Hey, mad scientist,

Do you remember

Of course I do.

You do?!
Oh, great!

Today is the day
that I make my maddest,

Craziest, most brilliant

(Mad scientist laugh)

Oh...

Well, what creation
is that?

I can't tell you that,

It's a secret.

* I'm a mad scientist

* There are a lot of crazy
things that I can do *

* I got a secret

* And I won't tell you!

* I'm a mad scientist

* Or I can give you one
to make you ten feet tall *

* But could you give me
your secret? *

* No, not at all

* I got a secret

* I'm gonna keep it

* I got a secret

* And I won't tell you

Mad scientist,

Don't worry,
austin,

You'll find out
soon enough.

Come, let's go
to my laboratory.

Where there are
bubbling beakers,

Strange machines

And lightning flashing.

Ah, my laboratory!

(Lightning crashes)

(Mad scientist laugh)

This is where I will make
my most brilliant creation.

Um, what is it?

Nice try, austin.

It's still a secret.

* The maddest mad scientist
ever is me, *

* And my greatest creation
is going to be *

* A secret so big

* You're gonna dance
with glee! *

* So what's the secret!

* You gotta wait and see

* I got a secret
and I won't tell you! *

* She's got a secret
she wants to keep it *

* I got a secret
and I won't tell you *

* I got bubbling beakers,

* Jars of brains,

* Lightning flashing
through the window pane *

* I got bunsen burners,
and electric ray *

* And I got a secret
that'll blow you away *

* She's got a secret
she wants to keep it *

* I got a secret
and I won't tell you! *

* She's got a secret
she wants to keep it *

* I got a secret
and I won't tell you! *

Austin, please
bring me a beaker

From the table
over there.

Yes, mad scientist.

Do you wanna know
what my secret is?

Well, I'm planning a surprise
birthday party for austin!

I just need to get him
out of the laboratory

So I can get
the party ready.

(Door opens)
oh, here he comes.

Whatever you do,

Don't tell austin
about the party.

Here's your beaker,
mad scientist.

Good, good, good.

Now austin,

I need to send you out
on a mission.

A mission?
Today?

But it's my birth-

Austin!
This is very important.

Yes, mad scientist.

I need you
to go find three...

Monsters!
(Lightning crashes)

First,
go to the pyramid

And find the mummy king.

Second,
go to the forest

And find the werewolf.

And third,
go to the castle

And find the vampire.

And then you must
bring all three monsters

Back here
to my laboratory.

(Mad scientist laugh)
(lightning crashes)

Yes, mad scientist.

And make sure that you
give each monster

One of these
secret letters.

Yes, mad scientist.

But, you know,
today is my birth-

No time to talk now.

But i-

You have
to hurry along

And go get those
monsters!

Yes,
mad scientist, tasha.

He is going to be
so surprised.

(Sad sigh)

This is the worst
birthday ever.

Hello?
Mummy king?

Anyone home?

It's a good thing I can
read hieroglyphics.

It says,

"Warning: big monster
mummy king up ahead.

Go no further!"

Well,
I have to go further.

Okay, but...

"Whatever you do,
do not step on the x."

Hm, I wonder
what that means?

(Floor creaks)

Uh-oh.

(Crashing impact)
(austin yelps)

I better not step
on any more x's.

Oh, brother.

This is just what I need
on my birthday.

(Floor creaks)

(Leaping grunt)

Whoa!

Whoa!

(Crashing through the floor)

(Grunts)

(Leaping efforts)

Oof!

(Creaking)

(Big impact)

(Crashing)

Phew!

Hello?

Anybody home?

(Muffled moans)

Mummy king,
is that you?

(Muffled moans)

Tyrone:
no one's home.
Go away!

Yikes!

Oh brother.
Mummy king...

Don't come any closer!

I'm scared of you!

* When there's knocking
on my door *

* Or sounds I haven't
heard before *

* I start to shake
and want to say *

* I'm not home,
so go away *

* Please don't take it
personally *

* But I am scared
of you *

* I'm really scared
of you *

* I'm not only scared
of you *

* I'm scared of everything
else too *

* Spiders fill me up
with fright *

* And gophers keep me up
at night *

* So, please don't take it
personally *

* But I am scared
of you *

* I'm really scared
of you *

* Monsters make me quake
with fear *

* And I think there's
a monster here! *

* A monster shadow
on the wall *

* And a monster face -
ahh! *

* In the hall!

* Please don't take it
personally *

* But I am scared
of you *

* I'm really scared
of you *

* I'm oh so scared of you

* And everything else too

Oh brother.

(Knocks on tomb)

Excuse me,
but I am not a monster.

Tyrone:
you're not?

Huh. I guess you don't
look like a monster.

Why are you here?

Mad scientist tasha asked me
to give you this letter.

Mm? I've never gotten
a letter before!

Tasha: (reading)
"dear mummy king tyrone.

If you're not too
wrapped up...

(Chuckles)

Please come to a surprise
birthday party for austin.

Just follow him back
to my laboratory.

But it's a secret,
so don't tell austin!"

(Chuckles)

So, uh, what did
the letter say?

Sorry,
it's a secret.

(Sighs)
oh, brother.

Well, what are
we waiting for?

Let's get going!

Tyrone:
(moans)

This isn't the laboratory.

Austin:
we just need
to make a quick stop

And pick up the werewolf.

Tyrone:
werewolf?!

(Howling)

Tyrone:
yikes!

Austin:
oh, brother.

Would you stop
being so scared?

(Scared moans)

Hmm. This looks like
some kind of message.

Well, it's a good thing
I read wolf!

It says...

"Warning!
Go no further!"

(Scared yelp)

But we have
to go further.

(Scared moans)

"Okay,
but watch out."

Hey?!

Whoa!

(Laughs)

Huh?
Where did he go?

Tyrone:
weeee! Whoaaaa!

Whoaaa!

We don't have time
for this.

How about this?

Tyrone:
whoaaa!

Tree:
(laughs)

Just as I thought -

A ticklish tree.

Tyrone and tree:
(laugh)

Tyrone:
woah! Weeee!

Oof!

Now, come on.

And stay away
from the trees.

Is that the w-w-w-werewolf?

(Howls)

Yup.

Uniqua:
(howls)

Austin:
excuse me,
werewolf...

(Yelps)

(Scared whimpering)

Oh, brother.

(Whimpering)

Uh... Werewolf?

Are you
a m-monster?

No!
I'm just austin,

Assistant to the mad
scientist.

Oh...
Well who's that?

Austin:
that's just my friend,
the mummy king.

Uniqua:
mummy king?!

You're a monster!

Tyrone:
so are you!

Uniqua:
aaahhhh!

Tyrone:
aaahhhh!

* Whenever monsters
come around *

* That's when I will
not be found *

* When a mummy
comes my way *

* I will quickly run away *

* Please don't take it
personally *

* But I am scared
of you *

* I'm really scared
of you *

* I am scared of you,
as well *

* See me shaking,
can't you tell? *

* Werewolves make me
want to hide *

* Lock the doors
and stay inside *

* Please don't take it
personally *

* But I am scared
of you *

* I'm really scared
of you *

Oh, brother.

Come on guys,
you're both not scary!

* Mummies stomp

* And mummies stare

* Werewolves have
that scary hair *

* Mummies like
to moan at night *

* Werewolves like
to bark and bite *

Both:
* please don't take it
personally *

* But I am scared
of you *

* I'm really scared
of you *

* I'm oh so scared
of you *

* And everything else too *

Yeah!

(Laughing)

Austin:
look, mummy king,

Does that werewolf
look scary to you?

Hmm...

I guess not.

Austin:
and werewolf,

Does the mummy king
look scary to you?

Not really.

See, I told you.

There's nothing
to be afraid of.

Now werewolf,

I have brought you
a secret letter

From the mad scientist.

Arrr?

I've never gotten
a secret letter before!

Tasha: (reading)
"dear werewolf uniqua,

Please come to my laboratory

For a surprise birthday party
for austin.

It'll be a howl!"

(Chuckles)

Tasha:
"but it's a secret,

So don't tell austin!"

Uniqua:
(mad scientist laugh)

So, uh, what does
the letter say?

I can't tell you,
it's a secret.

Come on,
let's get going!

Tyrone and uniqua:
(giggle)

This doesn't look like
a laboratory to me.

It isn't.

First we need to stop
at the vampire's tower.

Uniqua and tyrone:
vampire?!

(Uniqua howls in fear)
(tyrone moans in fear)

Oh, brother.

Don't worry, I'm sure
he's not scary.

Come on.

It's spooky in here.

It certainly is.

Austin:
there's a sign.

It's a very good thing
I read vampire.

It says...

(Reading)
"warning: do not
go up the stairs!"

Tyrone:
sounds good to me.

Uniqua:
yup!

Nice try, monsters.
Now come on.

(Scared howls)

(Scared moans)

Austin: (reading)
"okay, you asked for it."

(In unison)
asked for what?

(Rumbling)

Run!!!

Jump!

(Panting)

Uniqua:
hey, that was fun!

Let's do it again!

Or let's not.

Austin:
come on, I see a light
coming from that room.

Hello?

Vampire?

Anybody home.

Guess not.
I don't see him.

And I don't see him eith-

(Startled gasp)

Ahhh, monsters!

(Scared howls and moans)

I'm scared of you!

(In unison)
we're scared of you!

Both:
oomph!

(Scared howls and moans)

Austin:
hey, come back here!

**

* I'm scared of dogs,
I'm scared of cats *

* But I'm super duper
scared of bats *

* With their little
batty wings *

* They're creepy crawly
batty things *

* Please don't take it
personally *

* I'm still scared
of you *

* I'm really scared
of you *

* I don't like
to be afraid *

* I'd rather have
some lemonade *

* But when you flap
around and shriek *

* I cannot even
take a peek *

* Please don't take it
personally *

* But I am scared
of you *

* I'm really scared
of you *

Where is everybody?

* Late at night
when I'm in bed *

* I'll tell you
what I really dread *

* Werewolves,
mummies, porcupines, *

* Ghosts and ghouls
of every kind *

* Please don't take it
personally *

* But I am scared
of you *

* I'm really scared
of you *

of you *

* And everything else too *
