- ...white on white translucent black capes...
- back on the rack
- bela lugosi's dead
- ...the bats have left the bell tower...
- the victims have been bled
- red velvet lines the black box
- bela lugosi's dead
- ...the virginal brides file past his tomb...
- strewn with times' dead flowers
- bereft of deadly bloom
- alone, in a darkened room
- the Count
- bela lugosi's dead

- I think that's it.
- I always wondered however was it: 'Back on the rack' or 'Black on the black'.
- Most definately one of THE best songs ever.
