Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
Oh, and there's a Butthole Surfers song called "Dracula From Houston." And the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion did a whole Vampire-themed album, but I don't remember its name. I don't like that band.
Tsunami Bomb, "R.V.E. (Rotting Vampire Eyeballs)."
Come to see you at the mortuary, you came round looking Oh so scary
It was very very late at night, and you gave me such a fright
We held hands to your lair then you gave me that monster stare
Being with you is like sucking on rotting vampire eyeballs!

And soft skin...forever
