Helter Skelter

The White Album, The White Album, The White Album!

It never stops to impress me, the incredible variations in The Beatles songs, how innovative and influencial they've been and still are. Just listen to this song, it was released on The White Album in 1968, just five years after their enormous break-through with I Want To Hold Your Hand and She Loves You. I mean, some people goes on writing the same stuff for 50 years, The Beatles only existed for ten years but there is nothing they didn't write. And one more thing: they were first!

Helter Skelter - The Beatles


When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide
Where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
Till I get to the bottom and I see you again.

Do you, don't you want me to love you
I'm coming down fast but I'm miles above you
Tell me tell me tell me come on tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer.

Helter skelter helter skelter
Helter skelter.

Will you, won't you want me to make you
I'm coming down fast but don't let me break you
Tell me tell me tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer.

Look out helter skelter helter skelter
Helter skelter

Look out, cause here she comes.

When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide
And I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
And I get to the bottom and I see you again

Well do you, don't you want me to make you
I'm coming down fast but don't let me break you
Tell me tell me tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer.

Look out helter skelter helter skelter
Helter skelter

Look out helter skelter
She's coming down fast

Yes she is Yes she is.
