Good ol’ monster

I was working in the lab, late one night
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

From my laboratory in the castle east
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
To get a jolt from my electrodes

They did the mash, they did the monster mash
The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash
They did the mash, it caught on in a flash
They did the mash, they did the monster mash

The zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolfman
Dracula, and his son

The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, 'The Crypt-Kicker Five'

They played the mash, they played the monster mash
The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash
They played the mash, it caught on in a flash
They played the mash, they played the monster mash

Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
Opened the lid and shook his fist and said
"Whatever happened to my Transylvania Twist?"

It's now the mash, it's now the monster mash
The monster mash, and it's a graveyard smash
It's now the mash, it caught on in a flash
It's now the mash, it's now the monster mash

Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band
And my Monster Mash is the hit of the land
For you, the living, this mash was meant too
When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you

Then you can mash, then you can monster mash
The monster mash, and do my graveyard smash
Then you can mash, you will catch on in a flash
Then you can mash, then you can monster mash

Wah-ooh, argh, monster mash, wah-ooh
Easy, Igor, you impetuous young boy
Argh, mash good, mm, argh
Monster mash, wah-ooh, monster mash, wah-ooh

Fun discussions about interesting topics!

I discovered this podcast while searching for monster related podcasts to listen to and found the host on another podcast, Kaiju Weekly. I've found the format really interesting. It's not a film review show like so many others, but an open discussion between freinds about monster-related topics. It's a unique spin on an old idea and deserves to be heard. I hope they start publishing more episodes soon!

Take care,
Becca

The Daikaiju Groupie Podcast

Have you ever wondered what makes a fan of giant monsters tick? Want to learn how rubber suited, stop motion, badly done cgi monsters inspire and influence those who consume this medium? Tuck into this unique podcast that Michael does where you get to listen to the community and hear the voices of the wild and sometimes out of this world members that make up the fandom of Daikaiju Groupies.

Also a fun fact: Kaiju is Japanese for “Strange beast” so things like Clifford, The Predator, Xenomorphs, the Jurassic Park dinosaurs, and even Stitch would be considered “strange beasts” or kanji.

Daikaiju is Japanese for “God Strange Beast” or “Giant Strange Beasts” which would lead one to the likes of Gamera, Godzilla, Anne Hathaway, and the Ants from THEM!
