Addams Family Cast - When You're an Addams Lyrics

Ah, the intoxicating spell of the graveyard. Once a year when the last leaf of autumn falls, we gather to honor the great
cycle life and death. Come, every member of our clan - living, dead- and undecided and let us celebrate what is to be an
Addams.
When you're an Addams
You need to have a little moonlight
When you're an Addams
You need to feel a little chill
You have to see the world in shades of gray
You have to put some poison in your day
That's the way
Gomez and Morticia:
When you're an Addams
You need to have a sense of humor
Gomez and Morticia:
When you're an Addams
You need to have a taste for death
Gomez/Morticia:
Who cares about the world outside
And what it wants from you
When you're an Addams
You do what Addams always do!
Addams Family:
When you're an Addams
You gotta have a lotta passion
Addams Family:
When you're an Addams
You need to really love your wife
Several times a day
Addams Family:
You're happy when your toes are in the mud
Fester and Grandma:
You smile a bit the moment you smell blood
AA-OOOH!!!
Addams Family:
When you're an Addams
You need to grab a bow and arrow
Addams Family:
When you're an Addams
You need a moment to explode
Just pour a potion
Flip the switch
Fester/Grandma/Wednesday/Pugsley:
And wait till things get hot
Addams Family:
When you're an Addams
You have to really stir the pot
So keep your sunshine
And keep your glee
Country music and Tennessee
Keep you laughter
And MTV
Addams Family:
And all will be all right
Give us shadows and give us gloom
Broken glass in a motel room
Something fun we can all exhume
And give it all tonight!
And on this special night, beneath our Family Tree, we summon our beloved Ancestors.
One torn asunder
Down six feet under
We get to gather here
Dead for forever
Bled from whatever
Called now to reappear
Every cadaver
Start the palaver
Once in an Addams year
Hold your decaying
Hear what we're saying
Time now to give a cheer
Line Dance!
Bunny Hop!
Do the Twist!
Rigor Mortis!
When you're an Addams
That's right!
When you're an Addams
You have a very special duty
Late night! Out with the Addams!
When you're an Addams
Male Ancestors:
With one bite
You're obligated to the clan
It's family first and family last
And family by and by
When you're an Addams
The standard answers don't apply
When you're and Addams
You do what Addams do or-
Ughhh
Die!
