Lovecraft (with apologies to the B-52's)
LOVECRAFT
(sung to the tune of "Love Shack" by the B-52's)
If you see a somber wraith by the side of the road whispering,
"I am the shade of Lovecraft..."
Lovecraft, yeah, yeah
I'm headin' down the Ayesbury Pikeway
Lookin' for an Arkham getaway
Dunwich is somewhere that-away
The Old Ones are waking, and we're all gonna die
And we're running away to Lovecraft
The Old Ones are waking, and I'm casting a spell
So step on the gas, or they will drag us to Hell!
Mister Lovecraft was a strange little man who wrote weird stories
Lovecraft, baby (a-Lovecraft, baby)
Lovecraft, baby, Lovecraft
Lovecraft, baby, Lovecraft
Lovecraft, baby, Lovecraft (Lovecraft, that's where it's at)
Lovecraft, baby, Lovecraft (Lovecraft, that's where it's at)
A voice said (boo!) "Great Cthulhu"
So said the ghost of Lovecraft
Well, it's somewhere back in a crumbling graveyard
Just a forgotten tomb under a gibbous moon
Fungus on the tombstones
Grave mould on the coffins
Laughter in darkness
Whispers in the shadows
Mister Lovecraft was a strange little man who wrote weird stories
Lovecraft, baby (Lovecraft, baby)
Lovecraft, that's where it's at
Lovecraft, that's where it's at
Screamin' and a-cryin'
Howlin' and a-dyin'
Blood on altars running red
Sacrificed to feed the dead
The graveyard is shakin'
Yeah, the graveyard is shakin'
The graveyard is shakin' when everybody's
Runnin' around and around and around and around
Great Cthulhu's dreamin', everybody's screamin', baby
The dead are risin' from their graves just to get down
Great Cthulhu's dreamin', everybody's screamin', baby
Get down, Lovecraft
Get down, Lovecraft
The Old Ones are waking, and we're better off dead--so let's party instead!
The world is ending, let's party 'til our last breath
So eat, dance, be merry, and drink yourselves to death!

Lovecraft, baby, Lovecraft (Lovecraft, that's where it's at)
Bang, bang, bang, on the tomb, baby
Bang a little louder, baby!
Bang, bang, bang, on the tomb, baby
I can't hear you!
Bang, bang, bang, on the tomb, baby
Bang a little louder, Honey!
Bang, bang, bang, on the tomb, baby
I CAN'T HEAR YOU!
Bang, bang, bang, on the tomb, baby (Bang a little louder)
Bang, bang, bang, on the tomb, baby
Bang, bang (On the tomb, baby)
Bang, bang (On the tomb)
Bang, bang (On the tomb, baby)
Bang, bang
You're what?
CTHULHU! *shudder*
