Monster Mash (with lyrics) ::: Bad Manners - Halloween 2

Monster Mash sung by Bad Manners was recorded in 1980
I did this for Halloween using animated gifs some are hilarious.
Bad Manners are an English 2 Tone Ska revival band like Madness and the Specials. Fronted by Buster Bloodvessel - Douglas Trendle the band was formed in 1976 while the members were together at Woodberry Down Comprehensive School , North London. They were at their most popular during the late 1970s and early 1980s.. Bad Manners spent 111 weeks in the British singles charts between 1980 and 1983.
After becoming popular in London, Bad Manners signed to Magnet Records in 1980 for a six figure sum, and then became more well known. Some of Bad Manners' more notable hits include My Girl Lollipop Lip Up Fatty Ne Ne Na Na Na Na Nu Nu, Lorraine, Just A Feeling, Can Can and Special Brew. One of the main reasons for their notoriety was their outlandish huge-tongued, rather tubby and shaven-headed frontman, Buster Bloodvessel. He used to go manic His exploits got them banned from the UK BBC TV chart show Top of the Pops the band was also banned from Italian TV after Bloodvessel mooned a concert audience, after being told that the Pope was watching on TV.
Originally recorded by Bobby - Boris - Pickett and The Crypt-Kickers

Bad Manners version

(creaking door slams)
(inane laughter)
(loads of nah-nah-nahs)
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

It did the mash
It did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
It was a smash
It caught on in a flash
The monster mash
He did the monster mash

In the hall of Gor in the castle east
In the master bedroom where the vampires feast
The ghoulies 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
It was a smash
It caught on in a flash
The monster 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

(sax interlude)

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 did the mash
They did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
It was a smash
It caught on in a flash
The monster mash
They played the monster mash

(more sax and nutty laughter)

Igor Igor you want your brains yeh?
(indistinct) (horrid laughter)
(someone coffin up lol)
Sax plays nah nah nah nah nah
(voice says) We werent taping were we?
BAD MANNERS SONG FINISHES HERE

(rest of original lyrics)

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

@goonchistaw ta for making it 25,743 lol

[Cyallaire]

Wow, Rikkyhardo, almost 30,000 views. Before Halloween is over, you may well hit that mark. Where all the plush costume animals are dancing in front of palm trees, that looks a lot like the Arboretum in Arcadia, California. The lagoon there is where the silly "Fantasy Island" series was filmed.
