The first of two songs I'm doing this month! This one is a cover of the Halloween classic "Monster Mash," but with a D&D flavor. I'm working on the music video edit right now! You can download the mp3 here. Hope you like it!

LYRICS

I was prepping for a game, late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
From behind my screen, did a monster rise
And suddenly, to my surprise

(He did the mash)
He did the monster mash
(The monster mash)
It was a hack and slash
(He did the mash)
A total party smash
(He did the mash)
He did the monster mash
(Wa-ooo)

From the Underdark and all Nine Hells
To the Plane of Fire where the Hell Hound dwells
They came from the planes where they all live
To get a spot in my initiative

(They did the mash)
They did the monster mash
(The monster mash)
It was a hack and slash
(They did the mash)
A total party smash
(They did the mash)
They did the monster mash

The lich rose from the dead (Wa-ooo, Power Word-)
Prepared for some bloodshed (-Kill, ooo, grab your sword)
The guests included Orcus, (Wa-ooo, Power Word-)
Tiamat and her heads (Kill, oo!)

The scene was fire, all were having a gas
Strahd on bass, backed by his wolves and bats
The Beholders were about to arrive
With their vocal group, 'The Nine-Inch Eyes’

(They played the mash)
They played the monster mash
(The monster mash)
It was a hack and slash
(They played the mash)
A total party smash
(They played the mash)
They played the monster mash

The succubus arrived and pouted her lips
She stomped her foot, put her hands on her hips
She’d stepped away from her fiendish tryst
To say: "Whatever happened to my Abyssal Twist?”

(It’s now the mash)
It's now the monster mash
(The monster mash)
And it's a hack and slash
(It's now the mash)
A total party smash
(It's now the mash)
It's now the monster mash

Now everything’s cool, and they hang out with me
We talk about murder and we cackle with glee
But later tonight, when my party arrives
We’ll have a hell of a session... I hope they survive!

(Then they can mash)
Then they can monster mash
(The monster mash)
And they can hack and slash
(Then they can mash)
A total party smash
(Then they can mash)
Then they can monster mash

(Wa hoo, monster mash)
etc.
