{spoken} Castle Duckula... Home for many centuries to a dreadful dynasty of vicious vampire ducks...the Counts of Duckula! Legend has it that these foul beings can be destroyed by a stake through the heart, or exposure to sunlight This does not suffice, however, for they may be brought back to life by means of a sacred rite that can be performed once a century when the moon is in the eighth house of Aquarius... (bat wings...blood) (I'll get it!) The latest reincarnation did not run according to plan... (Ooh...) {sung} In the heart of Transylvania In the vampire hall of fang, yeah There's not a vampire zanier than (Duckula) He won't bite beast or man, 'cause he's a vegetarian (Aah!) And things never run to plan for (Duckula) If you're lookin' for some fun, you can always count upon The wild and wacky one they call (Duckula) {spoken} Heh heh, Count Duckula, heh heh heh heh
