The awful truth
|
Concerning me
|
The creature-feature mystery
|
Is simply this
|
In the worst way
|
I wanna play
|
MRS. DRACULA
|
|
The challenge is tough
|
But I know I've got the stuff
|
To be just spectacular
|
Can't you see it in lights
|
ROSIE REALLY MEETS DRACULA!
|
So close your eyes
|
And visualize
|
Me in a cape
|
And fangs in my head
|
Loving a guy who's mostly dead
|
(I don't see him often
|
'Cause he sleeps in a coffin)
|
Nothing could be zanier
|
Than our lives in Transylvania
|
We're fabulous one day
|
And rotten the next
|
Variety says
|
THOSE TWO MUST BE HEXED!
|
|
At six in the morning
|
When my sweetie is yawning
|
I feed all the bats
|
A mush made of rats
|
Then I tidy the tomb
|
Cover all the trap doors
|
And wash any old blood stains
|
Offa the floors
|
|
DON'T YOU SEE
|
This juicy part
|
Was meant for me!
|
I got the looks
|
I got the style
|
I got the bloodshot eyes
|
And a ghastly smile
|
It's the dream of my life
|
To play DRACULA'S WIFE!
|
The reviews will all rave
|
This movie's a whopper
|
A super show-stopper
|
And no one can top her
|
Not Rosie!
|
Dear Academy,
|
Take note
|
I should get the Oscar vote
|
If I don't
|
I'll bite your throat!
