Aerosmith - Helter Skelter Lyrics
Lyrics Translation
The lyrics depict chaotic energy and excitement, inspired by a carnival slide called the Helter Skelter, but metaphorically explore themes of intensity, passion, and unrestrained emotion. Aerosmith's cover adds a harder, grittier edge to the original, showcasing their blues-infused rock style and high-energy performance.
Song lyrics
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
'Til I get to the bottom
And I see you again...yeah yeah yeah yeah
Do you, don't you
Want me to love you
I'm comin' down fast
But I'm miles above you
A tell me, tell me, tell me the answer
You may be a lover
But you ain't no dancer...yeah
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter...ooh
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...that's right
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Woo...helter skelter...yeah...lookout
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
Yeah yeah yeah
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
May be a lover
But you ain't no dancer
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Wee...yeah yeah yeah yeah
Helter skelter
I'm coming down fast
Yeah yeah yeah
