Oogie Boogie
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, well, well, what have we here?
Santa Claus, huh?
Oh, I'm really scared
So, you're the one everybody's talkin' about, ha, ha
You're jokin', you're jokin'
I can't believe my eyes
You're jokin' me, you gotta be
This can't be the right guy
He's ancient, he's ugly
I don't know which is worse
I might just split a seam now
If I don't die laughing first
Mr. Oogie Boogie says
There's trouble close at hand
You'd better pay attention now
'Cause I'm the Boogie Man
And if you aren't shakin'
There's something very wrong
'Cause this may be the last time
You hear the boogie song, ohhh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh, I'm the Oogie Boogie Man
Well, if I'm feelin' antsy
And there's nothin' much to do
I might just cook a special batch
Of snake and spider stew
And don't ya know the one thing
That would make it work so nice?
A roly-poly Santa Claus to add a little spice
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Yeah, I'm (he's) the Oogie Boogie Man
Release me now
Or you must face the dire consequences
The children are expecting me
So please, come to your senses
You're jokin', you're jokin'
I can't believe my ears
Would someone shut this fella up
I'm drownin' in my tears
It's funny, I'm laughing
You really are too much
And now, with your permission
I'm going to do my stuff
What are you going to do?
I'm gonna do the best I can
Hit it!
Oh, the sound of rollin' dice
To me is music in the air (music in the air)
'Cause I'm a gamblin' Boogie Man
Although I don't play fair
It's much more fun, I must confess
When lives are on the line
Not mine, of course, but yours, old boy
Now that'd be just fine
Release me fast or you will have to
Answer for this heinous act
Oh, brother, you're something
You put me in a spin
You aren't comprehending
The position that you're in
It's hopeless, you're finished
You haven't got a prayer
'Cause I'm Mr. Oogie Boogie
And you ain't going nowhere
Ooh, ooh
He is Mr. Oogie
I'm the Oogie Boogie man (Oogie Boogie man)
The Oogie Boogie man
The Oogie Boogie man (Oogie Boogie man)
Booh
