So, you're the one everybody's talkin' about?
Em C B
You're joking, you're joking I can't believe my eyes
Em C B
You're joking me, you gotta be, this can't be the right guy
Am F E
He's ancient (ancient), he's ugly (ugly), I don't know which is worse
Am N.C.
I might just split a seam now, if I don't die laughing first
[Verse 1]
C#m A G#
Mr. Oogie Boogie says there's trouble close at hand
C#m A G# C#m
You'd better pay attention, now, 'cause I'm the Boogie Man
F#m C#m
And if you aren't shaking, there's something very wrong
C#m C#m/D# C#m/E C#m/F# A G#m C#m
'Cause this may be the last time you hear the Boogie song
[Chorus]

Oh, I’m the Oogie Boogie Man
[Verse 2]
C#m A G#
Well, if I'm feelin' antsy and I've nothin' much to do

I might just cook a special batch of snake and spider stew
F#m C#m
And don't ya know the one thing that would make it work so nice?

A roly-poly Sandy Claws to add a little spice (oh)

Oh, I’m the Oogie Boogie Man
[Bridge 1]

Release me now or you must face the dire consequences
N.C.
The children are expecting me, so please, come to your senses
Em C B
You're joking, you're joking, I can't believe my ears
Em C B
Would someone shut this fella up? I'm drowning in my tears
Am F E
It's funny, I'm laughing, you really are too much
N.C
And now, with your permission, I'm going to do my stuff
What are you going to do? I'm going to do the best I can (Hit it)
[Verse 3]
Bb Ebm Cb Bb
Oh, the sound of rolling dice to me is music in the air
Ebm Cb Bb Ebm
'Cause I'm a gamblin' Boogie Man, although I don't play fair
Abm Ebm
It's much more fun, I must confess, when lives are on the line
Ebm Ebm/F Ebm/Gb Ebm/Ab Cb Bb Ebm
Not mine, of course, but yours, oh boy, now that'd be just fine
[Ending]
Em C B
Release me fast, or you'll have to answer for this heinous act
F#m D C#
Oh brother, you're something, you put me in a spin
F#m D C#
You aren't comprehending the position that you're in
Bm G F#
It's hopeless, you're finished, you haven't got prayer
Em C B Em Em/B
'Cause I'm Mr. Oogie Boogie, and you ain't going nowhere
B Em
I’m the Oogie Boogie Man
B Em
The Oogie Boogie Man
B B7 Em
The Oogie Boogie Man (boo!)
