Song by Villagers<br /><br>

HERALD:<br>

Make way! Make way!<br>

<br>

(spoken)<br>

Make way for the funeral procession of Doctor Victor von Frankenstein, maker of monsters!<br>

<br>

ALL (sung):<br>

Listen to our tale of woe,<br>

A story we must tell,<br>

What happened in that castle,<br>

Made our lives a living Hell!<br>

<br>

A mad man who was crazy<br>

Brought a dead man back to life,<br>

Who hurt and lamed,<br>

And killed and maimed,<br>

Our town was torn with strife!<br>

<br>

WOMEN:<br>

But now we're not afraid no more,<br>

We see a brighter day.<br>

<br>

ALL:<br>

He's laid to rest,<br>

We're truly blessed,<br>

And this is what we say . . .<br>

<br>

Things are swell now,<br>

Ring that bell now<br>

We're in Heaven,<br>

No more Hell now<br>

<br>

Now the doctor's dead, goodbye to dread<br>

We're the happiest town in town!<br>

<br>

We're all smiles now, <br>

Lose that frown now<br>

No more monsters get us down now<br>

Now the doctor's passed<br>

We're free at last<br>

We're the happiest town in town!<br>

<br>

KEMP (spoken):<br>

Hold the happiness!<br>

<br>

VARIOUS VILLAGERS:<br>

Kemp! Kemp! It's Inspector Kemp! It's Kemp!<br>

<br>

WOMAN VILLAGER #1:<br>

Hold the happiness? Why, Inspector Kemp?<br>

<br>

KEMP:<br>

Because as long as a Frankenstein lives, our village is in danger!<br>

<br>

MALE VILLAGER #1:<br>

But, Inspector, the Baron is dead. And he was the last of the Frankensteins!<br>

<br>

KEMP:<br>

No!<br>

<br>

VILLAGERS:<br>

No?<br>

<br>

KEMP:<br>

One lives!<br>

A grandson!<br>

<br>

ZIGGY:<br>

Who is he?<br>

<br>

HERALD:<br>

What does he do?<br>

<br>

KEMP:<br>

He's a professor, the Dean of Anatomy at New York's most famous institute of higher learning, the Johns, Miriam, and Anthony<br>

Hopkins School of Medicine! As long as this Young Frankenstein walks the earth, we will never be safe<br>

<br>

ZIGGY:<br>

I may be the village idiot, but I ask you, what are the chances of a New York doctor ever coming to Transylvania?<br>

<br>

ALL:<br>

None! Yeah!<br>

<br>

(sung)<br>

On this happy day we say amen<br>

We have wanted this<br>

Since God knows when<br>

<br>

ZIGGY:<br>

No more Frankenstein<br>

<br>

ALL:<br>

You can say that again<br>

<br>

ZIGGY:<br>

No more Frankenstein<br>

<br>

ALL:<br>

We're the happiest town in town<br>

No more Frankenstein<br>

<br>

ZIGGY:<br>

No more Frankenstein<br>

<br>

WOMEN:<br>

No more Frankenstein<br>

<br>

ZIGGY:<br>

No more Frankenstein<br>

<br>

WOMEN:<br>

No more Frankenstein<br>

<br>

ZIGGY:<br>

No more Frankenstein<br>

<br>

WOMEN:<br>

No more Frankenstein<br>

<br>

ZIGGY:<br>

No more Frankenstein<br>

<br>

ZIGGY AND WOMEN:<br>

Frankenstein . . . Frankenstein<br>

Frankenstein . . . Frankenstein<br>

<br>

Frankenstein, Frankenstein . . .<br>

<br>
