(Instrumental)
I'm all alone
Feeling so blue
Thinking about you
And the love we once knew
And each time I do
It brings back those memories
Of El Monte
Remember the dance
I held you so tight
The Satins were singing
"In The Still Of The Nite"
You gave me your heart
And your love undying
Now I'm alone
I'm sitting here crying
If only they have
Those dances again
I'd know where to find you
And all my old friends
The Shields would sing . . .
"You cheated. You lied . . ."
And the Heartbeats . . .
"You're a thousand miles away . . ."
And the Medallions with "The Letter" and . . .
"Sweet words of his mortality pizmotality . . ."
Marvin and Johnny with . . .
"Cherry Pie . . ."
And then, Tony Allen with . . .
"Night owl . . ."
And I, Cleve Duncan, along with the Penguins will sing . . .
"Earth Angel
Earth Angel
Will you be mine?"
At El Monte
If I could go back
To those days of the past
I'd show you a love . . .
A love that would last
Oh, I remember
Those wonderful dances
In El Monte
In El Monte
"Earth angel
Earth Angel
Will you be mine?"
At El Monte
(You dirty fink!)
Hey Baby

Oh, what have we here? Oh! A letter! It smells . . . Oh, how wonderful! I just love letters that are perfumed . . . Oh! Lovely, lovely stench! Essence of wolfbane! Oh let me open it . . .
"Dear Jeepers,
It was so nice of you to attend my party at the castle last week. You and Doris make such a lovely couple. I'm also very glad to have seen Igor, Boris, and Sally Snake, and Funkin Pumpkin the Rat. It was so much fun when we all played 'Pin the Tail on the Werewolf,' oh yes! and 'Electrical Chairs.' When everybody sat down, Oh! Two million volts! Ha-ha-ha . . . ! Oh, such fun!"
Uh . . . Doris, squeeze me a glass of mildew . . .
And to continue now . . .
"Although the party was supposed to be rot luck, it turned out to be pot luck. It was still lovely of you to bring along that 'Leg of Leprechaun au Gratin.' Desdemona wants the recipe.Well, I'm . . . I'm rather exhausted, so I . . . I must close now. The sun is coming up and I must return to the crypt.
Sincerely,
Count Dracula.
Oh, oh, P.S. Here's a riddle:
Where When there's a willwheel, what's watch the way?!
Ho-ho! Ha-ha-ha . . . !
Doris, get out your poison pen and take a letter. I have to write to Count Dracula. You know he wrote me a letter of that sort . . .. All right, Doris.
Dear Count Dracula,
I am writing to you from Cucamonga . . . Ha-ha! Cucamonga? The weather is lovely. The nausea of noon. The wind is always blowing and the sun never shines. And it's rainy and damp four hundred days of the year.
I enjoyed the party very much. Especially the sumptuous feast you had prepared. It was thrillling. From the first appetizers, the 'Chicken Fried Grub Worms,' on through the dessert, ohhhh . . . 'Blood Pudding!' Oh, I love 'Blood Pudding!' Oh, yes! It was a masterpiece of culinary skill. Although I . . . I was worried for a moment when you . . . you said the main course was . . . 'Fish and Chips.' Oh, we're not that plebeian in Cucamonga. But my fears were quickly allayed when I discovered to my delight it was 'Silverfish and Buffalo Chips!' Ho-ho! The most . . . Oh, unique! Oh, they're so squirmy! Oh-ho-ho! Oh, the first one went down easy, but the second one was so greasy! Ho-ho-ho . . ! Oh, my . . . Oh, I'm getting being carried away, because I . . . I really must apologize for getting tipsy and singing, but I have always wanted to be the death of the party.
Uh, when you hear the pellets drop, count ten, take a deep bleath breath . . .
Uhwrr, uhwrr, he he he he
Everytime I see you . . .
Whenever you walk by
I want to hold you
Darling, please let me try
Darling, I love you
I really do
Darling, I want you
Let me be true.
I want to hold you . . .
Everytime I see you
If you would love me . . .

We would be lovers . . .
