Since we're on the verge of Halloween, I figured: Who doesn't love THIS song??

Monster Mash
by Monster Mash

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 catch 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
Eegore 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
And it was a graveyard smash
They played the mash
Its 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
It's now 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

I LOVE this song!

 

[Drtooth]

My mother went to the same school as the person who wrote this ...

I don't know if she knew him or what...


But this is my favorite song. Not just for holidays, one of my favorites...

 

[Krazedmuppet]

Drtooth, just out of curiosity, what the heck is your icon?! I mean its cool and all, but what is it? maybe im just not looking at it right...... maybe it I turned my head to the left a little....

Its the Boogie Man from Night Before Christmas character. He's pretty funny in the movie. Here's two of my favorite songs for Halloween.


OOGIE BOOGIE'S SONG


OOGIE BOOGIE
Well, well, well, what have we here?
Sandy Claws, huh?
Oh, I'm really scared
So you're the one everybody's talkin' about, ha, ha

You're jokin', you're jokin'
I can't believe my eyes
You're jokin me, you gotta be
This can't be the right guy
He's ancient, he's ugly
I don't knoe which is worse
I might just split a seam now
If I don't die laughing first

When Mr. Oogie Boogie says
There's trouble close at hand
You'd better pay attention now
'Cause I'm the Boogie Man
And if you aren't shakin'
Then something's very wrong
'Cause this may be the last time now
That you hear the boogie song, ohhh

THREE BATS
Ohhh

OOGIE BOOGIE
Ohhh

SEVEN LIZARDS
Ohhh

OOGIE BOOGIE
Ohhh

SEVEN LIZARDS
Ohhh, he's the Oogie Boogie Man

OOGIE BOOGIE
Well if I'm feelin' antsy
And there's nothin' much to do
I might just cook a special batch
Of snake and spider stew
And don't ya know one thing
That would make it work so nice?
A roly-poly Sandy Claws to add a little spice

THREE SKELTONS
Ohhh

OOGIE BOOGIE
Oh, yeah

THREE BATS
Ohhh

OOGIE BOOGIE
Ohhh

THREE BATS
Ohhh

OOGIE BOOGIE & THREE SKELETONS
Oh, yeah, I'm/he's the Oogie Boogie Man

SANTA
Release me now
Or you must face the dire consequences
The children are expexting me
So please come, to your senses

OOGIE BOOGIE
You're jokin', you're jokin'
I can't believe my ears
Would someone shut this fella up
I'm drownin' in my tears
It's funny, I'm laughing
You really are too much
And now, with your permission
I'm going to do my stuff

SANTA
What are you going to do?

OOGIE BOOGIE
I'm gonna do the best I can

Oh, the sound of rollin' dice
To me is music in the aor
'Cause I'm a gamblin' Boogie Man
Although I don't play fair

It's much more fun, I must confess
When lives are on the line
Not mine, of course, but yours, old boy
Now that'd be just fine

SANTA
Release me fast or you will have to
Answer for this heinous act

OOGIE BOOGIE
Oh, brother, you're something
You put me in a spin
You aren't comprehending
The position
That you're in
It's hopeless, you're finished
You haven't got a prayer
'Cause I'm Mr. Oogie Boogie
And you ain't going nowhere



Ghostbusters (1984)


Ghostbusters…
If there's somethin' strange in your neighborhood
Who ya gonna call (ghostbusters)
If it's somethin' weird an it won't look good
Who ya gonna call (ghostbusters)

I ain't afraid a no ghost
I ain't afraid a no ghost
If you're seein' things runnin' thru your head
Who can you call (ghostbusters)
An' invisible man sleepin' in your bed
Oh who ya gonna call (ghostbusters)
I ain't afraid a no ghost
I ain't afraid a no ghost
Who ya gonna call (ghostbusters)
If you're all alone pick up the phone
An call (ghostbusters)

I ain't afraid a no ghost
I hear it likes the girls
I ain't afraid a no ghost
Who you gonna call (ghostbusters)
Mm…if you've had a dose
Of a freaky ghost baby
You better call ghostbusters
Bustin' makes me feel good
I ain't afraid a no ghosts

Don't get caught alone oh no…ghostbuster
When he comes through your door
Unless you've just got some more
I think you better call ghostbusters
Ooh... who you gonna call (ghostbusters)
Who you gonna call (ghostbusters)
Ah, I think you better call (ghostbusters)

I can't hear you…(ghostbusters)
Who you gonna call (ghostbusters)
Louder ghostbusters
Who you gonna call (ghostbusters)
Who you can call ghostbusters…(till fade)

 

[Don'tLiveonMoon]

Cool, thanks, Erine. I was wondering that as well.

[Krazedmuppet]

Ah... I see it now, I have only seen parts of that movie, and it was along time ago at a halloween party (as a kid I was never allowed to watch it, and havent had the chance to since) but I see it now, I faintly remember. wasnt he like a bag or something?

You all know I have a Ghostbusters uniform, but we were discussing doing a Christmas Theme at our haunt, which is normally called Nightmarez!, and we were going to call the Xmas themed deal: Nightmarez! B4 Christmas.

We were going to have people go through the Christmas Carol and deal with the spirits of past, present, and future, including Marley. Then, they'd go through a Jack Skellington Halloweentown deal, and we were going to build Jack, Sally, and Oogie Boogie. Time and money constraints are the problems here.
