Hoo! Oooooh! Shadows on the mountain, and the night begins to fall Gather up the children, 'fore the darkness takes us all. Tribe has come together, standin' naked against the night Twenty feet from the fire, the evil waits with zombie eyes. Eye-eye-eye eye of the Zombie! Eye-eye-eye eye of the Zombie! Oh! Sneakin' through the long grass on leopard feet silently A beast already dead comes to join the dance on the zombie. Ooh! Time has come again - again the moment of truth The terror is at hand, and there's nothin' you can do. Oh! Hoo! Aaa-aah! Hoo! Aaa-aaa-aaaah! From out of nowhere he's there, flashing hideous teeth Panic in the crowd, helter-skelter, we're brought to our knees. Back to the darkness, back on the mountain he stands You can't fight a shadow, you can't kill a dead man.
