- Just skip at 0:40 and start to listen. Hilarious.
This is a musical based on H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos, but even if you haven't read his books this is funny.
Made by H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society.
Lyrics are copied from Stacey Greenstein's comment and I made some additional tweaks.
A Shoggoth on the roof
Sounds crazy - no, certifiably insane!
But here in our little village of Arkham, Massachusetts, you might say every one of us has a Shoggoth on the roof
And I'm not speaking of metaphorically!
It's not easy having a... malevolent shapeless monster like that, hanging over your head, but there it is!
Arkham is the home of many strange things
A big monster like that on such a pointy roof
You may ask: How does it stay up there, if it's so difficult?
That, I can tell you in one word: Tentacles!
Tentacles, tentacles! Tentacles!
Tentacles, tentacles! Tentacles!
Here in Arkham, tentacles get into everything eventually Changeless, legend-haunted Arkham, where the clustering gamble-roofs sway and sag over attics, where witches hid from the king's men in the dark olden days of the province
Well, the king is gone, but the witches are still here... and the cultists, and the monsters, and regular folks just trying not to notice We try not to think about the scariest one of all; the gigantic half-dragon, half-octopus half humanoid Great Old One himself, Cthulhu, waiting to return from his city beneath the sea!
Who day and night must slumber in R'lyeh, wave his tentacles having nasty dreams? And who has the might as master of R'lyeh, to drive humanity insane?
Cthulhu, Cthulhu! Tentacles!
Cthulhu, Cthulhu! Tentacles!
Who must bow in mirrors(?), scrape and slave all day, to raise R'lyeh, Cthulhu's way?
Who must live in ignorance until the day, they find they've read too many nasty books?
The cultists, the cultists! Tentacles!
The cultists, the cultists! Tentacles!
At nine I started growing gills and swimming in the sea
And soon I'll know the wonder of the sunken city
The Deep Ones, The Deep Ones! Tentacles!
The Deep Ones, The Deep Ones! Tentacles!
Who's always last to know, who fills the air with cries?
Whose sanity is blasted, and then who usually dies?
The victims! The victims! Tentacles!
The victims! The victims! Tentacles!
(Chorus)
We have the shoe factory, and the brick works, and the wonderful insane asylum we're all mighty proud of, but the heart of the town is it's Miskatonik University. It may not be the biggest school in New England, but there's no finer place in the world to study medieval metaphysics.
It's my honour to be its head librarian. You'll see many folks from the university as you walk through Arkham's streets, and in our small community, we've always had some special types as well...
For instance, Herbert West, the mad scientist.
"Those small-minded doctors have needlessly and irrationally delayed my supremely great work! The reanimation of dead tissue is within my grasp!"
"Herbert, your perverse experiments are the vagary of a demented maniac and cannot be allowed to continue. Your request for the use of human cadavres is completely denied!"
"I warn you, doctor Halsey, you will regret this decision".
And Randolph Carter, the writer with the weird dreams, who keeps showing up everywhere.
"I repeat to you, gentlemen, that your inquisition is fruitless. Question me forever, if you want - I do not know what has become of Harley Warren!"
"Mr. Carter, there's a telephone call for you".
And Obed Marsh, the cursed old man from nearby Innsmouth.
"What are ye lookin' at? What, ye think I'm ugly? Is that it?! I'll be showin' ye ugly!".
...
Then there are others in Arkham. Some of them live here, some of them just visit. The head of a local cult, some kind of horrible monster. I do not even want to know what that is. We normal folk just look the other way and try not to lose our minds. And among ourselves, we get along just fine.
Well, of course there are some who think that the magical Elder Sign is shaped like a star, and some who think it's shaped more like a tree... but that's all settled now. Now, we just try to-
"It's shaped like a star with a little flame inside it!"
"It's shaped like a tree - it's got branches coming off it!"
"I'm telling you, it's a star!"
"Use the star one and you'll be fighting off the Old Ones with your bare hands! It's a tree!"
Star! Tree! Star! Tree! Star! Tree! Star! Tree!
Tentacles. Like I said, you cannot live in Arkham without coping with the shoggoth on the roof. - Hudba
"Is there a correct way to worship Nyarlathotep"
"Yes, may Cthulu keep the Black Pharoah... far away from us"
A shoggoth on the roof is not insane. A fiddler on the roof, now that's insane. Unless he is to be eaten by the shog-oh he just got eaten by the shoggoth. Nevermind, all is well.
Now we got a Shoggoth on the roof playing the fiddle. Roll for Sanity.
I understand Shoggoth that thing has tentacles, but how does fiddler stay up there ?
"Tentacles get into everything at some point or another".
I lol'd.
I miss 2011
I’ve seen enough hentai to know where this is going
There's something about that statement that just sounds wrong
@@jimhuffman9434 sounds right to me ;)
Tentacles...thats wut she said...
The pipe organ makes it all sound so majestic, yet the lyrics are some of the silliest madness ever. I LOVE IT.
So do I. It's hilarious.
yup :) :)
I'm doing my best not to laugh
It’s because the pipe organ is getting its pipe organ piped by the piper
The narrator guy's voice is how I imagined all Lovecraft's main characters sound like.
Arkham and Innsmouth could be a good setting for a regular comedy show or horror show.
Depending upon your sanitys tolerance of foreign animation, impropiate cuteness and debauchery, Japan has is way ahead of you.
Azmodeus87 You mean that "Nyaruko" anime? I saw clips of it on youtube. I wasn't impressed.
well, i'm not gonna act like it wasn't a series squarely aimed at Otakus/anime-fans who knows the mythos rather than Lovecraft-fans who happens to like anime.
Hoenstly, the closest thingi can call to mind that fits your description would be Haruhi Suzumiya. Most other examples of Lovecraft are straight examples of Eldritch abominations.
Azmodeus87
WHAT!!!
Don't you dare comparing my goddess to the old ones! She's too cute and squishy, when the outer gods would find me literally squishy instead.
While Nyaruko do insulted the great Nyarlthotep a bit, it's the clostest thing to Lovecraft comedy I can think of.
Also, there's this video game "Cthulhu Save the World" that's clearly comedy, but it's a pretty hardcore JRPG game also.
MariusThePaladin You do know she actualy said that her Moe form is not her true form, and that her real visage would make people insane? She's pretty much cosplaying the entire series trough.
Ten years later, there's still a Shoggoth on the roof.
It still demands more vict....*ahem*....viewers.
Only 10 years? Such a short time for a long-lived being.
@@dubuyajay9964 Shoggoth don't move so why should I . I like it here. Not too far from Potter's field, quiet well behaved Aldrich things, plenty of interesting people? well they have gills but still what's not to love. Oh and Aldabaran is only a 5 minute byakhee ride away.. I strongly recommend moving here.
At least it’s not a dunwich horror on the roof jebadi never saw it coming poor blokes house just went flat
This song is actually a good- not to mention funny- introduction to the Cthulhu Mythos that doesn't result in going mad from the revelation.
or mayhaps, you were already mad..,
Maybe it is the RESULT of going mad.
@@michaellemmons870 maybe...
Another good introduction to the Cthulhu Mythos is the game Carrion, which is probably the only game that lets you play as a Shoggoth that had been experimented on by the Great Race of Yith.
Not sure if that's what the devs intended, but I saw a theory about it posted in the comments of one of GT's "Science of" videos and it seems plausible to me. And I really dig the theory, as well.
Am I the only one who wants the Cthulhu mythos to be made into a musical now? Like, this would be a great song to start off with, or to introduce the townsfolk of Arkham, Massachusetts.
This is, in fact, the opening song to a musical: a Shoggoth on the Roof. Because it’s a parody of an existing musical, it’s very difficult to license but there have been a handful of performances over the years. The whole soundtrack in on CZcams, and you can download the entire script online.
@@MattieSheldonTheCZcamsrI'm gonna have to look into this at some point. Thank you for letting this other person know. I wouldn't have thought to go looking otherwise.
"am I the only one who wants a Cthulhu musical?"
DUDE YOU'RE LISTENING TO ONE
@@hoborg98 yaer but what about a second one?
@@ivanvalendryng2825 now that parodies are practically legal, would it be easier to get licenced?
"Just skip at 0:40 and start to listen."
But if we don't listen to the overture, we won't be able to recognize the themes when they come back later.
I would go broke watching a full-length musical of this on stage.
It's surprising how popular Fiddler on the Roof is with the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society.
Cthulhu is ecumenical -he will eat anybody
Hey, Fiddler on the Roof has some great songs. To be serious for a second- L’chaim! The intention is not to make fun of Red Sea Pedestrians (quoting Monty Python, Life of Brian!) - but make fun of musicals. Hell, I love Wagner, and speak fluent Austrian German. - so in the words of Mel Brooks (Genius!) - May the Schwartz be with you! Xx
There have been three notorious Hellraisers in the history of the Abbey School, Lambach, Upper Austria- Mozart, Adolf, and me! Prost!!
@David Jones
No, due to it being an amusing combination.
@David Jones He was antisemitic, but he also married a Jewish lady.
I'm not sure which came first.
"Mr Carter there is a telephone call for you!" xD
I think we all know what Carter is going to hear when he picks up the receiver ;-)
Could it be about the pizza he ordered? Or maybe a telemarketer is trying to sell him a new insurance policy? Or perhaps it’s an undead wizard looking to taunt him?
I suppose we will never know...

God 14 years and still amaizing
It's a star! It's a tree! It's *TENTACLES! TENTAAAACLES! TENTACLES!*
This makes me feel warm and fluffy inside!
Wel las said: they get inside eventually. :P
Cthulhu fatgh
Cthulhu likes you like that!
Seriously, I'd recommend this as an introduction to the Cthulhu Mythos to someone who knew little or nothing about it before. It has all the elements except a sense of cosmic dread at the insignificance of humanity: eldritch abominations, hybrid monsters, insanity, cults, tomes of eldritch lore...
my musical theatre group are practising a Fiddler medley at the moment, I have to stop myself from singing these alternative lyrics
Is it bad that I know every single word of this by heart? I love this so much....
Same. I played this at summer camp to help motivate me to get up in the morning (and kinda traumatized my cabin)
Hell no
It's a great thing!
@@shiraunderwood2294 Take my like!
Not bad at all. You’ve simply elevated yourself above.

He also later stated that it doesn't matter how you pronounce it because it wasn't meant for humans to say. There is no wrong or right way to say that dark name.

Allah wants you to follow his Will. Buddha wants you to achieve Enlightenment. Cthulhu wants to know what you taste like.
Cthulhu is a god of simple desires. ^^
Nah, he just wants to know if you fear him or not
Honestly, I don't think Cthulhu cares about you, or even knows that you exist. You're too unimportant. He just wants to get off this backwater planet and return to the stars.
Suggest he loads up then with cans of Heinz baked beans, now back on the shelf in the supermarket after we’ve got over our Covid hoarding- also, the surplus of bourbon in my local supermarket right now. Enough bourbon and beans to blow HPL himself right out of his grave and straight to Yoggoth!
Anyway, stay safe! Covid 19 is not MY preferred apocalyptic End of the World- lol!
Blasted Great Old Ones, they get everywhere these days, it's preposterous.
Carl Terwedow and do get me started on those damned deep ones, coming into our society, taking our jobs
The Fish people drive me absolutely mad! I do disdain the scent of rotting carcass whenever I leave my home. You would not believe how much Febreeze I go through each month!
@@voodootrash144 what about the Starspawn of Cthulhu?
@@andrewzuniga3649 Don't even get me started on the Starspawn!
Well that's silly. The Elder sign is obviously a star.
No, it's clearly a tree.
If you go by Lovecraft it's not, Lovecraft's version is a tree, at least that's how he illustrated it, though he never mentioned it in bis stories but I think Derleth described it as a five pointed star
I was making a joke. :/ I just finished Eldritch Tales, funnily enough though.
IronMercenary2 well I did not know that and in no way did I intend to sound rude, I apologize if I did but you have to admit: the lack of intonation makes it hard to spot irony or sarcasm in a written comment :)

I was a little black boy growing up in Toronto who fell in love with this musical back in 1979 when I saw the re-release of _Fiddler On The Roof_ in theaters, and now as a big black guy, I *_love_* this satirical _MAD_ magazine-inspired parody of _Fiddler On The Roof_ . I'd love to see this revived on Broadway and the West End, and I'd also love to see a movie version of it, too.
i had an amazing idea, a episode of a horror comedy or a fantasy show, were the characters goes to Arkham and it's become a tourist trap, and this is playing in the entrance attraction, ride has puppets on sticks, with loose flaily arm and googly eyes instead of people, but it's all true
Personally a cultist run theme park sounds like a perfect pulp Cthulhu campaign
87 Investigators are insane about this!!
Gotta love the cultist
Ia! Cthulhu! Ie!Ia! Dagon! Ia!Mother Hydra!
Ia! Ia! Ithaqua!

Hail Great Jewthulhu!
I've been looking for this song for YEARS. somehow quarantine helped me find it
I'm glad you found it. Now, don't you lose it again! 🙂
Randy Rainbow just added another song Distraction. im listening to both together.
the elder sign is shaped like a tree!
Lovecraft drew the tree version!
This never fails to put a smile on my face.
I live in New England with an eldritch forest behind the house. Now, I know it wasn't a turkey banging on the roof - it was a SHOGGOTH!
I laugh everytime I listen to this. Very funny
TENTALCES!!!
The lyrics are "bow and kneel and scrape all day", nothing about a mirror.
The stupid smile on my face when I recognized Tradition was well worth my seven minutes 🤣. BRAVO!
I love how unhinged and bouncy this song is. The lyrics are hilarious.
Bear hands? Hooray! I always wanted bear hands!
Using the tree one is the most assured way to be gobbled up by Yog-Sothoth. If you like living, and like relative sanity, use the star one.
It's a tree "Eldrich unholy war time".
Maybe our non cyclopin eyes can’t see the whole image maybe we need to lay the two on top of each other ?
@@nicholashudson6009 That sounds like a perfectly fair compromise. That I'm never going to agree with.
"Some think an elder sign is shaped like a star, some think it looks more like a little tree."
How a movie Disney made to describe December in 2020
being an killer mithological creature is to minestream........
Tentacles!!! I laughed so hard at that I need this song on my phone to the converter!
I'm an absolute Lovecraft buff and this song is amazing. Im listening to it over and over and it never stops being funny.
The other ones were really great too XD I wish I were a Deep One! Blub blub Blub Blub!
Don’t forget byhaki byhaki another Ipswich classic
The original elder sign was the tree, the star one was invented later. Debate settled, it's shaped like a tree!
I'm telling you it's a star!
Turn on the Captions and read the first minute! "Shove it on the Roof".

@NodDisciple1 even for an evil linguist, it's hard to make whole sentences when you're gibbering in madness. Besides, it was written in theatre script style.
Shoggoths are so big that if you actually had one on your roof, I would be concerned that it would cave it in; they should have an elder thing on the roof instead, they’re much smaller, even the formless spawn.
FINALLY I FOUND THIS SONG AGAIN!
My Fiance' got me into H. P. Lovecraft, I love this song and it really made his day to hear this, I'm going to get him the musical this is awesome, love it love it love it!! more more more
Pffff, that star will protect you only from farts.
Such a perfect parody. It needs more love.
Tentacles huh? I've seen enough.... Ya know what? No.
A Christmas Tree has a Star on top and is lit from the inside like a fire. Think about that for a minute.

It's definitely a star with a flame inside it.
It is a travesty that this musical has never been performed in its original form.
A might fine insane asylum that we are all mighty proud of - words to live by.
I was blusting this nonstop when playing Lovecraft in Hoi4 Kaiserredux
Having just finished a run of 'Fiddler' I have to say this is amazing and a welcome relief from a weeks worth of the original score. Excellent.
