Lyrics
When you meet this man says he is a count,
Meeting a man who claims to be a count
He's well dressed, bats are fying 'round
The man is elegantly dressed while bats are flying around
He's got a charming smile, he's got a hypnotic glance, he's got on to you,
The man possesses a captivating smile and a hypnotic gaze that ensnares the listener
He's got you in a trance
He has entranced or mesmerized the individual
Watch out when you get on the Transsylvian Express
Cautionary warning about boarding the Transsylvanian Express
He's got a charming smile, he's got a hypnotic glance, he's got on to you,
Reiteration of the man's charming smile, hypnotic gaze, and entrancing effect on the listener
He's got you in a trance
The individual is further ensnared or hypnotized
Find yourself in terror staring at your throat,
Feeling terrified, fearing harm to one's throat
And the train to where your blood will flow
Implying a journey on a train that leads to where one's blood will be shed
Watch out when you get on the Transsylvian Express
Reiteration of the warning about the Transsylvanian Express
Find yourself in terror staring at your throat,
Similar experience of terror related to the throat
And the train to where your blood will flow
Repetition of the train leading to where one's blood will be spilled
He's got you into his castle drinking blood red wine, when he takes you in
The man lures the individual into his castle, offering blood-red wine, before attacking by biting into their veins
His arms his teeth sink in you veins
The man embraces the victim, and his teeth pierce their veins
Watch out when you get on the Transsylvian Express
Reiteration of caution regarding the Transsylvanian Express
Psychomania in Transsylvania
Mention of psychological madness or hysteria in Transsylvania
