OPENER   Sides face grand square
I was working in the lab late one night, When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
And a monster from a slab began to rise, And suddenly, to my surprise

From my laboratory in the Coswell East, Where the master bedroom where the vampires feast
The ghouls all come from their humble abodes, To get a jolt from my electrodes
Out of his coffin Max's voice did ring, Seems he was troubled by just one thing
Opened the lid and shook his fist and said, "Whatever happened to my Transylvania Twist?"

Four men (or monsters) promenade inside the ring, Come back home and everybody swing, Swing and promenade, you know he did the mash
It caught on in a flash, he did the monster mash

TAG    Swing her   The ghouls are having fun dancing to the band,

And the monster mash is the hit of the land

FIGURE     1 & 3 square thru get four hands you go, Dosado with the corner one time around you know, Curlique and then scoot back my friend, Boys run around that girl, star thru and go, Dive thru and square thru 3/4 round and go, Swing the corner lady and you promenade you know, Promenade you know, he did the mash
It caught on in a flash, he did the monster mash
