Intro: soaring guitar riff, thunderous tom fills, bass slides, and a bluesy pentatonic lick] [Twin guitars duel as the lights flash — drums kick in with a swaggering half-time groove. Crowd roar fades behind the first verse riff.] [Verse: swaggering mid-tempo hard rock groove, crunchy Les Paul rhythm, vocals dripping attitude] I was born in nineteen-seventy-five A vampire prince with my evil side Well I was cruel I was no fool I was the king of the goblins [Prechorus: cymbals shimmer, chord climb builds tension, backing vocals echo key phrases] But there comes a time In every vampire's life [Chorus: huge power chords, reverb-drenched vocals, harmonized guitars, pounding drums] When you see that guy A skeleton in the corner I was born in nineteen-seventy-five Now I have the worst Halloween costume of all time [Guitar Solo 1: searing bends, wah-soaked leads, arena reverb, echoing motif of the verse riff] [Lead guitar wails like a cry through fog — a perfect blend of blues phrasing and hair-metal theatrics. ] [Verse 2: slightly faster tempo, added cowbell, more grit in the vocals] Well now I'm thin but I was fit In the 90s I had abs of steel Well now I'm weak and I have weak bones But in the 90s I was strong as an ox [Prechorus: layered harmonies, drum fills roll up to the chorus] But there comes a time In every vampire's life [Chorus: full-band power, layered gang vocals, echo trails after each line] When you see that guy A skeleton in the corner I was born in nineteen-seventy-five Now I have the worst Halloween costume of all time [Bridge: half-time feel, blues-rock breakdown, smoky organ under the guitars] [Guitar sustains while the bass holds steady — the singer steps back, breathing the room, then snarls into the mic.] [Guitar Solo 2: climactic tapping and harmonized melody line, drum rolls and cymbal crashes building to crescendo] [Outro: slowed-down reprise of the main riff, vocals ad-lib “seventy-five!” and “worst costume of all time!”] [Song fades on a screaming guitar note that feeds back into the void, like a ghost in leather pants].
