Hodja by Todd Rundgren Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hodja, please show me how to spin now, Hodja
(Please show me how you do it)
All the other boys are laughing at me again now, Hodja
(Please show me how you do it)
Whenever I talk, they don't hear a thing
And everyone laughs when I sing
[Chorus]
Hodja, please show me how to spin
I want to do that dance 'til I forget where I am
So get up out of your bed one more time
Hodja, make me spin
[Verse 2]
Yeah, teach me to spin like I seen you do
(Please show me how you do it)
Why don't you make me the envy of the kids in school
(Please show me how you do it)
I know what to wear, I know how to sound
I know about kissing the ground
[Chorus]
Hodja, please show me how to spin
I want to do that dance 'til I forget where I am
Get up out of your bed one more time
Hodja, make me spin
[Bridge]
From every alley in Konya
Mevlana sings, "Turn around, turn around
You've got to spin 'til your feet leave the ground"
[Verse 3]
Hodja, someday soon you will be moving on
(Hodja, please, won't you show me how you do it?)
So won't you let me be the one you lay the secret on?
(Hodja, won't you let me in on how you do it?)
And it's a 2 4 6 8, take it from the top
You've got to start me up and don't let me stop
[Chorus]
Hodja, please show me how to spin
I want to do that dance 'til I forget where I am
Get up out of your bed one more time
Hodja, make me spin
Hodja, please show me how to spin
I want to do that dance 'til I forget where I am
So get up out of your bed one more time
Hodja, make me spin
Hodja, please show me how to spin
I want to do that dance 'til I forget where I am
So get up out of your bed one more time
Hodja, make me spin
Hodja, please show me how to spin
I want to do that dance 'til I forget where I am
So get up out of your bed one more time
Hodja, make me spin
Hodja, please show me how to spin
I want to do that dance 'til I forget where I am
So get up out of your bed one more time
Hodja, make me spin
Hodja, please show me how to spin
I want to do that dance 'til I forget where I am
So get up out of your bed one more time
Hodja, make me spin
Hodja, please show me how to spin
I want to do that dance 'til I forget where I am
So get up out of your bed one more time
Hodja, make me spin

Hodja, please show me how to spin now, Hodja
