Misfits é uma banda de "Horror Punk" de New Jersey, formada em 1977. O nome da banda foi tirado do último filme de Marilyn Monroe. Consta na contra capa de seu primeiro album de agradecimento ao cast de filmagens. Seus integrantes eram Glenn Danzig nos vocais e orgão (teclado), Jerry Caiafa no baixo e Manny na bateria, entrando mais tarde o irmão caçula de Caiafa na guitarra. O primeiro trabalho, feito pela Blank Records não refletia as características de raiva e revolta da maioria dos discos de punk

G#5 I was working in the lab late on night F5 When my eyes beheld an eerie sight C#5 My monster, from its slab, began to rise D#5 And suddenly to my surprise
Chorus:
G#5 He did the Mash, he did the Monster Mash F5 The Monster Mash, and it's a graveyard smash C#5 He did the Mash, and it caught in a flash D#5 He did the Mash, he did the Monster Mash
Verse 2: play like other verse
From my laboratory in the castle east To the master bedroom, where the vampires feast The ghouls all came from their humble abodes To get a jolt from my electrodes
Chorus: play like other chorus
They did the Mash, they did the Monster Mash The Monster Mash, it was a graveyard smash They did the Mash, they caught on in a flash They did the Mash, they did the Monster Mash
Interlude:
C#5 The zombies were having fun D#5 The party had just begun C#5 The guests included Wolfman D#5(stop) Dracula, and his son
Verse 3: play like before
The scene was rocking, all were digging the sound Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds The Coffin Bangers were about to arrive With their vocal group, The Crypt Keeper Five
Play the chorus
Verse 4:
G#5 Now everything is cool, Drac's a part of the band F5 My Monster Mash is the hit of the land C#5 For you, the living, this Mash was meant, too D#5 (stop) When you get to my door, tell them Only sent you
Play the chorus
