SIGNER
Well, well, well, what have we here?
Sandy Claws, huh?
Oh, I´m really scared
So you´re the one everybody´s talkin´ about, ha, ha
You´re jokin´, you´re jokin´
I can´t believe my eyes
You´re jokin´ 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 shakin´
Then there´s something very wrong
´Cause this may be the last time now
That you hear the boogie song, ohhh
BAND

SIGNER
Ohhh
BAND
Ohhh, he´s the Oogie Boogie Man
SIGNER
Well if I´m feelin´ antsy
And there´s 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
BAND
Ohhh
SIGNER
Oh, yeah

Ohhh

Ohhh
BAND AND SIGNER
Oh, yeah, I´m (he´s) the Oogie Boogie Man
ANONYMOUS GUY
Release me now
Or you must face the dire consequences
The children are expecting me
So please, come to your senses
SIGNER
You´re jokin´, you´re jokin´
I can´t believe my ears
Would someone shut this fella up
I´m drownin´ 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
ANONYMOUS GUY
What are you going to do?
SIGNER
I´m gonna do the best I can
(Musical interlude)
Oh, the sound of rollin´ 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, old boy
Now that´d be just fine
ANONYMOUS GUY
Release me fast or you will have to
Answer for this heinous act
SIGNER
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 a prayer
´Cause I´m Mr. Oogie Boogie
And you ain´t going nowhere
Well, well, well, what have we here?
Sandy Claws, huh?
Oh, I´m really scared
So you´re the one everybody´s talkin´ about, ha, ha
You´re jokin´, you´re jokin´
