Hi guys,
I haven't been around much but I thought I'd share my latest creation(well my only creation for awhile now) The lyrics are original but it's a take-off on "The Monster Mash" I'd hope to get it done for Halloween, but alas it didn't happen. I hope you find it somewhat humorous. Any advice on the mix, etc would be much appreciated I will be reviewing some songs shortly

I was working in the Woo Han lab one night
On a deadly virus that gave me a fright
A bat got loose and the virus escaped
And quickly spread through the human race   

We need a jab! A monster jab
A monster jab! That’s made in a lab
We need a jab! That we must have
We need a jab! Ya, a monster jab

So Igor went to work, in the very same lab
Within a few days, he’d made the jab
Tested on vampires, so it must be safe
The humans were told, to just have faith
 
We have a jab! A monster jab
A monster jab! Igor’s made in the lab
Trust the jab! It’s not a money grab
We have a jab! It’s really fab!

A zombie apocalypse has begun
The great divide is so much fun
Most trust the jab, but there are some
That think it might be a little, underdone

This bad little virus is running a-muck
It’s caused a pandemic, which really sucks
Now everyone’s masked and filled with fear
We can’t go to pubs and drink our beer

So get the jab! It’s the answer, it’s clear
The monster jab! You have nothing to fear
Get the jab! We’ll buy you a beer
Get the jab! Or loose your career

If anyone doesn’t get the jab
They’re going on the rack and that’s real sad
Igor’s chewing at the bit
To torture those, that won’t submit

Oh life could be a dream
If everyone would get the jab today
Then we could a be in paradise again
Life could be a dream for all

So trust in the lab, that made the bug,
That made us sick, so we lost our jobs
So trust the lab that made the jab today

Cause they all know what’s best for us
And we don’t have a say
So do what you’re told and don’t make a fuss
That way we’ll get to play
Cause we just want to be happy, happy in paradise
We just want to be happy everyday

So come on humans, get with the program
Get your jab passports for the grand slam
Sign up for the jabs, as many as it takes
Lets knock this bug out for heavens sakes

So get the jab! Ya, the monster jab
The monster jab! You must get stabbed
Get the jab! Or end up on a slab
Get the jab! Unless you’re a crab…it’s the only exemption

I have added this video to go with it

great to hear you again

very wacky stuff, musically

there are lots of nutty opinions and practices
I hate the manipulation surrounding the pandemic
I hate hearing from coincidence theorists.

I had the jab and was ill from the side effects, first time I've been sick in decades.
tough times

I was never a fan of the original monster mash.
ah well.

Hola @crystalsuzy

I've had a great time listening to the song. The mix, maybe it could be good if the backing has more volume and a lower frequency?

[MonnoDB]

Very clever @crystalsuzy and wonderfully whacky as usual! I agree with @moraamarolaloba that the backing could be brought up and particularly those BVs..

You are so creative and the lyrics are a blast! Love the transitions..

Great to see you back! Hope to hear more from you!

@crystalsuzy - Brilliant! totally captivating, I can imagine a collab bvetween you and @rightly

It sort of reminded me of Bohemian Rhapsody, the way it moved between scenes, but musically it's really cool.

Great to hear from you again Suzy

[PaulAds]

Lyrics are brilliant…a mad-cap rollercoaster ride of laughing in the face of lunacy.

I would maybe tried to have got the backing track a little more sorted…but it doesn’t alter the super fun that’s served up.

Always lovely to hear from you, CS

I must not forget to get you on the payroll

I'm fabulously talented, no doubt, as is Suzy, needless to say
if she can use me I can be found.

Err..the saviour of the human race. We need this right now!!

Thanks for taking a listen, even though 'The Monster Mash' was never your cup of tea...not really mine either but this just suited it so well, I just had to do it.
I hate the manipulation surrounding this pandemic as well and it just never seems to end.

Thanks for your kind accolades Rich. "Bohemian Rhapsody"! WOW! thanks!
I'm hoping to be more active on the forum in the new year.
I hope others will be as well.
It's been mentioned before that rightly and I join forces at some point.
I'm totally open to that, so we'll see...

Hiya Suzy!! So good to hear a song of yours again….it’s been too long!🤩🎶👍🏻🎶 I always enjoy your wild and wacky creations…this was a lot of fun to listen to….I wonder if on the strength of this some may dress up as crabs and try and get in the pub unvaccinated??🤪😆🤦🏼‍♂️ Well done mate!🍻👊🏻

Thanks Paul, I'm humbled. I've tried to remix the backing track. Hopefully it sounds a little better.
It was sure nice to hear a new song from you as well. Seems we're on the same roller-coaster ride.

Hi Suzy, lovely pastiche of 50s styles.  I particularly liked the section that starts with "life could be a dream"... that's pretty (works well with or without the comedy of the lyrics).  Hilarious closing line too about the crabs... I dig it when your tracks get surreal.  Mix sounded good, I did like the effect on the main deep voice but once or twice I couldn't make out what it was saying without reading the lyrics, maybe something to help that cut through the mix a little more would be good.  Had loads of fun listening to this.
