Lupine Serenade
You'd like to hang with a villainous gang
McBeth's your favorite play.
You say Godzilla is hardly a killer.
Ted Bundy just had a bad day.
You're always in hell when they're running a roast
You sometimes make love on the moon
Where no angels and demons end up as toast
For the creature from the black lagoon.
While zombies ooze as they bellow the blues.
You've dine with Fu Manchu
Play ping pong with old King Kong;
Baby, I'm a monster too.
Lunch or a revel with a Persian devil
To those hardly lustful or quizzical
Might seem perverse, even much worse:
Too mystically metaphysical.
You can't get sued by a ghost;
They never show up in court.
You could lose a bundle at most
With the much more conventional sort.
While zombies ooze as they bellow the blues.
You've dine with Fu Manchu
Play ping pong with old King Kong;
Baby, I'm a monster too.
You like your lovers spectacular.
You tried both Jekyll and Hyde.
Spent a weekend with Dracula
Several folks who died.
When serial killers were crummy
The Wolfman drank weak tea
You played gin rummy with a King Tut mummy;
Honey, what's the matter with me?
While zombies ooze as they bellow the blues.
You've dine with Fu Manchu
Play ping pong with old King Kong;
Baby, I'm a monster too.
