The Happiest Town in Town Lyrics – Villagers

The Happiest Town in Town Text

---

HERALD:
Make way! Make way!

(spoken)
Make way for the funeral procession of Doctor Victor von Frankenstein, maker of monsters!

ALL (sung):
Listen to our tale of woe,
A story we must tell,
What happened in that castle,
Made our lives a living Hell!

A mad man who was crazy
Brought a dead man back to life,
Who hurt and lamed,
And killed and maimed,
Our town was torn with strife!

WOMEN:
But now we're not afraid no more,
We see a brighter day.

ALL:
He's laid to rest,
We're truly blessed,
And this is what we say . . .

Things are swell now,
Ring that bell now
We're in Heaven,
No more Hell now

Now the doctor's dead, goodbye to dread
We're the happiest town in town!

We're all smiles now,
Lose that frown now
No more monsters get us down now
Now the doctor's passed
We're free at last
We're the happiest town in town!

KEMP (spoken):
Hold the happiness!

VARIOUS VILLAGERS:
Kemp! Kemp! It's Inspector Kemp! It's Kemp!

WOMAN VILLAGER #1:
Hold the happiness? Why, Inspector Kemp?

KEMP:
Because as long as a Frankenstein lives, our village is in danger!

MALE VILLAGER #1:
But, Inspector, the Baron is dead. And he was the last of the Frankensteins!

KEMP:
No!

VILLAGERS:
No?

KEMP:
One lives!
A grandson!

ZIGGY:
Who is he?

HERALD:
What does he do?

KEMP:
He's a professor, the Dean of Anatomy at New York's most famous institute of higher learning, the Johns, Miriam, and Anthony
Hopkins School of Medicine! As long as this Young Frankenstein walks the earth, we will never be safe

ZIGGY:
I may be the village idiot, but I ask you, what are the chances of a New York doctor ever coming to Transylvania?

ALL:
None! Yeah!

(sung)
On this happy day we say amen
We have wanted this
Since God knows when

ZIGGY:
No more Frankenstein

ALL:
You can say that again

ZIGGY:
No more Frankenstein

ALL:
We're the happiest town in town
No more Frankenstein

ZIGGY:
No more Frankenstein

WOMEN:
No more Frankenstein

ZIGGY:
No more Frankenstein

WOMEN:
No more Frankenstein

ZIGGY:
No more Frankenstein

WOMEN:
No more Frankenstein

ZIGGY:
No more Frankenstein

ZIGGY AND WOMEN:
Frankenstein . . . Frankenstein
Frankenstein . . . Frankenstein

Frankenstein, Frankenstein . . .
