That Button

This is a parody of Wild Cherry's "Play That Funky Music"

Hey, dig it now

Yeah, hey

Yeah once I was a smooth grave diggah

Diggin' it all night and all day

I never had no problems, yeah

With extra limbs and organs comin' my way

Then I met up with this groovy mad man

With funky gadgets that would blow your mind

Payin' me a pretty penny (Yes he did)

For all the freshest brains that I could find

Yeah he had gadgets and gizmos and crazy cool contraptions

And just when I saw it, a voice inside my head said

What's that button there do, hunchback?

Why's that button oh so bright?

What's that button there do, hunchback?

Press down that button, press that button down until you die

'Til you die?

'Til you die!

Oh my

Well I tried to stop this feeling

Yeah huh, I thought that I was out of my mind

How could I be so foolish (how could I)

Cause that button's not the pushin' kind

Still I had to fight this fever

A crazy impulse I can not explain (what did you do)

I said "I must go back there" (I've gotta go back)

See those buttons still be flashin' the same

Yeah he had gadgets and gizmos and crazy cool contraptions

And just when I saw it, a voice inside my head said

What's that button there do, hunchback?

Why's that button oh so bright?

What's that button there do, hunchback?

Press down that button, press that button down until you die

'Til you die (Yeah)

'Til you die

(Gotta press that big red button down!)

(Hey, wait a minute)

Now first it wasn't easy

Come to grips with words in my mind, my hands were gettin' shaky

Negotiate my mental decline

But now it's so much better (it's so much better)

I've taught those voices who gets their way

So I went back to that groovy mad man

To prove that everything was okay

'Cuz he had gadgets and gizmos and crazy cool contraptions

And just when I saw it, a voice inside my head said

What's that button there do, hunchback?

Press it down with all of your might

Press that flashy button hunchback

Press down that button, press that button down until you die

'Til you die

Yeah, 'til you die

The voice said, press that flashy button

(Press that flashy button)

Press that flashy button

(Press that big red flashy button down)

Press that flashy button

(Press that flashy button)

Press that flashy button

Press it, press it, press it, won't ya

Press that flashy button hunchback

Press it down with all of your might, oh yeah

Press that flashy button hunchback

Press it down with all of your might

Press that flashy button hunchback

Press it down with all of your might

Uh oh…

Lost: Giant Squirrel

This is a parody of "Jessie's Girl" by Rick Springfield.

I lost my monster squirrel

That rodent should be easy to find

Yeah he's got a fluffy tail

He's seven stories high

Got cute big bucky teeth like I drew here on this sign

Yeah, I got reward upon the sign

If you see him you just got to let me know it

Phone number's on the bottom, you can call me any time

You know I wish I had my giant squirrel

Why can't I find my giant squirrel

Where can I find a rodent like that?

I passed over by the pound

It's still standing so he hasn't been found

Marines are closing in and their orders are to shoot

But bullets bounce right off him so the point is probably moot

Yeah, rewards written there on the sign

If you see him you just got to telephone it

My number's on the bottom, you can call me any time

You know I wish I had my giant squirrel

Why can't I find my giant squirrel

Where can I find a rodent like that?

My giant squirrel

I wish I had my giant squirrel

Where can I find a rodent

Where can I find a rodent like that

And one more thing you really oughta know That squirrel's a digger, everywhere he goes So if you see ravines or mountains that are new You gotta let me know, it could just be a clue

Tell me, why can't I find a rodent like that?

You know, I wish I could find my giant squirrel

I wish I'd find my giant squirrel

Where is my giant squirrel?

Where can I find a rodent like that?

Where's my giant squirrel

I want to find my giant squirrel

I want, I want my giant squirrel

I Stomped the City

This is a parody of Bob Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff"

I stomped the city

But I didn't stomp the doctor's lab

I stomped the city

But I didn't stomp the doctor's lab

Yeah all around the rubble

There's hunchbacks with shrinking rays

They say I'm the monster they want to nab

For the flaten'n of the doctor's lab

For the flaten'n of the doctor's lab

But I say!

I stomped the city

Honestly it was a lot of fun

I stomped the city

Now they're coming with their shrinky ray guns

Doctor Goo, well he created me

Giant size, and eyes that glow

Every time that I stomp something

He give me potions that make me grow

He give me potions and they make me grow

And so

I stomped the city

It's hard not to when you're this immense

What happened to the doctor's lab?

I stomped the city

But you know they pack those buildings in too dense

Freedom came my way one day

And I found my way into town

All of those buildings crowded all around

And so I stomped them down

Yeah, I stomped, I stomped, I stomped the town

They put those buildings in my way!

I stomped the city

But I say, I did not stomp the doctor's lab

I stomped the city, oh yeah

But I didn't stomp the doctor's lab

Hunchback Rag

This is an original barbershop quartet parody

The doctor's labrotory

is the setting to our story

it's where we spend our ti-i-ime

While he's creating creatures

mixing mixtures in his beakers

we're mopping monster sli-i-ime

Cause those monsters that he's making

have a hunger there's no slaking

and their manners are a mess

(oh yes) it's true

And their drooly sloppy munchin's

and their gruely gloppy crunchin's

left a mess of monster goo-oo-oo

Your monster's cooo-ooo-ool

But it's got a drool-ie prob-lem

a crunchin

and a munchin

and a lunchin

* it's not even potty trained I fear *

( -Oh-  dear)

But now I figure

we got a bigger problem

That big bad beastie's coming over here!

over here, over here, over here?!?

When that monster's got the munchies

it isn't just a hunch

-He's- -Got-

hunchbacks on his miiii-iiind

Now our knees they are a quaking

We're a shivering and shaking

-Cuz- -We're-

Really in a bind

(We're hunchbacks - not lunch snacks!)

You Big Bad Beast

Go get yourself away

Right now!  -To-Day!-

(Bad monster!  Stay!)

And now you

-See- -We-

We got another problem

-I'm- -AAA-…

fraid we're over-worked and under-paid

So, Doc (here)

Here we are (with)

With our picket signs

sign.  ^sign.  ^^sign.

We're strike-ing

On strike now

It's A-Bout time

time.  ^time.  ^^time.

Don't think you'll

Get a hunch-back

A-Cross our picket LI-IIIIiiiIIII-IIIIiiiiIIII-IIIIIIiiiiIIIIine!

Here is a list of our demands.

- We find the title hunchback derogatory and henceforth wish to be called:

Vertically Challenged Anatomical Aquisition Specialists

- Additionally, we would like you to shift your research to monsters that are

Small and Cuddly

- "and a new shovel!"

- Yes.  And…

- "a big one too cuz that monster leaves huge piles of…"

- We DEMAND proper chiropractic coverage!

Zombie Squirrel

This is a parody of Michael Jackson's "Billy Jean"

I was driving home, one strange Halloween - and then like a dream

Took a turn, by the old walnut tree - and there it was

In front of me - much too late - too slow down

Tell me why did the squirrel - cross the road - with that nut - in it's mouth

Well I veered to the right - and that squirrel dodged right too

Veered to the left - but that squirrel.. did not know.. what to do

Then I hit - felt the bump - heard the sound

People always told me - be careful out when you drive

And don't go around - running - those - squirrels - down

And mother always told me - put on clean underwear

Then that squirrel jumped up on my car - and gave me quite a scare

(oh mama)

Zombie squirrel you got run over

Now you are flat - and say that - I took your nut

But - my door - is - going to stay shut

You say that I took your nut - but my door is going to stay shut

(silly squirreley giggle-chatters)

Around the block - and - through - the car wash

You held my wiper blade

But I couldn't stand - your nutty squirrel demands

(For) - al.monds  and  pe.cans

Cause I crushed - the walnut - you had found

Look, I a-pol-o-gise

For your truly dubious demise

and I (sym-path-ize) sym-path-ize (yeah)

But I don't have your nut!

Gas tank nearing empty - I knew what had to be

Turned around - traveled back - crashed into that tree!

And the nuts began a-falling

From the sky but not in time (oh)

For I crushed - the walnut - you had found

eee eee nutty nut yummy yummy nut nut (in squirrely voice)

People always told me to pack along some spare cashews

In case a zombie squirrel ever came around

But that squirrel came chatty closer

In that moment, then I knew

That there was nothing I could do

Now it wanted macaroons

Nut nutty cookie please (in squirrely voice)

Zombie squirrel you got run over.  Zombie squirrel you got run over

You say that I took your nut

Zombie squirrel you got run over.  Zombie squirrel you got run over

You say that I took your nut - but my door is going to stay shut

Hunchback in Disguise

This is a parody of Elvis Presley's "Devil in Disguise"

You look like a monster

Stomp trucks like a monster

Smell funky like a monster

But I got wise

You're a hunchback in disguise

Oh yes you are

A hunchback in disguise

You fooled me with your stompin'

Your growlin' and your grunts

Heaven knows you were not as big

I thought you were a runt

You munch like a monster

Belch like a monster

Got a stench like a monster

But I got wise

You're a hunchback in disguise

Oh yes you are

A hunchback in disguise

I thought that you were a monster

And how was I to know

Heaven help me, I had to breathe

That strong monster B. O.

You stink like a monster

Smell rank like a monster

Really reek like a monster

But I got wise

You're a hunchback in disguise

Oh yes you are

A hunchback in disguise

You're a hunchback in disguise

Oh yes you are

A hunchback in disguise

Oh yes you are

A hunchback in disguise

Gonna Show Them All

This is a parody of Billy Joel's "The Longest Time"

Oh, oh, oh

Gonna show them all

Oh, oh, oh

Gonna show them all

I'm the voice you're hearing in your mind

Don't ignore me, that would be unkind

Your monster's pretty

It wants to smash a city

Just let it go, it's gonna show them all

Once you suffered ridicule and jeers

Now the time of reconing draws near

They're gonna pay now

For the things they used to say now

Your monster's really gonna show them all

Oh, oh, oh

Gonna show them all

Oh, oh, oh

Gonna show them

See your monster standing strong and tall

Tribute to you, standing there at all

Crushing a train rail

With one mighty toenail

I know your monster's gonna show them all

Maybe it has hungered too long

For something to bite

That tastes like Hong Kong

Maybe it wants something to smash

Wants to hear a crash

Is that too much to ask for

They said you were crazy and a fool

Now they will be drenched in monster drool

Your monster's vicious

Your revenge will be delicious

It really, really's gonna show them all

Maybe it's got too long a claw

Needs something to scratch

A building to gnaw

Don't you know it only wants to bash

Turn city into trash

Is that too much to ask for

Now it is your respons-abil-ity

Since it is your monster prodigy

It wants it so bad

I think you aught to know that

Your giant monster's gonna show them all

I'll Be Your Hunchback Pal

This is a parody of Paul Simon's "You Can Call Me Al"

A man limps down the street

He says why am I hunched in the shoulders now

Why am I hunched in the shoulders

What's with this lazy eye

What am I supposed to be?

I need some new occupation

Headaches in the bell tower

Throbbing echoes of the sound

Bellringer Bellringer

Climbing Quasimodo-like

Far above the cold stone floor

Mr. Bellringer Bellringer

Get these bats away from me

You know I don't find this stuff amusing anymore

If you'll be my scientist

I can be your hunchback pal

I can call you doctor

And doctor when you call me

You can call me Ralph

A man walks down the street

Mumbles where the hell's my plutonium

Got a big package of plutonium

Mixed with my potions and contraptions

Where've all my hunchbacks gone

What's dewey decimal

Who's going to help me out

Now that my helpers have

Gone Gone

He left his secret lab-ro-tory

His master work and apparatus

All alone alone

With his implements and experiments

No time left to find or organize

If you'll be my scientist

I can be your hunchback pal

I can call you doctor

And doctor when you call me

You can call me Ralph

Call me Ralph

Two men walk down the street

One in a wrinkled lab coat

One in a burlap shirt

One breaks the silence with a sound

You need a place to fit in

I need a helping hand

It'll mean long hours

This ain't no union job

Job job

Body parts and toxic waste

Graveyards and asylums

Haul'n brains around around

Monsters on the cutting board

Hideous assembly

He say's "Why not?  I'll give this gig a try!"

If you'll be my scientist

I can be your hunchback pal

I can call you doctor

And doctor when you call me

You can call me Ralph

Call me Ralph

Stomping Spree

This is a parody of KT Tunstall's "Suddenly I See" That beast is a mountain of fur

It's a mountain of fur

It's head's like a mongoloid squirrel

Like a mongoloid squirrel

The buildings that surround it seem to sparkle in the night

Like nuts it wants to bury, all trembling with fright

With feet like bombs

It's decimated towns with beastly brawn

It's a stomping spree (stomp stomping spree)

It's a monster - time to flee

It's a stomping spree (stomp stomping spree)

And that's why this city's soon to be debris

There's a squid come to battle the squirrel

come to battle the squirrel

It's got limbs that'll wiggle and whirl

Yeah wiggle and whirl

With tentacles and mandribles it's such a scary sight

It's a squid from fifty fathoms and it's filled with fishy might

And win or lose

It's the city that'll be belting out the blues

It's a stomping spree (stomp stomping spree)

It's some monsters - time to flee

It's a stomping spree (stomp stomping spree)

And that's why this city's soon to be debris

A scientist showdown

And they're mad as can be

Their creations are a clashing, while they cheer with manic glee

Oh their monsters collide and their egos tower

They're drunk with power, yeah

They've got the power to scheme

The power to make

A power supreme, mad-men

It's a stomping spree (stomp stomping spree)

It's some monsters - time to flee

It's a stomping spree (stomp stomping spree)

And that's why this city's soon to be debris

Mad Scientist Rhapsody

This is a parody of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" Is this my own lab

Or university

The future of science

Shackled by beuracracy

Open your eyes

Think, realize, and see

I'm just a genius, I.Q. two-eighty-three

But I have grand ideas, a grand design

An awesome gift, an awesome mind

Sci-en-tific Progress - the only thing that matters to me

To me

Mayor, just deranged a man

Put a cathode in his brain

Flipped my switch, now he's insane

Mayor, tenure had just begun

But now I've gone and thrown it all away

Mayor, oooh

I've got a need to show you all

This is a minor setback, I am quite infallable

It's science, it's science, the only thing that matters

Today, you cast me out

Sent me running on the rail

Threats of lawsuit, threats of jail

Farewell, laboratory, behind me now

Gotta take my tattered notes and start anew

Mayor, oooh

I don't want to fail

Have you no regard for science at all…

I see a little silhouetto of a plan

Calculation, inspiration, per-mut-a-tion and now

Thunderbolt and lightning, terribly exciting me!

(Is it working) Yes, it's working

(Is it working) Yes, it's working

Yes, it's working, yes it's working - It's Alive!  (maniacial laughter)

It's my creation, it is unstoppable!

(It's his creation, it's going to show them all!)

(Rise up and fight for his genius and … oh!)

(Giant hands, giant teeth, will you let me go?)

It hungers!  No!  It will not let you go. (Let me go)

It hungers!  It will not let you go. (Let me go)

It hungers!  It will not let you go. (Let me go)

It will not let you go. (Let me go)

It will not let you go. (Let me go)

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

(Oh giant monster, giant monster, giant monster let me go)

The science books have a chapter set aside for me, for me, for me!

So you think you can impose supression on me

So you think I'll just cast my brainchild in the sea

Oh mayor!  Can't do this to me mayor!

My creature is coming, my creature is coming for you-who-who

It's the only thing that matters

Anyone can see

It's the only thing that matters, it's the only thing that matters to me

Sci-en-tif-ic pro-gress

And I'm too brainy for instructions too brainy for instructions

Time wasting obstructions

And I'm too brainy for your brainy

Too brainy for your brainy

No way I'll change my mind

I'm a genius, you know what I mean

And I'm thinking brainy thoughts in my labcoat

Yeah in my labcoat, in my labcoat, yeah

I flex my brainy brain in my labcoat

And I'm too brainy for my notes, too brainy for my notes

Too brainy I wrote

And I'm too brainy for my pen, too brainy for my pen

Too brainy and then - don'cha dare misquote

I'm a genius, you know what I mean

And I'm thinking brainy thoughts in my labcoat

Yeah in my labcoat, in my labcoat, yeah
