I’m the vampire rocker, driving till the break of dawn
I’m the vampire rocker, driving till the break of dawn
Gonna tear you up mama, when the sun goes down
There’s a red moon tonight, I smell your blood on the wind
There’s a red moon tonight, I smell your blood on the wind
I’ll rip your heart out darling, when you let me in
I’m coming for you , your blood is calling to me
Feel my hot breath on your neck; you give your soul to me
There’s a red moon tonight, I smell your blood on the wind
There’s a red moon tonight, I smell your blood on the wind
I’ll rip your heart out darling, when you let me in

I just can’t stand it when yer not at home
Need ya inna my bed, right now, tonite
Ya gimme shimmy shorts fever that impure delight
YER THE SWEETEST MAMA THAT I’VE EVER SEEN

I get the quivers and a shivers only love can bring
Wanna licka my way right up yer thighs
I’m feeling kinda nervous but I ain’t sure why
Love yer flamin’ red hair and yer swivellin’ hips
Ya shake, it never fake and ya just don’t quit
Ya got a wiggle and a jiggle in the way you walk
Wanna dress you down, got no time for talk

Child of the East Coast © 2006 Christian D
I drive 900 miles to the east coast / to the family I ain’t sure I wanna see
I still smell the ocean in my memory / man; I learned to walk right on that beach
I see the lobster fishers laying traps down / hear the seagulls screeching on the lawn
Swilling beer and waiting on the sunset / when the stars shine I’ll be drinking by the fire
CHORUS:
YOU KNOW THAT I’M A CHILD OF THE EAST COAST
I FEEL MY HEART SING WHEN THE BAY’S JUST FREE OF ICE
NOW I’M DYING IN THIS DIRTY SMOGGY HOGTOWN
SOMETIMES IT MAKES ME WONDER ‘BOUT MY MIND
You know I love the hustle of the city / but my heart longs for a salty, sandy beach
Gonna burn up that frost-heaved crappy two lane / no cabs or TTC out on them streets
Nothing to do and lots of time to do it / drinking beer and picking by the fire
Hit the bunk couple of hours before daybreak / watch the lighthouse a’ flashing on my wall
CHORUS
At six A.M . my granddad’s cooking breakfast / I smell the coffee, the bacon and the bay
the kids are all down on the beach and screaming / Toronto just ain’t far enough away

Christian D Toronto
Sounds like Joe Strummer and Nick Cave in a knife fight at Johnny Cash's house.
Re: Christian D
and the Hangovers-
"With a style that looks to The Cramps, Nick Cave and Elvis, The Hangovers belt out distorted, punky rockabilly on record and on stage as if their lives depended on it."
