Let me tell you your fortune
It could be sinister or maybe not
Like a leopard
Can’t change its own spots
Ride a moon beam
Sail the starlight
A blaze in the night sky
See the witch’s flight
Caught in a witch’s spell
Got a tale to tell
Caught in a witch’s spell
Got a tale to tell
Caught in a witch’s spell
Good time maker who likes it hot
Like a card-playin’ shark who takes the whole lot
(And that’s a lot)
Ride a moonbeam
Sail the starlight
A blaze in the night sky
See the witch’s flight
Caught in a witch’s spell
Got a tale to tell
Caught in a witch’s spell
Got a tale to tell
Caught in a witch’s spell
It’s all coming to ya
It’s all coming through ya
I get bathed in the light
The spell’s just right
Caught in a witch’s spell
Got a tale to tell
Caught in a witch’s spell
Got a tale to tell
Caught in a witch’s spell
Crystal balls and an almanac
She gonna take you to hell and back
I’ve got potions, snake oil style
Good luck charms and a witch’s spell
