Electric Frankenstein “Coolest Little Monster” and “It’s All Moving Faster” 1995. Frisbee Records. My two favorite Electric Frankenstein songs on one brilliant little 45 rpm record. EF’s version of “Coolest Little Monster” is the best punk Halloween song ever. “It’s All Moving Faster” is 90′s raw garage punk at its absolute finest.
“Coolest Little Monster” is a cover of John Zacherle’s (television horror host) 1960 novelty song, done in a deep almost-cartoon voice with brilliant, silly and memorable lyrics:
You’re horrid you’re ghastly and I love you true,
So here are some presents I’m sending to you…
I’ll send a small box of small pox,
A large tub of hub bub,
Your own noose for home use,
A crate full of hateful,
‘Cause you’re the coolest little monster that ever put
The spook on me…
I’ll send a lipstick of arsnic,
One urn of sunburn,
Six cups of hiccups,
A bin full of sinful,
'Cause you’re the coolest little monster that ever put
The spook on me,
Monster o'mine you haunt me all the time, I’ll be true,
I’m so in love with you loooby dooby dooby dooby…
Eight pails of hangnails,
Some pass cards for graveyards,
A werewolf that’s your wolf,
Some batwings for earrings,
Cause you’re the coolest little monster that ever put
The spook on me,
My dear you’re ravishing! wherever did you dig up that
Dress? hahahaha
Monster o'mine you haunt me all the time, I’ll be true,
I’m so in love with you loooby dooby dooby dooby…
Green hair for nightwear,
Some laprobes of earlobes,
A hat pin of bat skin,
And three scraps of kneecaps
'Cause you’re the coolest little monster that ever put
The spook on me…
My dear since I first laid my eyes on you, I can’t get
Them back in the sockets… hahahahahhaha
'Cuz you’re the coolest little monster that ever put
The spook on me
