"Transylvanian Concubine" (The Manson Mix, Radio Edit) is a remix of "Transylvanian Concubine", a song featured on cello rock band Rasputina's 1996 release Thanks for the Ether. The song was remixed by Marilyn Manson and Sean Beavan with Twiggy Ramirez and Norman Block. The remix was made as a show of respect towards Rasputina, who opened for Marilyn Manson during the North American leg of the band's Dead to the World tour in 1997, where they were frequently harassed onstage. Rasputina returned this compliment with their 2001 EP Lost & Found, which featured their cover of Marilyn Manson's "Tourniquet".

Lyrics[edit]

   If you want to know how
   To fly high, then go now
   To the place where all the concubines...
   Meet and converse with them
   Marvel at their pale skin
   Wonder how they chew on their pointy...
   Teeth and hair are beauty
   They know it's their duty
   To be countess in their hearts and their...
   Minds that have to whisper
   See in them a sister
   Look into their eyes and you'll become
   Transylvanian concubine
   You know what flows there like wine
   Stay here with us, it's just time
   Transylvanian concubine
   Sorrow is their master
   Cackling with laughter
   Now he's having just one piece of...
   Cakey is their make-up
   Catholics try to shake up
   All the things that form their lives, but they're...
   Dead, their sighs, their songs
   They know what they do is wrong
   Stay here with us, it's just time
   Transylvanian concubine
   Candelabra's lighted
   Satan has been sighted
   Never has there been an evening like...
   This is what they wanted
   Always to feel hunted
   You can never be too rich or too thin
   The blood has run out
   Fangs ruin any cute pout
   Morning has come now they've flown
   What have you learned from what has been shown?
   Transylvanian concubine
   You know what flows there like wine
   Stay here with us, it's just time
   Transylvanian concubine
   Transylvanian concubine
   You know what flows there like wine
   Stay here with us, it's just time
   Transylvanian concubine
   You know what flows there like wine
