Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You're in my world now not your world
And I got friends on the other side
He's got friends on the other side
(I find delight in the gruesome and grim)
[Verse 2]
Sit down at my table
Put your minds at ease
(I put a spell on you and now you're mine)
If you relax it will enable me to do anything I please
[Verse 3]
I can read your future (Be prepared)
I can change it 'round some, too (Trust in me)
I'll look deep into your (Poor unfortunate souls, so sad, so true)
Heart and soul, make your wildest dreams come true
[Verse 4]
I got voodoo, I got hoodoo
I got things I ain't even tried!
And I got friends on the other side
[Verse 5]
And if you aren't shaken, there's something very wrong
'Cause this may be the last time you hear the Boogie song
[Verse 6]
Woah (Woah)
Woah (Woah)
Woah (Woah)
(There isn't a boy who won't enjoy)
Oh, I'm the Oogie Boogie man!
Beware, take care, he rides alone!
[Verse 7]
This vampire bat
This inhuman beast
He ought to be locked up
And never released
He swears to the longest day he's dead
He'll show them that he can get a head!
[Verse 8]
The world was such a wholesome place until
He had a plan to shake things up
And that's the gospel truth
[Verse 9]
Are you ready? (Fire, hellfire)
(Are you ready?)
Are you ready? (This fire in my skin)
(Are you ready?)
[Verse 10]
Transformation central (Yes it is he, but not as you know him)
(Transformation central)
Reformation central (Reformation central)
(Read my lips, and come to grips with reality)
Transmogrification central
Can you feel it?
[Verse 11]
You're changin', you're changin', you're changin' all right!
Far from the ones who abandoned you
Chasing the love of these humans (Love is an open door)
Who made you feel wanted
(Because they guzzle up the things you prize)
[Verse 12]
I hope you're satisfied
But if you ain't, don't blame me
[Verse 13]
Don't forget it
Don't forget it
Don't forget it
You'll regret it
[Verse 14]
This land we behold
This beauty untold
A man can be bold
It all can be sold!
As a specimen, yes, I'm intimidating
[Verse 15]
And you can blame my friends on the other side
(You got what you wanted, but you lost what you had!)
Shh!
