The Monster Mash
|
(Bobby Pickett)
|
|
I was working in the lab late one night
|
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
|
For my monster from the slab began to rise
|
And suddenly to my surprise
|
|
Ch:
|
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 abodes
|
To get a jolt from my electrodes
|
|
Ch:
|
They did the mash
|
They did the monster mash
|
The monster mash
|
It was a graveyard smash
|
They did the mash
|
It caught on in a flash
|
They did the mash
|
They did the monster mash
|
|
The zombies were having fun
|
The party had just begun
|
The guests included wolfman
|
Dracula and his son
|
|
The scene was rocking all were digging sounds
|
Igor on chains backed by his baying hounds
|
The coffin bangers were about to arrive
|
With their vocal group the crypt kicker five
|
|
Ch:
|
They played the mash
|
They played the monster mash
|
The monster 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
|
He opened the lid and shook his fist and said
|
"Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?"
|
|
Ch:
|
It's now the mash
|
It's now the monster mash
|
The monster mash
|
And it's a graveyard smash
|
Now it's the mash
|
It's caught on in a flash
|
Now it's the mash
|
Now it's the monster mash
|
|
Now everything's cool Drac's a part of the band
|
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 Barney sent you
|
|
Ch:
|
And you can mash
|
Then you can monster mash
|
The monster mash
|
Cause it's a graveyard smash
|
Then you can mash
|
You'll catch on in a flash
|
Then you can mash
|
Then you can monster mash
|
|
