Musty Moldy Melvin
words and music by Tim Noah © 1985

Musty Moldy Melvin
Moseyed out of the moss
His beard and his eyebrows
And his hair were green
He was musty and rusty
And crusty and dusty
He must’ve been
The mustiest Melvin
I’ve ever seen

Then Greasy Grimy Gertie
Gurgled out of the gravy
That’s where she likes to go
To get herself clean
She was greasy and grimy
And slippery and slimy
She must’ve been
The greasiest Gertie
I’ve ever seen

Then Musty Moldy Melvin
Did the hoochie-koochie-koo
And Greasy Grimy Gertie
Did the boogie boo
They danced all night
In the gurgly-gloppy-goo
It was a sight to see

Then all kinds of creepy critters
Creeped out of the creek
They took me by surprise
They made me wanna scream
They were creepy and crude
And tasteless and rude
They must have been the creppiest critters
I’ve ever seen

Then Musty Moldy Melvin
Did the hoochie-koochie-koo
And Greasy Grimy Gertie
Did the boogie boo
And the creepy little critters
In the gurgly-gloppy-goo
Wanted to dance with me
