Rose and the Arrangement - The Cockroach That Ate Cincinnati Lyrics

Ah-ah Don't touch that dial! I must offer to you a confession I like movies that give me a fright (AAAAAAAAAA!!!!) If the subject is horror I've got to see more or I won't be contented all night You may call it my ghoulish obsession It's a subject on which I get chatty But the worst one it seems Haunting all of my dreams Was the cockroach that ate Cincinnati I've seen ghouls and hobgoblins and witches And some moth-eaten werewolves with fangs (owooo!) There were creatures that chattered And others that clattered And Japanese monsters with bangs (Ha-so!) Frankenstein gives me the shakes And Count Dracula's driving me batty But they're not on a par with the worst one by far The cockroach that ate Cincinnati Oh he must have needed a seltzer It's amazing how much he got down For lunch he'd just chew up a suburb or two And for dinner he at the whole town (burp!) Willard just sent me out laughing I thought Ben looked a little bit ratty But they're not half as bad As the worst scare I've had "The Cockroach That Ate Cincinnati" Oh my heart nearly stopped He will never be topped The cockroach that ate Cincinnati... Olè! (Olè? That's dumb!) Rose and the Arrangement Lyrics The Cockroach That Ate Cincinnati Lyrics
