Vampire Time
J. Southerland/Benny Leverton
Verse One
Sleepin in a graveyard…
Ain’t no way to live a life…
My friends are white and pastey….
Bloodsucker for a wife….
I sleep all day stay up all night
Just roam around looking for
Someone to bite
Chorus
Living on Vampire time….
Living on Vampire time…
I don’t always look so good…
But I always feel just fine…
Living on Vampire time….
Living on Vampire time…
I don’t always look so good…
But I always feel just fine…
Verse Two
Count on me to startle…
With supernatural aplomb…
Mere mortals call me morbid….
Ghoulfriends say I’m the bomb….
My teeth are a white and shiney
Transylvanian dentists dream…
And when I flash my pearly whites….
The girls all swoon and scream…
Chorus
Living on Vampire time….
Living on Vampire time…
I don’t always look so good…
But I always feel just fine…
Living on Vampire time….
Living on Vampire time…
I don’t always look so good…
But I always feel just fine…
Bridge/Instrumental Verse or Stanza?????
Verse Three
So my un-life keeps unfolding…
For years and years and years…
When I look into the mirror….
I don’t see no vampire tears.…
Can’t get no satisfaction …
From your lack of sympathy…
I’m just a midnight rambler….
And that’s good enough for me….
Chorus
Living on Vampire time….
Living on Vampire time…
I don’t always look so good…
But I always feel just fine…
Living on Vampire time….
Living on Vampire time…
I don’t always look so good…
But I always feel just fine…
