| 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
|
| If you’ve ever seen a monster before
|
| Dancin' across the dance floor
|
| Don’t be afraid, don’t run and shout
|
| Turn around and help the monster turn it out
|
| Get down with the monster mash
|
| Get down with the monster mash
|
| Get down with the monster mash
|
| Get down with the monster mash
|
| And if you don’t have core hard cash
|
| You can still do the monster mash
|
| 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 the 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, it was graveyard smash
|
| It’s now the mash, it 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 Borris 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
|
| The monster mash
|
| Get down with the monster mash
|
| Get down with the monster mash
|
| Get down with the monster mash
|
| Mash |
