From Lyrics World

There was another one there called "Monster Holiday"

MONSTER MASH
Bobby "Boris" Pickett and the Crypt-Kickers
Written by Bobby Pickett and Lenny Capizzi

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 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

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 Wolf Man
Dracula and his son

The scene was rockin', 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 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?"

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's 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 graveyard smash
Then you can mash
You'll catch on in a flash
Then you can mash
Then you can monster mash

'Spaw, can't help it. It's one of my all-time favourite songs! Lotta fawking line breaks to type in, though!

Alison and Gene, great links! I've already sent the dancing monsters to family and friends!

Surely this should class as a song that is so bad that it's good!

If all started using available resources...
a lot of typing/duplicating - could be avoided...

Gene, your point is? That is the same link I put in in the first place. I just thought copying and pasting was a sort of courteous thing to do.

Sorry, Gene, I usually copy and paste the URL, too, but left it to my foolish brain to write it out then type it in. Just noticed my link was incorrect.

Still, I did copy & paste the lyrics and I think a lot of people don't want to exit to another site. It's fun to have the lyrics in the thread for quick reference.

the point is I was thinking about ANOTHER thead
where someone said they laboriously typed out the
lyrics - which, if they had kept up with the various
LINKS they could-a saved the typing and did exactly
as you did - copy and post to MUDCAT...

Thanks to all for the lyrics. I'm playing at a center for people with head injuries this weekend and need something appropriate for the season.
