lyrics

You sit upon your throne of stone with the wolfman and the mummy. Come here, so near, Ghoulita dear. I think it's pretty funny. Well you went to the graveyard to write your book. I think you should slow down, Bob. But now you missed the turn though your lights were on and look where you've ended up. It's Orgy of the Dead. Worst movie that's ever been made. The sun is coming up and then it's right back in the grave. Said it's way back when in 1965. And she danced so well she will be kept alive. The wolfman would have you for his own. I promised the mummy a reward. But don't you fear you wouldn't be here if you hadn't wrecked your Ford. Throw gold at her. More gold, I say. Then throw her in the pot. You think it has boiled her to death but look again- has not! I saw the movie long ago. Now up to a hundred times. I have memorized every scene and I can quote every line. So put your hand over your heart and say the pledge with pride. The finest film Ed Wood did make is one long fucked up ride. I said it's way back when. Doesn't mean we can't do it again. Say baby, do you want to dance? I would if I had the chance but the sun came up. You have good luck. Its' light has saved your life. There's nothing left but bones and death so take Shirley to be your wife.
