Yesterday, I had both the Bauhaus “Bela Lugosi’s Dead” and the theme song to Picture Pages stuck in my head. Round and round they whirled. A snag. A fray. The threads got tangled in my boiling brain…

The bats have left the bell tower
The victims have been bled
Time to get your crayons and your pencils
Bereft in deathly bloom
Alone in a darkened room
You can play with Picture Pages
Fill your day with Picture Pages
‘Till Bela Lugosi does a Picture Page with you
