WEST WING STORY

When you're a snake
you're a snake all the way
From your first breathy noise
'til your last dying day.

When you're a snake
You've got suck-ups around
Little boy you're a man,
Little man you're a prick.

When you're a snake
There's no way to resign
Though you've fallen in love
With blonde-haired Carolyn

You'll take over the world
'cause Nicholas will make ya
Your coils are all curled
Since Barney waked ya.

You'll woo a pretty girl
After murdering her papa
Make Barney a vamp
For tryin' to stop ya!

When you're a snake
You'll break all of the rules
Like an arrogant fool
And act nasty and cruel

When you're a snake
There's no way to be nice
'cause when Bruno revolts
He will load all the dice.

When you're a snake
And at last you reform
You'll get tossed off a cliff
In a Collinwood storm

Then when you're dead
Your main squeeze has bad dreams
And she wakes up each time
With a Dark Shadows screeeeeeeeam!


MORE WEST WING STORY

My mom drank too much sherry
My dad was cold and mean
My fiancee dug my uncle
Her servant went for me
I learned that she used witchcraft
Then she got really peeved

Golly, Jeepers, that's why I'm a vamp
He's a vamp he's a vamp
His hand's cold and damp
And he'll bite your neck
'cause he's a vamp.

That's a touchin' good story.

Let me tell it to the world!

No, tell it to the doc

Please kindly doctor Hoffman
You gotta understand
It's this curse from which I suffer
That gets me out of hand
I really am a good guy
Why don't you ask my fans?

Golly Moses that's why I'm so tough

Oh, cryptkeeper willy, you've gotten me miffed
This guy don't need a doc he needs a mad scientist

Oh, doctor can't you make me
A body that's not cursed
And rip off Mary Shelly
Who thought the scheme up first
The medicine you gave me
Won't keep away the thirst

Holy Moly that's why I suck blood

He sucks blood he sucks blood
He sucks lots of blood
Like at night he gets up and sucks blood

I went into the 90s to rescue all the kids
From their dead uncle Quentin
A good thing that I did
But when at last I got back
These weirdos with their hoods
Said to revive the snakes

They're mad at me. That's why I'm undead
He's undead. He's undead
he's undead once more
So the rest of us can keep our jobs

So listen Willy Loomis
You say you got a bride
And say you must get married
And so can't help our side
I'm sorry that I beat you
Put you in that padded room

Sucked your blood, but even so we're friends

(willy solo) I'm his friend. I'm his friend
To the bitter end
Don't ask me why but I'm his friend


YET MORE WEST WING STORY

I'm real pretty
Oh, so pretty
I'm real pretty and wealthy but dumb
So I'll marry any half-way presentable bum.

See the pretty girl in the mirror there?
Who could that rich Collins girl want?
A top harvard grad? With a real rich dad?
No!

I'm real pretty
Oh, so pretty
I am pretty and wealthy but dumb
So I'm nuts for any hard case that makes me say "yum".

My analyst says it's self-esteem
That makes me chase boys from bad dreams
Has he got a job? I am not a snob!
Is he sweet and kind? No! But I don't mind!
Love and I are blind!

`cause I'm pretty
Oh, so pretty
I'm real pretty and wealthy but dumb
So I follow a perverse rule of romantic thumb

See the unkempt drifter I'm married to?
What in him could I ever see?
He gave me bad dreams
I woke up and screamed
Mom got really steamed
So we married
And a shadow is now after him.
