The Night Shift
with Vivienne Vayne
When the sun goes down and the candles are lit,
your hostess in velvet comes to bite just a bit.
Monster records and trailers that thrill,
a scream, a creak and a shiver to chill.A sliver of history, a wink and a fright,
— Vivienne Vayne
a joke a little naughty to warm up the night.
So dim all the lights and come closer, my dear:
it's The Night Shift, darling. I'm glad that you're here.
