Monster Mash
The Misfits version
of the 1962 Monster Mash by Bobby “Boris” Pickett
I was working in the lab,
Late one night,
When my eyes beheld and eerie sight,
For my monster in his lab 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,
(wa-oo) From my laboratory
in the castle East,
(wa-oo) To the master bedroom where the vampires feast,
(wa, wa-oo) To ghouls all came from their humble abodes,
(wa-oo) 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,
(wa-ooo) The zombies were
having fun,
(anashoop wa-oo) The party had just begun,
(anashoop wa-oo) The guests included wolfman,
(anashoop wa-oo) Dracula and his son
(wa-ooo) The scene was
rocking, oh we're digging the sounds,
(wa-oo) Eagor on chains backed by asbaying hounds,
(wa-oo) The coffin bangers were about to arrive,
(wa-oo) With their vocal group, The Crypt Keeper 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
(wa-oo) Out from his coffin
Drac's voice did ring,
(wa-oo) seems he was troubled by just one thing,
(wa, wa-oo) Open the lid, and shook his fist and said
(wa-oo) Whatever happened to my Transylvanian Twist?
(its now the mash) Its now
the monster mash,
(the monster mash) And its a graveyard smash,
(its now the mash) It's caught on in a flash,
(its now the mash) Its now the monster mash.
(wa-oo) Now everything's
cool, Drac's a part of the band,
(wa-oo) And my monster mash is the hit of the land,
(wa, wa-oo) For you the living, this mash was meant too,
(wa-oo) 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.
Swamp Witch Hattie
By Jim Stafford
Black Water Hattie lived
back in the swamp
where the strange green reptiles crawl.
Snakes hang thick in the cyprus trees
like sausage from a smokehouse wall.
Well the swamp is alive with a thousand eyes,
an all of them watchin' you
so stay off the track to Hattie's shack
in the back of the Black Bayou.
Way up the road from
Hattie's shack
lies a sleepy little Okeechobee town.
Talk of the Swamp Witch Hattie
an' they'll lock you in when the sun goes down.
Rumors of what she done,
rumors of what she'd do,
kept folks off the track to Hattie's shack
in the back of the Black Bayou
One day brought the rain,
and the rain stayed on
and the swamp water overflowed
'skeeters and the fever grabbed the town like fist
Doc Jackson was the first to go.
Some said the plague was brought by Hattie,
there was talk of a hangin', too
but the talk got shackled by the howls and the cackles
from the bowels of the Black Bayou.
Early one mornin' 'tween
dark and dawn
when shadows fill the sky,
there came an unseen caller
born in a town where hope run dry.
In the square there was found
a big black round
vat full of gurgling brew
whispering sounds as the folks gathered 'round
"It came from the Black Bayou".
Ain't much pride when
you're trapped inside
a slowly sinking ship
scooped up the liquid thick and green
and the whole town took a sip.
Fever went away and the very next day
the sky again was blue.
Lets thank ol' Hattie for saving our town,
we'll fetch her from the Black Bayou.
A party of ten of the
towns' best men
headed for Hattie's shack
said swamp woods magic was useful and good
and the're gonna bring Hattie back.
They never found Hattie, an they never found her shack,
an they never made a trip back in,
'cause a parchment note they found tacked to a stump
said don't come looking again.
Legend of Wooley Swamp
By Charlei Daniels
Well, if you ever go back
into Wooley Swamp,
Well, you better not go at night.
There's things out there in the middle of them woods
That make a strong man die from fright.
Things that crawl and things that fly
And things that creep around on the ground.
And they say the ghost of Lucius Clay gets up and he walks around.
[Chorus]
But I couldn't believe it.
I just had to find out for myself.
And I couldn't conceive it
'Cause I never would have listened to nobody else.
And I couldn't believe it.
I just had to find out for myself
There's somethings in this world you just
can't explain.
Spoken:
The old man lived in the Wooley Swamp way back in Booger Woods.
He never did do a lot of harm in the world,
But he never did do no good
People didn't think too much of him
They all thought he acted funny
The old man didn't care about people anyway
All he cared about was his money.
He'd stuff it all down in mason jars
And he'd bury it all around
And on certain nights
If the moon was right
H e'd dig it up out of the ground.
He'd pour it all out on the floor of his shack
And run his fingers through it.
Yeah, Lucius Clay was a greedy old man
And that's all that there was to it.
Cable boys was white trash
They lived over on Carver's Creek.
They were mean as a snake
And sneaky as a cat
And belligerent when they'd speak.
One night the oldest brother said,
"Y'all meet me at the Wooley Swamp later
We'll take old Lucius's money
and we'll feed him to the alligators."
They found the old man out in the back
With a shovel in his hand,
Thirteen rusty mason jars
was just dug up out of the sand.
And they all went crazy
And they beat the old man,
And they picked him up off of the ground.
Threw him in the swamp
And stood there and laughed
As the black water sucked him down.
Then they turned around
And went back to the shack
And picked up the money and ran.
They hadn't gone nowhere
When they realized
They were running in quicksand.
And they struggled and they screamed
But they couldn't get away
And just before they went under
They could hear that old man laughing
In a voice as loud as thunder.
And that's been fifty years ago
And you can go by there yet.
There's a spot in the yard
In the back of that shack
Where the ground is always wet.
And on summer nights
If the moon is right
Down by the that dark footpath,
You can hear three young men screaming.
You can hear one old man laugh.
[Chorus]
The Battle of Evermore
By Led Zeppelin
Queen of Light took her
bow, And then she turned to go,
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom, And walked the night alone.
Oh, dance in the dark of night, Sing to the morning light.
The dark Lord rides in force tonight, And time will tell us all.
Oh, throw down your plow and hoe, Rest not to lock your homes.
Side by side we wait the might of the darkest of them all.
I hear the horses' thunder down in the valley below,
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon, waiting for the eastern glow.
The apples of the valley hold, The seeds of happiness,
The ground is rich from tender care, Repay, do not forget, no, no.
Dance in the dark of night, sing to the morning light.
The apples turn to brown and black, The tyrant's face is red.
Oh war is the common cry, Pick up your swords and fly.
The sky is filled with good and bad that mortals never know.
Oh, well, the night is long, the beads of time pass slow,
Tired eyes on the sunrise, waiting for the eastern glow.
The pain of war cannot exceed the woe of aftermath,
The drums will shake the castle wall, the ringwraiths ride in black,
Ride on.
Sing as you raise your bow, shoot straighter than before.
No comfort has the fire at night that lights the face so cold.
Oh dance in the dark of night, Sing to the morning light.
The magic runes are writ in gold to bring the balance back. Bring it
back.
At last the sun is shining, The clouds of blue roll by,
With flames from the dragon of darkness, the sunlight blinds his eyes.
Ooh, Bring it back, Bring it back...

She Said, She Said
By The Black Keys
She said, I know
what it's like to be dead
I know what it is to be sad
and she’s makin' me feel like I've never been born
I said, who put all those things in your head
things that make me feel like I'm there
and you’re makin' me feel like I never was born
She said, you don’t understand what I said
I said no, no, no your wrong, when I was a boy....
everything was right
everything was right
I said, even though you know what you know
I know that I'm ready to leave
‘cause your makin' me feel like I never was born
she said, she said, she
said, she said, she said
Higher
by Creed
When dreaming I'm guided to
another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the
comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd
sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth
and my dreams the same
The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
So lets go there, lets go
there,
Come on, lets go there
Lets ask can we stay?
Up high I feel like I'm alive
for the very first time
Set up high I'm strong enough
to take these dreams
And make them mine
Set up high I'm strong enough
to take these dreams
And make them mine
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
Nature’s Way
By Spirit
It's nature's
way of telling you something's wrong
It's nature's way of telling you in a song
It's nature's way of receiving you
It's nature's way of retrieving you
It's nature's way of telling you something's wrong
It's nature's
way of telling you through no breeze
It's nature's way of telling you dying trees
It's nature's way of receiving you
It's nature's way of retrieving you
It's nature's way of telling you something's wrong
It's nature's way, It's nature's way
It's nature's way, It's nature's way
It's nature's
way of telling you something's wrong
It's nature's way of telling you in a song, (oh-oh-woah)
It's nature's way of receiving you (It's nature's way)
It's nature's way of retrieving you (It's nature's way)
It's nature's way of telling you something's wrong
Something's wrong
Something's wrong
Zombie
By The
Cranberries
Another head hangs lowly,
Child is slowly taken.
And the violence caused such silence,
Who are we mistaken?
But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...
In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, dou, dou, dou, dou, dou...
Another mother's breakin',
Heart is taking over.
When the violence causes silence,
We must be mistaken.
It's the same old theme since nineteen-sixteen.
In your head, in your head they're still fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are dying...
In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, oh, ya, ya-a...
