Creature With The Atom Brain

Creature with the atom brain

Creature with the atom brain

Why is he acting so strange

Do you think he's one of them?

Threw the doll right down

Ripped it's guts off

And threw it on the ground

Creature with the atom brain

Creature with the atom brain

"I told you I'd come back! Remember Buchanan?"

"But you're not Buchanan!"

"I don't look like him, but I am him.

Don't you recognize the voice Jim?

I promised to see you die, and I will!"

"Hey boss let us in! Boss man, let us in that door!"

"Get in the automobile! Get in the automobile! The automobile!"

No one stitches like that

No one stitches like that

Creature with the atom brain

Creature with the atom brain

VOICEOVER:

"Today's big story centers around the killing

Of District Attorney McGraw, whose body was

Found in his garage, murdered.

Dr. Walker is under the impression that these crimes

Were being perpetrated by dead men charged with atom

Rays, which gives them superhuman strength and makes

Them impervious to bullets.

Well, if you want to believe that story you can."

Creature with the atom brain

Creature with the atom brain

Why is he acting so strange

Do you think he's one of them?

Creature with the atom brain
