Well, well, well, what have we here?
Sandy Claws, huh?
Ooh, I'm really scared
So, you're the one everybody's talkin' about?
You're joking, you're joking
I can't believe my eyes
You're joking 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
When 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 shaking
There's something very wrong
'Cause this may be the last time you hear the Boogie song, oh (wow)
Oh (wow)
Oh (oh, he's the Oogie Boogie Man)
Well, if I'm feelin' ansty
And I've 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 Sandy Claws to add a little spice (oh)
Oh (oh)
Oh (oh)
Oh yeah, I'm the Boogie Man (oh yeah, he's the 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 joking, you're joking
I can't believe my ears
Would someone shut this fella up?
I'm drowning 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
Well, what are you going to do?
I'm going to do the best I can
ย
Oh, the sound of rolling dice
To me is 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, oh boy
Now that'd be just fine
Release me fast, or you'll 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 prayer
'Cause I'm Mr. Oogie Boogie
And you ain't going nowhere
