The scarab "Borrowed" King Tut's crown
for a night out on the town
he wanted to wear some royal glitz
to the famous Ballroom Blitz
This was going to be a helluva bash
he couldn't wait to do the monster mash
he had polished his boogie shoes
and he was ready to mooove and groove
He arrived at the party late
the bouncer wouldn't let him through the gate
he could see his friends monster mashing
as he watched his hopes were crashing
The mummy slipped open the club's back door
and soon he was boogying across the dance floor
wearing the King's crown on his head
and a shirt signed by the Grateful Dead
The zombie chicks were higher than kites
the tomb mummies were starting a fight
Cleopatra was shakin her ass
and the scarab was doing the monster masssh
Then old King Tut blew through the door
stormed right across that dance floor
snatched his crown off the scarab's head
grabbed Cleopatra and headed home to bed
The scarab was lame without his glitz
he got bounced out of the ballroom blitz
he walked home all alone
cursing Tut and his throne
He made it back to the tomb
Cleo was waiting in Tut's throne room
she said "want to be King for the night
come on babe, I'll treat you right"
She put Tut's crown on his head
then they slipped off to her bed
old King Tut slept alone that night
while Cleo held the scarab tight
Tut had dreams that gave him pleasure
about how he saved his royal treasure
he did not hear Cleo's bed crasssh
as the scarab did the monster masssh....
