Bobby Pickett And The Crypt-kickers Monster Mash Lyrics

Monster Mash Lyrics

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 

 

 

 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
