Lyrics

[Intro]
Bite
Bite
[Verse 1]
Release the bats, release the bats
Don't tell me that it doesn't hurt
A hundred fluttering in your skirt
Don't tell me that it doesn't hurt
[Verse 2]
My baby is alright
She doesn't mind a bit of dirt
She says, "Horror vampire bat bite"
She says, "Horror vampire, how I wish those bats would bite"
Bite
Bite
[Chorus]
Release the bats, release the bats
Pump them up and explode the things
Her legs are chafed by sticky wings
Sticky, sticky little things
[Verse 3]
My baby is a cool machine
She moves to the pace of her generator
Says, "Damn that sex supreme"
She says, "Damn that horror bat, sex vampire, cool machine"
[Chorus]
Release the bats, release the bats
Release them
[Verse 4]
Baby is a cool machine
She moves to the pulse of a generator
She says, "Damn that sex supreme"
She says, she says, "Damn that horror bat
Sex horror, sex bat, sex horror, sex vampire
Sex bat, horror vampire sex, cool machine"
[Outro]
Horror bat, bite
Cool machine, bite
Sex vampire, bite
Bite
