Monster Mash Lyrics

[00:15.64] I was working in the lab, late one night
[00:18.67] When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
[00:22.27] For my monster from his slab, began to rise
[00:25.62] And suddenly to my surprise
[00:29.29] He did the mash, he did the monster mash
[00:31.04] The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash
[00:35.93] He did the mash, it caught on in a flash
[00:39.48] He did the mash, he did the monster mash
[00:42.63] From my laboratory in the castle east
[00:45.94] To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
[00:49.54] The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
[00:52.84] To get a jolt from my electrodes
[00:56.60] They did the mash, they did the monster mash
[00:59.69] The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash
[01:03.60] They did the mash, it caught on in a flash
[01:06.56] They did the mash, they did the monster mash
[01:10.16] The zombies were having fun, the party had just begun
[01:17.03] The guests included Wolfman, Dracula, and his son
[01:21.14] The scene...
[03:11.14]
