The Lyrics
...as sung by igor...
been spendin' my time
seekin' minds
ain't been found yet
outlook dim
rather grim
hope one comes along
fresh and strong
that's what i want
not a loon
or baboon
don't know that i will
but until i can find me
a brain, okay
that won't bring shame upon me
i'll be what i am
a cemetery man
cemetery man
my master, i fear
made it clear
that his monster
needs this thing
i must bring
so far i've been stumped
birth was bumped
now i'm past due
been too long
odds aren't strong
don't know that i will
but until i can find me
a brain, okay
that won't bring shame upon me
i'll be what i am
a cemetery man
cemetery man
seekin' minds
ain't been found yet
outlook dim
rather grim
hope one comes along
fresh and strong
that's what i want
not a loon
or baboon
don't know that i will
but until i can find me
a brain, okay
that won't bring shame upon me
i'll be what i am
a cemetery man
cemetery man
my master, i fear
made it clear
that his monster
needs this thing
i must bring
so far i've been stumped
birth was bumped
now i'm past due
been too long
odds aren't strong
don't know that i will
but until i can find me
a brain, okay
that won't bring shame upon me
i'll be what i am
a cemetery man
cemetery man

I'm a fan of clever Frankenstein parodies - good job, alvin!
To give this less than a five would be a grave mistake.
Igor, you impetuous fool!
thanks johnny, michael and TT
Well stitched together. Now, "It's My Body" by Les Ligor.
Nothing dead here, except the subject matter...lotta' life in this parody...
Good parody on one of my favorite subjects.
thanks john, AFW and 2eagle
You're one warped dude, Al...has anybody told you that before? ;-) Great stuff, and I love the OS. 555
I IGOR-ly wait for you to take up John's suggestion.
You did a great job digging up an old classic.
