The Awful Truth Lyrics - Really Rosie - Carole King

The awful truth 

Concerning me 

The creature-feature mystery 

Is simply this 

In the worst way 

I wanna play 

MRS. DRACULA 

The challenge is tough 

But I know I've got the stuff 

To be just spectacular 

Can't you see it in lights 

ROSIE REALLY MEETS DRACULA! 

So close your eyes 

And visualize 

Me in a cape 

And fangs in my head 

Loving a guy who's mostly dead 

(I don't see him often 

'Cause he sleeps in a coffin) 

Nothing could be zanier 

Than our lives in Transylvania 

We're fabulous one day 

And rotten the next 

Variety says 

THOSE TWO MUST BE HEXED! 

At six in the morning 

When my sweetie is yawning 

I feed all the bats 

A mush made of rats 

Then I tidy the tomb 

Cover all the trap doors 

And wash any old blood stains 

Offa the floors

DON'T YOU SEE 

This juicy part 

Was meant for me! 

I got the looks 

I got the style 

I got the bloodshot eyes 

And a ghastly smile 

It's the dream of my life 

To play DRACULA'S WIFE! 

The reviews will all rave 

This movie's a whopper 

A super show-stopper 

And no one can top her 

Not Rosie! 

Dear Academy, 

Take note 

I should get the Oscar vote 

If I don't 

I'll bite your throat!
