Monster Mash Bobby "Boris" Pickett

I was [C] working in the lab late one night. When my [Am] eyes beheld an eerie sight

For my [F] monster from his slab began to rise. And [G7] suddenly, to my surprise

He did the [C] mash... He did the Monster Mash. The Monster [Am] Mash... It was a graveyard smash

He did the [F] mash... It caught on in a flash. He did the [G7] mash... He did the Monster Mash.

From my [C] laboratory in the Castle East. To the [Am] Master Bedroom where the vampires feast.

The [F] ghouls all came from their humble abode. To [G7] get a jolt from my electrode.

They did the [C] mash... They did the Monster Mash. The monster [Am] mash... It was a graveyard smash.

They did the [F] mash... It caught on in a flash. They did the [G7] mash... They did the monster mash.

The [F] Zombies were having fun... In-a-shoop-wha-ooo. The [G] party had just begun... In-a-shoop-wha-ooo.

The [F] guests included Wolfman... In-a-shoop-wha-ooo. [G] Dracula and his son.

The [C] scene was rocking all were digging the sound. [Am] Igor on chains backed by His Baying Hounds.

The [F] Coffin Bangers were about to arrive. With their [G7] vocal group, the Crypt Kicker Five.

They played the [C] mash... They played the Monster Mash. The monster [Am] mash... It was a graveyard smash.

They played the [F] mash... It caught on in a flash. They played the [G7] mash... They played the monster mash.

[C] Out from his coffin Drac's voice did ring. It [Am] seems he was worried 'bout just one thing.

[F] Opened the lid and shook his fist, and said. [G7] "Whatever happened to my Transylvania Twist?"

It's now the [C] mash... It's now the Monster Mash. The monster [Am] mash... And it's a graveyard smash.

It's now the [F] mash... It's caught on in a flash. It's now the [G7] mash... It's now the Monster Mash.

Now [C] everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band. And my [Am] Monster Mash, is the hit of the land.

For [F] you, the living, this Mash was meant too. When you [G7] get to my door, tell them Boris sent you.

Then you can [C] Mash... Then you can Monster Mash. The monster [Am] mash... And do my graveyard smash.

Then you can [F] Mash... You'll catch on in a flash. Then you can [G7] Mash... Then you can Monster Mash. [C]

Runaway

[Am] As I walk along, I [G] wonder what went wrong, With [F] our love, a love that was so [E7] strong. [Am] And as I still walk on, I [G] think of the things we've done [F] Together, while our hearts were [E7] young.

{Chorus} [A] I'm a-walkin' in the rain, [F#m] Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain, [A] Wishin' you were here by me, [F#m] To end this misery

And I [A] wonder - I wah-wah-wah-wah [F#m] wonder, [A] Why - why, why, why, why, [F#m] why she ran away, And I [D] wonder, A-where she will [E7] stay-ay, My little [A] runaway, [D] run, run, run, run, [A] runaway [E7]

Purple People Eater Sheb Wooley 1958

[D] Well, I saw the thing comin' out of the sky. It had the [A7] one long horn, [D] one big eye. I commenced to shakin' and I [G] said, "Ooh-Wee" It [A7] looks like a purple people eater to me.

[D] Well, he came down to earth and he lit in a tree. I said, [A7] "Mr. Purple People Eater, [D] don't eat me! I heard him say in a [G] voice so gruff, "I [A7] wouldn't eat you cuz you're so tough."

[D] And then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground. He [A7] started to rock, really [D] rockin' around. It was a crazy ditty with a [G] swingin' tune. Singin', [A7] "Bop-bop-a-loo-oop-a-lop-bam- [D] boom!"

“ N a s t y D a n ” Recorded by Johnny Cash. Written by Jerry Moss

Sung to Oscar the Grouch on Sesame Street.

[C] Old Nasty Dan was the meanest man, I [F] ever knew.

He'd [G7] stomp and scream and be real mean the [C] whole day through. He'd frown a bunch. He ate nails for lunch, and he'd [F] never laugh.

He'd [G7] growl and yell, and I heard tell, he never took a [C] bath

Nasty [F] Dan, was a nasty [C] man, hard to under[G7]stand, that Nasty [C] Dan.

Now Nasty Dan was a nasty man the [F] whole day long He'd [G7] go where he could, and he'd try real good, to [C] make things go wrong.

He'd jump for joy, when a little boy, would [F] trip and fall. And the [G7] only words, he ever said, were “I don't like you at [C] all”

Nasty [F] Dan, was a nasty [C] man,

hard to under[G7]stand, that Nasty [C] Dan Spoken:

Now here’s the best part. It’s about a girl, named Nasty Pearl.

[C] Nasty Pearl was a nasty girl who met [F] Dan somehow.

She said [G7] “you’re like me, rotten as can be, let's get [C] married now.” So they went and they did and had a nasty kid, and I [F] must confess, that [G7]

Spoken:

Dan pretty much leaves everybody alone now. And he doesn't bother anybody anymore, cause he just lives in his nasty old house with his

nasty old wife and his nasty kid.

In [G7] nasty happi[C]ness!

Nasty [F] Dan, he's a happy [C] man, hard to under[G7]stand, that Nasty [C] Dan. Page 15

Did the devil make the world while God was [Gm] sleeping [A7] You'll never get a wish from a [Dm] bone Another wrong goodbye and a hundred [Gm] sailors That [A7] deep blue sky is my [Dm] home

She left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall She always had that little drop of [Gm] poison [A7] [Dm]

[Dm] A rat always knows when he's in with [Gm] weasels Here you [A7] lose a little every day [Dm] Well I remember when a million was a [Gm] million They [A7] all have ways to make you [Dm] pay
