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   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      He did the mash, he did 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      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"      He did the mash, he did the monster mash   The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash   They played the mash, it caught on in a flash   He played the mash, he 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 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 the mash, it's caught on in a flash   It's the mash, it is 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 Model A sent you      Then you can mash, then you can monster mash   The monster mash, and do a graveyard smash   Then you can mash, you'll catch on in a flash   Then you can mash, then you can monster mash
