The Thompson Twins were an English New Wave/pop band normally associated with the 1980s. The band formed in April of 1977, and disbanded in May of 1993. Despite their constantly-misleading name, the Twins were in fact a trio, and consisted of Tom Bailey (vocals), Alannah Currie (synth) and Joe Leeway (guitar). Leeway would eventually leave the group in the late 80s. Massively popular in the mid 1980s, the band scored a string of hits in the UK, broke into the USA and Canada and enjoyed huge popularity around the globe.

Rock This Boat Lyrics
Thompson Twins
Hush hush hush stop making a fuss
Someone might come and rescue us
And when they do they'll turn on all the lights
And find the nest of vipers that we keep out of sight
(chorus) I'm gonna rock this boat
I don't wanna float
Down the river with you
I'm gonna rock this boat
'Cos I really want to know
If our love is true
You're a little scared, I'm a little touched
Maybe I shouldn't go pushing my luck
But I saw the animal in your eyes
I wanted to go-go but my hands were tied
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Love love love is a dangerous drug
Makes me wonder what I'm thinking of
I'm gonna make you laugh, gonna make you cry
'Cos I don't care too much for paradise
(REPEAT CHORUS x 2
