Boogie oogie oogie man
flashing, grinning,
dancing man
bearing teeth
gnashing, gnashing, gnawing meat
SPOOK-y man
with your grin that holds ten thousand teeth
and your chin from which
red blood drips sticky and sweet
BOO!
Boogie oogie oogie,
Mr. Boogie man
Dance with limbs that
twist and bend
and snap and crack
and thwip and thwack
Snap--
your fingers, Mr. Boogie man!
And slap your thighs
And clap your hands
Won't you join me in this dance?
And won't you stroke my face?
And kiss my cheek?
And bite my neck?
And drink my red blood so sweet?
And won't you,
with your ten thousand teeth,
devour my heart
as you feast, feast feast...
Oh, Mr. Boogie oogie oogie man
Let us dance the night away!
Your broken fingers can hold my back
as my snapping bones
go thwack, thwack, thwack
And I'll wipe the blood from my eyes
And I'll wipe the tears from my heart
And we'll boogie oogie oogie
Til death lets me part
