Monster Mash

[@lunda2222]

This song was banned by the BBC in '62 for being "too morbid". The ban was lifted in '73.

[@georgeshelton6281]

The argument addressed to me is this; if you celebrate Halloween at a certain place like in Watsonville Ca. particularly, you'll have no chance of survival! The Lord God won't grant you even mental immunity. I've learned this lesson back then in September and October 1997. The superior way of celebrating Halloween is just by moving to Halloween music.

Kasper Pedersen I love it too. I remember being a kid so psyched for Halloween with my best friend and little brother in tow, on the best holiday. Better than Christmas! Back when we walked around the neighborhood on our own and no one worried. This song and "Spooky" by the Classics IV take me right back.

[@kasperpedersen1527]

Wow that sound so fun! I never did that sadly. You don't really do the trick and treat part of halloween in sweden. More eat unearthly candy and have parties. But yeah i always loved halloween to.

Lyrics 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 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 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 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 And it's 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
