Lyrics

He’s creepin’ up to getcha (no) matter whatcha do
Though you might think it couldn’t happen to you
It happened to us in Sugar Lime Blue

Long ago an evil genius came up with a plan
Born in a vial by a laboratory man
Then, one day through a government bungle
He made an escape out into the jungle
Well, he came to the place where our billy goats graze
And siphoned them off in a number of ways
Then, he came for us, corrupt and depraved
We promptly ran away
El Chupacabra

He makes a noise that’s simply terri-freakin’-fying to hear
Like the roar of a dinosaur stuck with a spear
Nails on a chalkboard and a truck grinding gears

Nobody is sure exactly what they saw
Goat beard, turkey neck, alligator jaw
Beating the band with his orangutang paws
Oh no
El Chupacabra

He’s creepin’ up to get you from his nest of lies
Duck billed, saber tooth, Narcoluptuous eyes
Jumpin’ on your head much to your kitty cat’s surprise
He has the tail of the serpent and the breath of a squatch
Bell hangin’ down from a crook in his crotch
Ringing it round, makin’ everybody watch

Long ago an evil genius came up with a plan
Grown in a vial by a laboratory man
Then one day, due to government blunder
He made is escape out into the tundra
He came to the place where our billy goats play
And siphoned them off in a number of ways
Now, I know what your thinkin’, there’ll be some confusion
No way you’re believin’ any hippie delusion
Dope smokin’, pill poppin’, toe lickin’, free thinkin’, fools in a foregone conclusion
El Chupacabra
