Oogie Boogie's Song

Oogie Boogie's Song is a song from The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Lyrics
Oogie Boogie: Well, well, well, what have we here? Sandy Claws, huh? Ooh, I'm really scared! So you're the one everybody's talkin' about? Ha, ha, ha, ha!

You're jokin', you're jokin'! I can't believe my eyes! You're jokin' me, you gotta be, This can't be the right guy!

He's ancient, he's ugly; I don't know which is worse! I might just split a seam now If I don't die laughing first.

When Mr. Oogie Boogie says There's trouble close at hand, You'd better pay attention now 'Cause I'm the Boogie Man!

And if you aren't shakin', There's something very wrong! 'Cause this may be the last time You hear the Boogie Song!

Woah

Skeletons: Woah

Oogie Boogie: Woah

Skeletons: Woah

Oogie Boogie: Woah

Bats: Woah

Oogie Boogie and Chorus: I'm (he's) the Oogie Boogie Man!

Santa: Release me now or you must face The dire consequences The children are expecting me So please, come to your senses

Oogie Boogie: You're jokin', you're jokin'! I can't believe my ears! Would someone shut this fella up? I'm drownin' in my tears!

It's funny, I'm laughing; You really are too much. And now, with your permission, I'm going to do my stuff...

Santa: What are you going to do?

Oogie Boogie: I'm going to do the best I can.

Oh, the sound of rollin' dice To me is music in the air 'Cause I'm a gamblin' Boogie Man Although I don't play fair.

It's much more fun, I must confess When lives are on the line Not mine, of course but yours, old boy, Now that'd be just fine.

Santa: Release me fast or you'll have to answer for this heinous act!

Oogie Boogie: Oh brother, you're somethin'! You put me in a spin! You aren't comprehending The position that you're in.

It's hopeless, you're finished You haven't got a prayer 'Cause I'm Mr. Oogie Boogie, And you ain't goin' nowhere!
