For the uninitiated, Bobby memorialized these words:
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
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
They just don’t write them like that anymore.
Oh no, we have ‘great’ lyrics like this…
This is why I’m Hot [2x]
This is why [2x] Uh
This is why I’m Hot (Uh)
This is why I’m Hot [2x] Whoo
This is why [2x]
This is why I’m Hot
I’m hot cause I’m fly (fly)
You ain’t cause you’re not (Mims)
This is why [2x]
This is why I’m hot [2x]
