Monster Mash
Lyrics:
I was working in the lab late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my monster, from his slab began to rise
And suddenly, to my surprise
(He did the mash)
He did the monster mash
(The monster mash)
It was a graveyard smash
(He did the mash)
It caught on in a flash
(He did the mash)
He did the monster mash
From my laboratory in the castle east
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
The ghouls all came from their humble abode
To get a jolt from my electrode
The zombies were having fun,
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolf man,
Dracula and his son
The scene was rocking, all were digging the sound
Igor on chains backed by his baying hounds
The Coffin Baggers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, The Crypt kicker Five
(They played the mash)
They played the monster mash
(The monster the mash)
It was a graveyard smash
(They played the mash)
It caught on in a flash
(They played the mash)
They played the monster mash.
Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
Opened the lid and shook his fist, and said
"Whatever happened to my Transylvania Twist?"
(It's now the mash)
It's now the monster mash
(The monster mash)
And it's a graveyard smash
(It's now the mash)
It caught on in a flash
(It's now the mash)
It's now the monster mash
Now everything's cool,
Drac's a part of the band
And my monster mash is the hit of the land
For you, the living,
This mash was meant, too
When you get to my door
Tell them Boris sent you
(Then you can mash)
Then you can monster mash
(The monster mash)
And do my graveyards smash
(Then you can mash)
You'll catch on in a flash
(Then you can mash)
Then you can monster mash
Grrrr... Mash....
Easy Igor, you impetuous vampire
