I was working in the lab late one night

When my eyes beheld an eerie sight

For my monster from the slab began to rise

And suddenly to my surprise



(He 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 Wolfman

Dracula and his son



The scene was rocking and 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 Cryptkickers Five



(They played the mash) They did my monster mash

(The monster mash) Arrgh, it was a graveyard smash

(They played the mash) It caught on in a flash

(They played the mash) They did 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 he 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) Arrgh, it's a graveyard smash

(It's now the mash) Mmm, you'll catch on in a flash

(It's now the mash) They did my monster mash



Now everything's cool, Drac's part of the band

And my monster mash is the hit of the land

For you, the living, the mash was meant too

When you get to my door tell them Boris sent you



(Then you can mash) To do the monster mash

(The monster mash) Arrgh, it's a graveyard smash

(Then you can mash) Ah, you'll catch on in a flash

(Then you can mash) Arrgh, do my monster mash

Arrgh, that's, arrgh, good, easy you all

Impetuous young boy
