Mad, Mad, Doctor Grand


This is a parody of Jim Croce's "Bad, Bad, Leroy Brown"

On the South side of Chicago
Lives a hunchback with one hand
And he's earnin' his pay
A'haulin' brains all day
For a madman by the name of Grand

Grand says he's a doctor
A doc' of what I do not know
He's got wildfires a'burnin' in his eyes
On a face as cold as snow

And he's mad, mad, doctor Grand
Madder than the Hatter in Wonderland
Madder than Frankenstein
More twisted than a ball o' twine

Some madmen like their potions
Or their shiny time machines
But Doctor Grand wouldn't settle for less
Than a monster both big and mean
He got a secret labrotory
His computer is a Cray
He got a laser ray gun in his pocket for fun
He got some monster D.N.A.

And he's mad, mad, doctor Grand
Madder than the Hatter in Wonderland
Madder than Frankenstein
More twisted than a ball o' twine

Outside his lab not long ago
Lighting lit the night
That monster's fingers started
Twitchin' all around
And ooh it was a sight
That doctor's eyes blazed brighter
And his laughter then began
But Doctor Grand learned a lesson that night
Bout monster makin and short-sighted plans

And he's mad, mad, doctor Grand
Madder than the Hatter in Wonderland
Madder than Frankenstein
More twisted than a ball o' twine

(Slow, spooky tone on this stanza)
Well on that cloudy moonless night
Chicago woke to the monster's sound
***ROAR***
The sun came up that morn to find
Chicago six feet underground

And he was mad, mad, doctor Grand
Madder than the Hatter in Wonderland
Madder than Frankenstein
More twisted than a ball o' twine
