"Papa Did the Monster Mash" Burlesque (Hitchcock Psycho Version)

NEW! Music video for vonHummer's "Papa Did the Monster Mash," the unspeakable first single from his "Black & Orange" 2010 Halloween concept album. Taped at the Mount Tabor reservoir, and sprinkled with clips from the recent "Glitter and Gore" burlesque show—in this special edition, Charlotte Treuse's classic revisiting of Janet Leigh in Hitchcock's "Psycho"—this song mashes together, monstrously, the lyrics of Bobby "Boris" Pickett's "Monster Mash," with "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" by the Temptations.
MP3 is available at vonhummer.com.
Lyrics:
I was working in the lab/On the third of September/ When my eyes beheld an eerie sight/I'll always remember/

The day my daddy died/and from his slab began to rise/
I never heard nothin' but bad things about him/and suddenly to my surprise...

Papa papa papa did the Monster Mash/Wherever he hung his hat was a graveyard smash/Papa papa did the Monster Mash/and when he died in a flash/all he left us was the Monster Mash.../

Hey mama was it true/Daddy never worked a day/In his laboratory in the Castle East/And Mama, some bad talk goin' round bout Papa and the vampire's feast/

Folks say Papa never was much on baying hounds/Diggin' the sounds of ghouls from their humble abodes/Spent all of his time chasin' women to get a jolt from their electrodes...

Papa papa papa did the Monster Mash/Wherever he hung his hat was a graveyard smash/Papa papa did the Monster Mash/and when he died in a flash/all he left us was the Monster Mash.../

The zombies were having fun/Tell me is that what
Sent Papa to an early grave?/Folks say Papa would beg, borrow and steal/to pay Wolfman, Dracula and his son/

Papa papa papa did the Monster Mash/Wherever he hung his hat was a graveyard smash/Papa papa did the Monster Mash/and when he died in a flash/all he left us was the Monster Mash.../
