with the funkies
Across the floor and up the wall
We're freaking at the freakers' ball, y'all
We're freaking at the freakers' ball
/ G - / D B7 / E - / A7 B7 / A D /
Everybody's kissing each other
Brother with sister, son with mother
Smear my body up with butter
And take me to the freaker's ball
Pass that roach please, and pour the wine
I'll kiss yours if you'll kiss mine
I'm gonna boogie until I go blind
Freaking at the freakers' ball
White ones, black ones, yellow ones and red ones
Necrophiliacs looking for dead ones
The greatest of the sadists and the masochists too
Screaming please hit me and I'll hit you
Everybody balling in batches
Pyromaniacs striking matches
I'm going to itch me where it scratches
Freaking at the freakers' ball, y'all
We're freaking at the freakers' ball
We're freaking at the freakers' ball
