The Blob
Five Blobs The Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And leaps and glides and slides
Across the floor
Right through the door
And all around the wall
A splotch, a blotch
Be careful of The Blob
Beware of The Blob, it creeps
And leaps and glides and slides
Across the floor
Right through the door
And all around the wall
A splotch, a blotch
Be careful of The Blob
Beware of The Blob, it creeps
And leaps and glides and slides
Across the floor
Right through the door
And all around the wall
A splotch, a blotch
Be careful of The Blob
Beware of The Blob, it creeps
And leaps and glides and slides
Across the floor
Right through the door
And all around the wall
A splotch, a blotch
Be careful of The Blob
The song "The Blob" by the Five Blobs is a direct reference to the 1958 science fiction film of the same name. The opening line, "Beware of The Blob, it creeps and leaps and glides and slides across the floor" is a description of the titular creature as it moves quickly and erratically across surfaces. The Blob itself is a gelatinous mass that grows as it consumes everything in its path, including humans. The line "right through the door and all around the wall" is a warning that the Blob can enter any space through small openings and is difficult to contain.
The repetition of the warning throughout the song emphasizes the dangerous nature of the Blob and the need for caution. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the Blob as it moves through the world, leaving destruction in its wake. The final line, "Be careful of The Blob" serves as a reminder to the listener to remain vigilant against the threat of the creature.
Overall, "The Blob" is a fun and catchy song that captures the spirit of the classic science fiction movie. The lyrics are simple but effective in conveying the terror that the Blob represents.

Who knew that a 50s horror movie would inspire such a jam.

For a novelty song it's very well written with a great melody . The singing is perfect, too. I love it.
@amrak63
Thanks to Dr. Demento for introducing me to this song roughly 44 years ago.

R.I.P., Burt Bacharach (1928-2023.) This was one of Burt's first co-composed songs with Mack David to make the top 100. Burt would eventually compose most of his hit songs with Mack's brother Hal David.

@kingofpointless
It took a real musical genius to make a potentially annoying novelty song such a genuinely enjoyable bop instead. Thanks for this one as well Burt!
