Ah, where’s Vincent Price when yuh needs him, eh? Move Over "Mr. Goodbar..."
I was working on the “Confuzer” late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
From my monitor a scary picture began to show
And suddenly to my surprise
The image on my screen began to sing
He did the mash
He did the RASSCAR mash
The RASSCAR mash
It was a graveyard smash
He did the mash
It caught on in a flash
He did the mash
He did the RASSCAR mash
From my humble apartment’s abode
To the room’s cathode ray glow
And amongst the Nabors dwellings
Where the vampires feast
The ghouls all came out from their alcoves
Chanting “Jimmy! Jimmy! Jimmy!”
Hoping to snatch a peak
Of some Roundy-round racin’
Flickering on my TV
(Thru the patio’s window)
They did the mash
They did the RASSCAR mash
The RASSCAR mash
It was a graveyard smash
They did the mash
It caught on in a flash
They did the mash
They did the RASSCAR mash
The “Junior Nation” zombies were having some fun
Hoping “Little E’s” resurgence would soon begin
The guests included Kenny Wallace
Larry MacReynolds, Mr. Goodbar
And the rest of the SPEED TV “Freak Nation” crew
And the building was rockin'
Everyone having to put up with the blare of the next door neighbor’s surround sound TV wailing a pitiful noise
That sounded like Rusty Wallace scratchin’ a chalkboard
While a pair ‘O Beagle’s howled in misery
As Dusk turned to Night
And the little Coffin-Bangers were soon to arrive With their candy bags and dressed up
As "The Crypt-Kicker Five"
And the TV kept playin’
the mash The RASSCAR mash
The RASSCAR mash
It was a graveyard smash
As the TV blared the mash
It caught on in a flash
As it played the mash
It continued to play the RASSCAR mash
Out from my room,
my voice crackled loudly
As once again I was disgusted
Yelling loudly and shaking my fistsI screamed
How long do we have to listen to this?
As the drone of ‘lil Trick ‘N Treaters knocked on the door
As the next door TV still blared the mash
Except It's now more commonly known
As the RASSCAR mash
The RASSCAR mash
But its almost over
That Monster Y’all know
As the Chase...
