Lyrics Danny Elfman

Kidnap The Sandy Claws

Kidnap Mr. Sandy Claws

I wanna do it

Let's draw straws

Jack said, "We should work together"

Three of a kind

Birds of a feather

Now and forever

Wheeee

(La, la, la

La, la, la)

Kidnap the Sandy Claws

Lock him up real tight

Throw away the key and then

Turn off all the lights

First, we're goin' to set some bait

Inside a nasty trap and wait

When he comes a-sniffing we will

Snap the trap and close the gate

Wait, I've got a better plan

To catch this big red lobster man

Let's pop him in a boiling pot

And when he's done we'll butter him up

Kidnap the Sandy Claws

Throw him in a box

Bury him for ninety years

Then see if he talks

Then Mr. Oogie Boogie man

Can take the whole thing over then

He'II be so pleased, I do declare

That he will cook him rare, wheee

I say that we take a cannon, aim it at his door

And then knock three times

And when he answers

Sandy Claws will be no more

Yes you're so stupid, think now

If we blow him up to smithereens

We may lose some pieces

And then Jack will beat us black and green

Kidnap the Sandy Claws

Tie him in a bag

Throw him in the ocean

Then, see if he is sad

Because Mr. Oogie Boogie

Is the meanest guy around

If I were on his boogie list

I'd get out of town

He'II be so pleased by our success

That he'll reward us too, I bet

Perhaps he'll make his special brew

Of snake and spider stew

We're his little henchmen and

We take our job with pride

We do our best to please him

And stay on his good side

I wish my cohorts weren't so dumb

I'm not the dumb one

You're no fun

Shut up

Make me

I've got something, listen now

This one is real good, you'll see

We'II send a present to his door

Upon there'll be a note to read

Now, in the box we'll wait and hide

Until' his curiosity

Entices him to look inside

And then we'll have him

One, two, three

Kidnap the Sandy Claws

Beat him with a stick

Lock him up for ninety years, see what

Makes him tick

Kidnap the Sandy Claws

Chop him into bits

Mr. Oogie Boogie

Is sure to get his kicks

Kidnap the sandy claws

See what we will see

Lock him in a cage

And then throw away the key
