Monster Squad
(Theme from The Monster Squad)
by: Michael Sembello
In a hundred years, in the darkest night
the forces of evil come out to fight
the amulet, they must destroy
or spend forever in the darkest void
who can stop their deadly might?
who will stand up for the right?
from the mouth of babes comes dynamite
the monster squad is gonna groove tonight!
First came Dracula, now the Wolf Man too
the mummy and the Gill Man swimming in the pool
we need silver bullets, we need wooden stakes
normal stuff won't stop them cause they live on hate
speak some magic words from a virgin's lips
baby that'll shake 'em, make 'em slip and trip
there's no turning back, gotta fight the fight
yeah the monster squad is gonna jam tonight!
monster squad
(we're the monster squad!)
and the forces of evil
better run and hide
monster squad
(we're the monster squad!)
and the forces of evil
best beware of the monster squad
Momma dear can't help us, dad don't understand
no one would believe it, put it in our hands
gotta stop those creatures, send them back to hell
or there's no tomorrow, no saved by the bell
there's no place to run, nowhere to hide
now it's time to see what you got inside
no evil will escape my sight
yeah the monster squad is gonna jam tonight!
This ain't Halloween or some phony deal
they be playin' for keeps, they be playin' for real!
for darkness spread all across the land
we're the only ones left to make a stand
we don't wanna hang with the walking dead
so we gotta kick some monster butt instead!
and you'll never see such a ghastly sight
when the monster squad saves the world tonight!
monster squad
(we're the monster squad!)
and the forces of evil
better run and hide

I would urge you to buy the song, but it's not available for sale :(
In the meantime, here's the version I ripped from the movie. Sorry the sound quality isn't better.
Hopefully someday it'll get an official release.
