Lyrics
On the twenty-first day of the month of September
In an early year of a decade not too long before our own
The human race suddenly encountered a deadly threat
To it's very existence
And this terrifying enemy surfaced
As such enemies often do
In the seemly most innocent and unlikely of places
Little shop, little shop of horrors
Little shop, little shop of terror
Call the cop
Little shop of horrors
No, uh uh, oh no
Little shop, little shop of horrors
Bop-sha-bop
Little shop of terror
Watch 'em drop
Little shop of horrors
No, uh, uh, oh no
(Shing-a-ling, shing, shing-a-ling-ling)
What a freaky thing to be happening
Look out! Look out!
Look out! Look out!
(Shing-a-ling, shing, shing-a-ling-ling)
Feel the sturm and drang in the air
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Sha-la-la-la-bop, stop
Right where you are, don't you move a thing
You better
You better, telling you you better
Tell your mama
Somethings gonna get her
She better
Everybody better beware
Oh, here it comes, baby
Tell the bombs , baby
Uh, uh, oh no
Oh, hit the dirt, baby
Better learn, baby
Uh, uh, oh no
Uh, uh, oh no
(Ally-oop, shoop-shoop-shoop-soup)
Haul it off in the stoop, child
I'm warning you
Look out! Look out!
Look out! Look out!
Run away
Child, you're gonna pay if you fail
Yeah, yeah
Look around, 'round
Somethings coming down, down the street
For you!
You betcha
You betcha
Betcha your butt, you betcha
Best believe it
Something's gonna get you
You betcha
Better watch your back
And your tail
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Come-a-come-a-come-a
Little shop, little shop of horrors
Bop-sha-bop
You'll never stop the terror
Little shop
Little shop of horrors
No, uh uh, oh no
No, no, oh no
Oh, oh, oh no
