Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Three hundred years ago
I thought I might get some sleep
I stretched myself out on a antique bed
And my spirit did a midnight creep
[Verse 2]
You know I'll never sleep no more
[Verse 3]
It seemed to me that it just ain't wise
Did you ever wake up in the morning
With a zomby woof behind your eye?
[Verse 4]
Just about as evil as you could be
[Verse 5]
I am the zomby woof
I'm that creature all the ladies been talkin' about
I am the zomby woof
They all seek for shelter when I come chargin' out
Tellin' you all the zomby truth
Here I'm is, the zomby woof
Tellin' you all the zomby truth
Here I'm is
[Verse 6]
Really alrighty, he the zomby woof
Really alrighty, he the zomby woof
[Verse 7]
The said, "Oh, really," and they was alrighty
And I was a zomby for you, little lady
[Verse 8]
I got a great big pointed fang
Which is my zomby tooth
My right foot's bigger than my other one is
Like a regular zomby hoof
If I raid your dormitorium
Don't try to remain aloof
I might snatch you up screamin' through the window all naked and
Do it to you up on the roof
Don't mess with the zomby woof
[Verse 9]
I am about as evil as a boogie man can be
Tellin' you all the zomby truth
Here I'm is, the zomby woof
Tellin' you all the zomby truth
Here I'm is, the zomby woof
