EV Monster Mash

by Lee Hart

I was working in the lab, late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
I got in my car, to go out for a bite
But I turned the key, and to my delight

refrain (It's an EV)... It's now my new EV
(It's an EV)... It runs electrically
(It's an EV)... It's now pollution free
(It's an EV)... They'll sell no gas to me!

Once it was a Rabbit, old and grey
But my trusty tools stripped its engine bay
In its place, I installed a big ADC
From a Ebay bargain Igor happened to see

refrain

When the batteries died, I just used my head
They say I'm good at bringing life to the dead
And now I can charge as fast as I like
By arranging an appropriate lightning strike

refrain

Out from the crypt Drac's voice did ring
Seems he'd discovered some little thing
He'd picked up a cell, and took a big bite
And said, "You know, blood's an electrolyte!"

refrain

The time slips hidden underneath the seat
Tell me Igor's racing when the dragsters meet
Igor, if you want to win that dare
Let's add the knife switch from our electric chair

refrain

I can't tell you how much joy I've got
Scaring people to death in the parking lot
So, if you want to transform your car, too
Call your EV vendor and say, "Boris sent you"

Happy Halloween!

This was inspired by the 1962 #1 hit song "Monster Mash" by Bobby "Boris" Pickett and the Crypt Kickers. Imagine it being recited by a creepy voice like Boris Karloff.
