I know there's an Anthrax song by that name, but I'm looking for an old jazz tune that was recorded by Louis Armstrong and also by Artie Shaw. |

I don't think they've been posted at Mudcat before. I transcribed them from a recording on Spotify: THE SKELETON IN THE CLOSET As sung by Louis Armstrong SPOKEN: Boy, don't you go in there!--Come out o' there, boy!--Don't you know that house is ha'nted? SUNG: There's an old deserted mansion on an old forgotten road Where the better ghosts an' goblins always hang out. One night they threw a party in a manner à la mode, And they cordially invited all the gang out. At a dark bewitchin' hour when the fun was loud and hearty, A notorious wallflower became the life o' the party. Mm, the spooks were havin' their midnight fling. The merry-makin' was in full swing. They shrieked themselves into a cheerful trance When the skel'ton in the closet started to dance. Now a goblin giggled with fiendish glee. A shout rang out from a big banshee. Amazement was in ev'ry ghostly glance When the skel'ton in the closet started to dance. All the witches were in stitches while his steps made rhythmic thumps, And they nearly dropped their broomstick when he tried to do the bumps. You never heard such unearthly laughter, such hilarious groans, When the skeleton in the closet rattled his bones. |
