Monster Mash
Monstrous Revelry: Unveiling the Graveyard Smash
Lyrics
I was working in the lab late one night
A scientist was working in a laboratory late at night.
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
Witnessed a strange, spooky sight with his own eyes.
For my monster from his slab began to rise
His creation, a monster, started to rise from its table.
And suddenly to my surprise
Surprised by this sudden occurrence.
They did the mash
A dance called "The Monster Mash" began, involving the monster rising and dancing. It became popular quickly.
He 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
-He did the monster mash
-From my laboratory in the castle east
The scene shifts to the laboratory and its surroundings where various spooky creatures gather to join the dance.
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
-The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
-To get a jolt from my electrodes
-They did the mash
-He 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
-He did the monster mash
-The zombies were having fun
More guests arrive, including zombies, Wolf Man, Dracula, and others, all enjoying the music and dancing.
The party had just begun
-The guests included Wolf Man
-Dracula and his son, ah, ah, ah, ah
-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
-They did the mash
The description of the popular dance continues with emphasis on its quick spread and infectious nature among the creatures.
He 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
-He did the monster mash
-Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring
Dracula, one of the guests, is bothered by the disappearance of a dance called "Transylvania twist."
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
-He opened the lid and shook his fist
-And said, "whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?"
-They did the mash
Continuation of the catchy dance routine, spreading further and becoming a sensation.
He 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
-He did the monster mash
-Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band
Dracula becomes involved in the music, and the "Monster Mash" becomes a huge hit among the living as well, with an invitation to join from "Boris."
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
-They did the mash
Reiteration of the dance's popularity and its impact on the land, inviting everyone to join the fun.
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
-They did the mash
Ending with repetitions of the dance and expressions of enjoyment from various characters involved in the song.
The monster mash
-They did the mash (ooh hoo ha ha, the monster mash)
-The did the mash (ha ha ha, oh yes, I really like this)
-They did the mash (watch me go Igor)
-The monster mash (ha ha, that's it, play it again)
-They did the mash (yes, let me see your body wobble)
-They did the mash (ha ha ha)
