Vampire Tango

When a witch met a fella named Paul
 while shopping at the Sorcerer's mall
 She accepted his invitation 
 to attend the Halloween Ball

 He picked her up next night
 in a black limousine
 No broom needed for her flight
 On this moonlit halloween

 The ballroom was filled with goblins and ghouls
 Who seemed to be enjoying the bash
  Their dance steps broke all the rules
 As they did the monster mash

 Paul looked at the witch
 with a bloodthirsty desire
 But she never suspected
 That he was a vampire

 "May I dance with you"
 He asked her that night
 To the beat of a tango their dance did ensue
 But he couldn't resist, so her neck he did bite
And with blood on his lips, they danced all night!
