Admit it! You had to watch it more than once!

Either because you enjoyed it so much… or you couldn’t believe what you were seeing!

Just for the sake of completeness, clips appeared to be taken from (in this order):

“Wreck of the Robot”
“The Dream Monster”
“The Deadly Games of Gamma Six”
“Space Circus” – all 1966.

I’d guess that lone clip of the Jupiter II in flight (daylight sky) was from “Visit to a Hostile Planet” (1967).

“For the Sake of Completeness” – Part Two: Here are the song lyrics!

Shake, shake, shake, senora, shake your body line
Shake, shake, shake, senora, shake it all the time
Work, work, work, senora, work your body line
Work, work, work, senora, work it all the time

My girl's name is Senora
I tell you friends, I adore her
And when she dances, oh brother
She's a hurricane in all kinds of weather

(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Whoa

Shake, shake, shake, senora, shake your body line
Shake, shake, shake, senora, shake it all the time
Work, work, work, senora, work your body line
Work, work, work, senora, work it all the time

You can talk about cha cha
Tango, waltz, or the rumba
Senora's dance has no title
You jump in the saddle
Hold on to the bridle

(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Rock your body, child!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Somebody help me!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Whoa

Shake, shake, shake, senora, shake your body line
Shake, shake, shake, senora, shake it all the time
Work, work, work, senora, work your body line
Work, work, work, senora, work it all the time

Senora, she's a sensation
The reason for aviation
And fellas, you got to watch it
When she wind up she bottom she go like a rocket

(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Hoist those guns a little higher!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Jumpin' jiminy
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Whoa oh oh oh

Shake, shake, shake, senora
Shake your body line
Work, work, work, senora
Work it all the time

Dance, dance, dance, senora
Dance it all the time
Work, work, work, senora
Work it all the time

Senora dances calypso
Left to right is the tempo
And when she gets the sensation
She go up in the air
Come down in slow motion

(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Somebody, help me!
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) OK, I believe you
(Jump in the line, rock your body in time) Whoa

Shake, shake, shake, senora, shake your body line
Shake, shake, shake, senora, shake it all the time
Shake, shake, shake, senora!!
