lyric

VERSE:
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--

CHORUS [he did...]:
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

VERSE:
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

CHORUS [they did...]

BRIDGE:
The zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolf-Man,
Dracula, and his son

VERSE:
The scene was rocking, all were digging the sounds
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, The Crypt-Kicker Five

CHORUS [They played...]

VERSE:
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?"

CHORUS [it's now...]

VERSE:
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

CHORUS [Then you can...]


(Igor:) Mash good!
(Scientist:) Easy, Igor, you impetuous, young boy
(Igor:) Mash good! (Monster Mash)
