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 surpriseHe did the monster mash
It was a graveyard smashIt caught on in a flash
He did the monster mashFrom 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 electrodesThey did the monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
It caught on in a flash
They did the monster mashThe zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolfman,
Dracula, and his sonThe 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 monster mash
It was a graveyard smashIt caught on in a flash
They played the monster mashOut 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?"
It's now the monster mash
And it's a graveyard smashIt's caught on in a flash
It's now the monster mashNow 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 youThen you can monster mash
And do my graveyard smashYou'll catch on in a flash
Then you can monster mash
