Lyrics[edit | edit source]

I went down last night with a tattoo madam
To a nude dagger fantasy domain
Wrapped in hell, I lost my breath… Whoa!
Chest to stimulating Chinese breast

Grisly smiles that don't flake off
Carny-colored demons leering
Vampire photo, suckin' the skin!
(Vampire! Vampire!)

Seeding the night at the inker's parlor
Flesh permabrand, pricked for the dollar
Her wrist, surreal, a heart and flying skull
Lettered, "Life and love pass swiftly"

Grisly smiles that don't flake off
Carny-colored demons leering
Vampire photo, suckinl the skin!
(Vampire! Vampire!)

Grisly smiles that don't flake off
Carny-colored demons leering
Vampire photo, suckin' the skin!

Vampire
Tattoo vampire
Tattoo vampire

Ah, ah, ah, ah!
Vampire photo, suckin’ the skin!
