Friends On The Other Side
You’re in my world now, not your world
And I’ve got friends on the other side
(He’s got friends on the other side)
I find delight in the gruesome and grim
Sit down at my table
Put your mind at ease
(I put a spell on you) If you relax, it will enable me
(Now you’re mine) to do anything I please
I can read your future
(Be prepared) I can change it ’round some too
(Trust in me) I’ll look deep into your
(Poor unfortunate souls) heart and soul
Make your wildest dreams come true (so sad; so true)
I’ve got voodoo, I’ve got hoodoo
I’ve got things I ain’t even tried
‘Cause I’ve got friends on the other side
And if you aren’t shaking, there’s something very wrong
Cause this may be the last time you hear the Boogie Song
Woah (woah), woah (woah)
Woah (There isn’t a boy who won’t enjoy)
I’m the Oogie Boogie Man
Beware, take care, he rides alone!
This vampire bat, this inhuman beast
He ought to be locked up and never released
He swears to the longest day he’s dead
He’ll show him that he can get ahead
This world was such a wholesome place until
He had a plan to shake things up
And that’s the gospel truth
Are you ready (Like fire)
(Are you ready) (Hellfire)
Are you ready (Are you ready) (This fire in my skin)
Transformation Central (Yes, it’s he)
(Transformation Central) (But not as you know him)
Reformation Central (Reformation Central)
Transmogrification Central (Read my lips and come to grips with reality)
Can you feel it?
You’re changing, you’re changing, you’re changing alright
Far from the ones who abandoned you
Chasing the love of these humans (Love is an open door)
Who made you feel wanted (Because they guzzle up the things you prize)
I hope you’re satisfied
But if you ain’t
Don’t blame me
Don’t forget it
Don’t forget it
Don’t forget it
You’ll regret it
This land we behold
This beauty untold
A man can be bold
It all can be sold
As a specimen, yes, I’m intimidating
And you can blame my friends on the other side
(You got what you wanted!)
(But you lost what you had!)
Shh…
