Vlad III, Prince of Wallachia (1431–1476), also known by his patronymic name Dracula (son of the Dragon, after his father Vlad II Dracul), and posthumously dubbed Vlad the Impaler (Romanian: Vlad Țepeș pronounced [ˈvlad ˈt͡sepeʃ]), was a three-time Voivode of Wallachia, ruling mainly from 1456 to 1462, the period of the incipient Ottoman conquest of the Balkans. His father was a member of the Order of the Dragon (Dracul) which was founded to protect Christianity in Europe.
Vlad III spent much of his rule campaigning against the Ottoman Empire and its expansion. As the cognomen 'The Impaler' suggests, his practice of impaling his enemies is central to his historical reputation. During his lifetime, his reputation for excessive cruelty spread abroad, to Germany and elsewhere in Europe. The total number of his victims is estimated in the tens of thousands. The name of the vampire Count Dracula in Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula was inspired by Vlad's patronymic.
During his life Vlad wrote his name in Latin documents as Wladislaus Dragwlya, vaivoda partium Transalpinarum (1475).

Face check, I walk this beach
I'm frying in the heat
In the cauldron stir me
Chomp down my diamond teeth I ain't got
The simple things in life I feel like
You have got to witness
This is your last retreat, my last repeat
All my friends are as sharp as razors
Cut you down if you touch the faders
High class girls hung in elevators
Now we have got the floor
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
You can't miss me, I'm still alive
Snake skin shoes, I'm pleading homicide
Come on and feel this, I'm still alive
Joker meet you on the other side
Banshie, I hear you call
We need to raise the dead
We need to raise the people
Cut throat, this blood runs thick
It is true the simple things in life have been lost
You have got to witness
We are the last beatniks, the lost heretics
All my friends are as sharp as razors
Cut you down if you touch the faders
Listen up all you masqueraders
Now we have got the floor
Now we have got the floor
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
You can't miss me, I'm still alive
Snake skin shoes, I'm pleading homicide
Come on and feel this, I'm still alive
Joker meet you on the other side
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Vlad, Vlad, Vlad the impaler
Vlad, Vlad, He could have been a sailor but he's
Vlad, Vlad, Vlad the impaler
Vlad, Vlad, He could have been a Whaler
Could have been a Tailor,
He turned out to be Norman Mailer
Whooooooaaaaaaaa
He stepped back and he smoked a joint
Twenty thousand peasants had to get the point
Mommy was a hamster, Daddy was a jailer
Real tough childhood for such a fucking failure!
He's so glad he's
Vlad, Vlad, Vlad the impaler
Vlad, Vlad, He could have been a sailor but he's
Vlad, Vlad, Vlad the impaler
Vlad, Vlad, He could have been a Tailor
Could have been a Whaler,
He turned out to be Norman Mailer
Whooooooaaaaaaaa
V-L-A-D Vlad!
When he was a boy, they sent him to the Turks
But you know they didn't like him because all the Turks were jerks
When Vlad returned home his wrath for his ancient foe had spurned
But the ancient art of impalement was something that the boy had learned
Oh, how he learned
He learned, they burned and burned and burned
Rotisseries of corpses turned
Oh he's so glad,
Impaler
Master of the pike
Blasphemer
Of all human life
Blood-letter
Drinker of gods wine
Torturer
Of body and mind
Impaler
Impaler
No need for the grave
Death dealer
By stake and by blade
Life bleeder
Romania's shame
Emperor
Or vampire insane
Maniacal mind
Disrupter of life
His thirst never dies
Impaler
Usurper of death
Blood hunter
Stalker of the flesh
Tormentor
Impaler of heads
Destroyer
Unto his death-bed
