[JiPé nous a fait découvrir Bob McFadden,

I'm a mummy
I scare people
Watch what happens when I walk up to somebody
I'm a mummy
(Loud scream)

I was born one thousand nine hundred and fity-nine years ago
My daddy was a mummy, too
Watch what happens when I walk up to somebody
I'm a mummy
(Loud scream)

I don't try to scare people
I really came back to life to buy
A copy of "Kookie, Kookie Lend Me Your Comb"
But people run from me
Watch what happens when I walk up to somebody
I'm a mummy
(Loud scream)

I wish there was somebody somewhere who wasn't afraid of me
Oh Well
Watch what happens when I walk up to somebody
I'm a mummy
That's cool
I'm a mummy
You mean you're a motha'
No, I'm a mummy
I'm a beatnik
People are afraid of me
Yeah, I'm hip
I was born one thousand nine hundred and fifty-nine years ago
Oh, yeah, like that's a long gig
Where can I buy a copy of "Kookie, Kookie Lend Me Your Comb" ?
Oooh, man, I don't dig that trash
You know; Brubeck, Sherwin, Modern Jazz Quartet ?
I'm a mummy
Man, you got a warped groove
Aren't you afraid of me ? aren't you gonna scream ?
Oh, yeah, like "help."
