Oh,

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 nowlf
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'
Then there's something very wrong'
Cause this may be the last time now you hearthe boogie song, ohhh

Or you must face the dire consequences
The children are expecting me
So please, come to your senses

Would someone shut this fella up

And now, with your permission
I'm going to do my stuff

Musical interlude)
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, oldboy
Now that'd be just fine
SANTARelease me fast or you will have to
Answer for this heinous act
OOGIE
BOOGIEOh, brother, you're something
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 going nowhere
