Rudolph, the Red-Eyed Vampire

To the tune of "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer"

(Intro:)
You know Dracula, Blacula, Count Nosferatu,
Others who don't give their names till they've got you,
But don't you forget
The most evil vampire yet...

Rudolph, the red-eyed vampire,
Has two very pointy fangs,
And if he tries to kiss you
You had better say, "No thanks".**

All of the other vampires
Said his eyes were much too bright.
They always made poor Rudolph
Hunt all by himself each night.

Then one stormy Hallowe'en
Dracula said, "Son,
Dollink, come here, if you would..."
Then Rudolph sprang, and drank his blood.

Then all the vampires feared him
And they shouted out with dread:
"Rudolph, the red-eyed vampire,
You can lead us now instead."

(Coda:)
Yai-dai-dai-dai-dai,
Yai-dai-dai-dai-dai,
Yai-dai-dai-dai-dai, dai-dai.

Tribes of the Moon

We tribes of the moon we hidden ones
Made from the stuff of flesh & dreams
We dwell in the dark, we flourish there
Softly devouring your screams
Whisper our names - we hear, we hear,
Beloved monsters all
And if your gods would damn us,
If your gods would damn us
That's alright - we have

No grace from which to fall, no grace from which to fall
No grace from which to fall: we tribes of the moon
We tribes of the moon, we tribes of the moon

We live on the inside - quietly
We travel occulted ways
We are what you fear and long to be,
Beside us reality frays
Visible now to eyes that dare,
Unlovely kindred, all
And if your gods deny us, if your gods deny us
We're still here, we have:

No grace from which to fall, no grace from which to fall
No grace from which to fall, we tribes of the moon
We tribes of the moon we tribes of the moon

Mortal dreams and mortal blood
Fire and flight and changing shape
Subtle, we, and patient too
Beware the night the Tribes of the Moon escape...
Escape... escape...

And if your gods remember, if your gods remember
Tell them this: we have

No grace from which to fall, no grace from which to fall
No grace from which to fall: we tribes of the moon
We tribes of the moon, we tribes of the moon

Mortal dreams and mortal blood
Fire and flight and future eyes
Subtle, we, and patient too
And for the Tribes of the Moon your dreaming soul cries...
Cries... cries....

I am Your Demon

I am your demon, you have made me what you're most afraid to meet
Careful cultivation of your hate for me has made my change complete
We are alike, you know, you recognise yourself in what I am
We are alike you know, my transformation you yourself began;

I am your demon - you have to hate me
I am your handiwork - see how well you made me
I am your mirror, I'm what you dream on
I am your beast, I am your bane, I am your demon
I am your demon

And do you always look behind to make sure I'm not at your heel?
And when you see me smiling at you, girl, how does that make you feel?
I've much to thank you for, and courtesy demands I make that clear
I've much to thank you for, I'm glad you hold my memories so dear;

I am your demon - you have to hate me
I am your handiwork - see how well you made me
I am your mirror, I'm what you dream on
I am your beast, I am your bane, I am your demon
I'm just your demon, from your own choosing
I am your rival, girl, and seems to me you're losing
I am indifferent to your small raging
I'm not the source, I'm not the reason for your caging
I'm just your demon, I am your demon, I am your demon
I am your demon, I am your demon, your private demon!

Obfuscated

by Rev. Pee Kitty
All rights reserved; may be freely distributed

TTTO "Come Out and Play (Keep 'Em Separated)" by The Offspring. (Too much Vampire: The Masquerade one night...)

Like the Domination
Like the Thaumaturgy,
The Kindred load up on this one discipline
To take out opponents with the greatest of ease

It starts off with cloaking yourself in a door
But starts to get insane when the dots number four
If one guy doesn't load up on the right disciplines
You get to smash him up, smash him up, smash him up, smash him up...

Hey! Think this guy is tailing me?
Wits plus Stealth! (You gotta keep it Obfuscated)
Hey! Think he's coming after me?
Wits plus Stealth! (You gotta keep it Obfuscated)
Heeeey, Kindred or kine
Can't see me til their Auspex level starts to rival mine
Heyyyy, vanish and play!

By the time they know what's happening,
It's already too late
Blood pool's down to a handful of points
And the damage levels are far too great

You dodge to and fro, slashing him here and there
But when he goes to hit you, he's swinging at air
The difficulty rises, until it hits ten
While you slash him up, slash him up, slash him up, slash him up...

Hey! Think this guy is tailing me?
Wits plus Stealth! (You gotta keep it Obfuscated)
Hey! Think he's coming after me?
Wits plus Stealth! (You gotta keep it Obfuscated)
Heeeey, Kindred or kine
Can't see me til their Auspex level starts to rival mine
Heyyyy, vanish and play!
