This song is sung by Lock, Shock, and Barrel, also known as “Boogie’s Boys” (although one of them, Shock, is a girl). They have been tasked to kidnap Santa Claus by Jack Skellington, who is planning to have Halloween take over Christmas this year. The children somewhat misunderstand what they’re sup...
[LOCK/SHOCK/BARREL]
Kidnap Mr. Sandy Claws?
[LOCK]
I wanna do it
[BARREL]
Let's draw straws
[SHOCK]
Jack said we should work together
[BARREL]
Three of a kind
[LOCK]
Birds of a feather
[LOCK/SHOCK/BARREL]
Now and forever, whee!
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-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
[SHOCK]
First, we're going to set some bait
Inside a nasty trap and wait
When he comes a-sniffing
We will snap the trap and close the gate
[LOCK]
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
[LOCK/SHOCK/BARREL]
Kidnap the Sandy Claws, throw him in a box
Bury him for ninety years, then see if he talks
[SHOCK]
Then Mr. Oogie Boogie Man
[LOCK/SHOCK/BARREL]
Can take the whole thing over then
He'll be so pleased, I do declare
That he will cook him rare, whee!
[LOCK]
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
[SHOCK]
You're so stupid, think now
If we blow him up into smithereens
We may lose some pieces
[LOCK/SHOCK/BARREL]
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
[LOCK & SHOCK]
Because Mr. Oogie Boogie is the meanest guy around
If I were on his Boogie list, I'd get out of town
[BARREL]
He'll be so pleased by our success
That he'll reward us too, I'll bet
[LOCK/SHOCK/BARREL]
Perhaps he'll make his special brew
Of snake and spider stew, mmm
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
[SHOCK]
I wish my cohorts weren't so dumb
[BARREL]
I'm not the dumb one
[LOCK]
You're no fun
[SHOCK]
Shut up!
[LOCK]
Make me!
[SHOCK]
I've got something, listen up
This one is real good, you'll see
We'll 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 curiousity...
[LOCK/SHOCK/BARREL]
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
Kidnap the Sandy Claws was written by Danny Elfman.
