The Lyrics
A well known TV horror host after Vampira and Elvira, Bob Wilkins, and others...
Horror TV, Svengoolie's the king
Late at night, here's what's on the way
(Chorus)
Creature feature surprise
Or dead that won't die, that's Svengoolie
Or low budget Sci-fi
Japanimation wide-eyes, that's Svengoolie
Bone chilling horrible things that make us all scream
He'll say, "Bring on Bela!"
Lugosi, frame-by-frame, Dracula's twisted fame
Old vampire killa
Fright wig and top hat are cool
Black makeup like skull, that's Svengoolie
Blood curdling cries
In good ol' black & white, makes you jump
No doubt Elvira was queen
Bob Wilkins smoking early morning
Great hosts to be, but naturally
In a coffin comes he, that's Svengoolie
Chorus
Repeat second and third verses x2
Late at night, here's what's on the way
(Chorus)
Creature feature surprise
Or dead that won't die, that's Svengoolie
Or low budget Sci-fi
Japanimation wide-eyes, that's Svengoolie
Bone chilling horrible things that make us all scream
He'll say, "Bring on Bela!"
Lugosi, frame-by-frame, Dracula's twisted fame
Old vampire killa
Fright wig and top hat are cool
Black makeup like skull, that's Svengoolie
Blood curdling cries
In good ol' black & white, makes you jump
No doubt Elvira was queen
Bob Wilkins smoking early morning
Great hosts to be, but naturally
In a coffin comes he, that's Svengoolie
Chorus
Repeat second and third verses x2

Hey wow, nice tribute. I have followed Sven since he first cracked open his coffin in the 70s at WFLD-TV in Chicago (he is still based here at WCIU-TV). Dude,consider doing this again, with extra verses and email it to him!
Yeah, Sven is a great host. Back in the '70s, my brother and I would stay up late to watch the creature features hosted by Sacramento's Bob Wilkins who had combed over blonde hair, horned rim black glasses and who smoked a fat cigar in a rocking chair!!! My mom thought he was both disgusting and a bad influence. We loved him as much as Pat Patterson vs the Masked Marvels in pre-WWF wresting!!! Mom later loved to stay up late and watch Tom Labrie's Night Comfort Theater (Tom was from Sacramento's Labrie's waterbeds). We thought Tom was a sleeze!
Kansas City had Penny Dreadful in the late afternoon and Gregory Graves at night. I remember watching Elvira with my cousin, both of us hoping she would have a "wardrobe malfunction". Later saw her as Cassandra Peterson in a magazine centerfold, showing what she barely managed to conceal on TV.
