The Five Blobs - 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!

This classic theme was written by Burt Bacharach and Mack David and makes it very easy to imagine you're in a funky sixties cocktail party. Until the blob shows up and you're forced to sacrifice the women and children to it's blubbery demands before somehow managing to kill it with a gas boiler you've jerry rigged to explode. You'll never forget the hideous slobbering touch of the blob though, and years later you'll wake in terror certain you can feel it oozing up your leg.
