I Don't Care About Vampires Anymore


 
I was downloading a bunch of old ditties of mine onto a computer from the Typepad website cuz it's no longer gonna exist, come September 30. (That's why you're no longer see those blue, underliney song player thingies). I needed to do that cuz those songs would be hard for me to find, y'know, cuz I have 'em on a bunch of random thumb drives and stuff. 

Anyway, there were a couple years where I did lots of songs about vampires. I realized I haven't really thought about vampires in a long time, so I did this song.




Here are the lyrics (since the rapping is a little fast in places):

I don't care about vampires anymore
I don't care about vampires anymore
I don't care about vampires anymore
Maybe it is cuz I've lost some interest
Am I depressed? Maybe so
I don't care about vampires anymore
I don't care about vampires anymore

There was a time period when vampires 
were on my mind and I've been a fan
of the series that is called, "Buffy
the Vampire Slayer." It was so lovely
And don't forget "Twilight." Those books
can be addictive and I was so hooked
They were like crack. I'd go through that stack
of books so fast. They were always in my backpack

In 2009 I wrote many 
songs about all those vampires that sent me
into Fantasy Land with some sexy
glamorous vampire-man. Let me
tell you, the change in my brain from that time till
now ain't the best. I'm depressed and I'm filled
with some apathy. Is that why
I don't care about vampires? And my
songs got dark, with no spark in the context
of the badness and sadness. My song-fest
now is grim. The world is in trouble
My feelings are dim, and my sadness is doubled

Or do they just sound stupid to me now?
Fucking sucking blood is astoundingly boring now
An sometimes, I wonder why I was in-
to them. Now it seems like it's something 
arbitrary. Now it seems like it's random
to be a member of such a fandom
But maybe someday, I will go back
to the vampires, who have capes that are so black
and the blood sucking will once more be something
that I wanna watch. It'll be a fun thing.
But now I will say to you today
that vampires are as boring as Tuesdays

I don't care about them anymore
I don't care about them anymore
I don't care about vampires anymore
I don't care about vampires anymore
