Description

Bela Lugosi.

Was he a monster?
Not Frankenstein's.
Although he wanted to be.

Was he that good ?
There is no doubt.
He was the best you'd see.

Say hello to Bela.
It didn't go to his head.
He's standing in his cape.
One of the living dead.

Did Boris steal all the scenes?
Or was it his accent?
The dramatic moving hands.
That cut the devils cheese.

Say hello to Bela.
His addiction is fed.
His war wounds still ache.
It's hard to bet out of bed.

He went from...
Stage to film to fame. From film to film to famous,
From fan to fan to fix, from A to B to seedy.

The Morphine dulls all the pain .
But stops the flow of scripts.
Oh, no , not the Vampire again.
Please stop this type cast grip.

We say goodbye to Bela.
Resurrected by Ed.
He's sleeping in his cape.
Bela Lugosi is Dead.
