The new, edgier version by Bigga P and Professor J features lyrics with playful yet reverent references to Michael Jackson's Thriller and the original Monster Mash artist Bobby (Boris) Pickett – peculiarly connected by their famous, ubiquitous Halloween songs.
According to Producer Bigga P, "Requests for the new lyrics, set to an eerie atmosphere with a modernized rhythmic beat, have been pouring in because yesterday 'Monster Mash song' was the 49th most popular Google search term."
I was mixing in my crypt late last night |
|
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight |
|
For my Monster from his slab began to rise |
|
Then suddenly to my surprise |
|
He did the Mash |
|
It's just a grave yard smash |
|
From the clubs on sunset to the joints in the east |
|
To the Castles of old where the fanged ones feast |
|
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes |
|
To get a jolt from my electrodes |
|
They did the Mash, it's just da monsta monsta mash |
|
They did the Mash, it's just a grave yard smash |
|
The scene--was rocking all were digging the sounds |
|
Bigga P on the faders backed by his baying hounds |
|
The living dead were about to get some |
|
We lost MJ but his thrilla-ain't gone. |
|
Now do the Mash, it's just da monsta monsta mash |
|
Now do the Mash, it's just a grave yard smash |
|
From Boris' coffin his voice did ring, |
|
Seems he was troubled by just one thing |
|
When he opened the lid he shook his rump |
|
So now he gets down to my hip hop bump |
|
It's now the Mash, we do the monsta monsta mash |
|
Now do the Mash, it's just a grave yard smash |
|
Now everything's cool, Bore's a part of the crew |
|
And The Monster Mash will once again move you |
|
For You the Living this Mash was meant too |
|
When you get to my door tell 'em funk brought you |
|
It's now the mash … |
|
…it's just a grave yard smash |
