Lyrics
(Am)La, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, (Fm)la.
(Am)La, la, la, la, la, la.
(F)La, la, (E)la, la, (Am)la.
Kidnap the Sandy Claws, lock him up real (Fm)tight.
(Am)Throw away the key and then (F)turn off (E)all the (Am)lights.
First we're going to set some bait inside a nasty trap and (E)wait.
(Am)When he comes (Fm)asniffing, we will (Am)snap the trap and (E)close the (Am)gate.
Wait! I've got a better plan to catch this big red lobster man.
Let's pop him in a (Fm)boiling pot and (Am)when he's done we'll (E)butter him (Am)up!
Kidnap the Sandy Claws, throw him in a (Fm)box.
(Am)Bury him for ninety years, (F)then see (E)if he (Am)(Em)talks.
(Am)Then (Em)Mister Oogie Boogie Man
(Em)can take the whole thing over then.
(Am)He'll (Em)be so pleased, I do declare,
(Em)that (B)he will cook him rare!
(Em)I say that we take a cannon,
aim it at his door, and (B)then (Em)knock three times,
and (Cm)when he answers, (Em)Sandy Claws will be no more.
You're so stupid, think now.
If we blow him up to smithereens,
we may lose some (Cm)pieces and then (Em)Jack will beat us black and green.
(Am)Kidnap the Sandy Claws, tie him in a (Fm)bag.
(Am)Throw him in the ocean, then (F)see if (E)he is (Am)sad.
Because (E7)Mister Oogie (Am)Boogie is the (E7)meanest guy (Am)around.
If (Bb)I were on his Boogie list,
(E)I'd get out of town!
(Dm)He'll (Am)be so pleased by our success
(Am)that he'll reward us too, I'll bet.
(Dm)(Am)Perhaps he'll make his special brew
(E)of snake and spider stew.
(Am)We're his little henchmen and we take our job with (E)pride.
We (Am)do our best to (Bdim)please him and (Am)stay on his good side.
I (Dm)wish my cohorts weren't so dumb.
I'm (Am)not the dumb one!
You're no fun.
(B)Shut up!
Make me!
(F)see what (E)makes him (Am)tick!
Kidnap the Sanddy Claws, chop him into (Fm)bits.
