Monster Rap (Frankenstein) 1984 LP Single Lyrics by The Edgar Winter Group

1984

In a laboratory once upon a time
At work was a doctor named Frankenstein
Arm by leg and foot by knee
He created a freak of society
From scratch he built him limb by limb
And then he named his creation right after him
He gave it a brain, and even it a heart
People said he was insane but he had to be smart
How was he to foresee what the future would be
When he was dealing with that unknown technology
Now the creature was assembled and his body was whole
But he had yet to achieve his ultimate goal
The final step which he did contrive
He used electrical energy to bring him alive
Frankenstein was overcharged with a simple TIZZNAP
A million mega-volts than he should have been
[Chorus]
The lightning zapped him too much juice
You better look out, Frankenstein is loose
(back up singers - (What's that you say?
The lightning zapped him too much juice?)
Uh-huh, you better look out Frankie's loose
[Verse 2]
As time went on, Frankenstein got strong
The doctor tried to teach him right from wrong
Every day of his life was a new experience
As he continued to amaze the young scientist
Day by day, hour by hour by hour
The doctor tried to learn to control his power
He was a victim of the future shock of overkill
But to destroy his creation ws beyond his will
[Verse 3]
A sequence of events began to unfold
He began to realize he could not be controlled
The reason that the creature could not be tamed
Was the frame he obtained was criminally insane
The people of the town called Frankenstein a terror
And even the doctor considered him an error
He was a cold blooded killer, breakin' the law
The worst menace to society you ever saw
[Chorus]
The lightning zapped him too much juice
You better look out, Frankenstein is loose
(back up singers - (What's that you say?
The lightning zapped him too much juice?)
Uh-huh, you better look out Frankie's loose
[Verse 4]
He was a horrible monster in the people's eyes
And that's when they decided to organize
There was nothing left for the doctor to do
And he knew he was in a lot of trouble too
So he decided to join the people of the town
Who were coming to burn that castle down
So they lit the fire and as the flames rose higher
To destroy that monster was their one desire
The castle was left in ragged ruins
As the end result of everything they were doing
Then the people went home feeling satisfied
They were certain that Frankenstein had died
Dead or alive, nobody knows
Through the fight to survive his legend grows
Just who was a monster and who was a man
I'll leave that up to you to decide if you can
[Chorus]
Now the doctor said there is no use
Look out, Frankenstein is loose
(back up singers - What's that you say?
The doctor says there is no use?)
Uh-huh, you better look out Frankie's loose
[Verse 5]
He's the monster man with a brand new plan
He's gonna win you over, gonna make you a fan
Anyway he can, anyway he will
Well he's looking bad and he's dressed to kill
Don't get frightened and don't be scared
He's gonna blow your mind so get it prepared
Frankenstein is back with a brand new sound
Of electroment is gonna turn you around
[Verse 6]
Some people think Frankenstein is mean at heart
Everything he sees, he wants to rip it apart
But I'm here to tell you that's a bad rap jive
It's tough on a monster just staying alive
So don't go off in a state of alarm
Frankenstein don't mean no one no harm
Well don't you bother and don't you run
Frankenstein is out to see that you have some fun
[Chorus]
The doctor said there is no use
Frankenstein is loose
(back up singers - What's that you say?
The doctor says there is no use?)
Uh-huh, you better look out Frankie's loose
