Witchcraft 1957

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 21 Apr 2003

Shades of old Lucretia Borgia!
There's a devil in you tonight,
'n' although my heart adores ya
my head says it ain't right,
right to let you make advances, oh no!
Under normal circumstances,
I'd go but oh!

Those fingers in my hair,
that sly, come hither stare
that strips my conscience bare,
it's witchcraft
and I've got no defense for it,
the heat is too intense for it,
what good would common sense for it do?
'Cause it's witchcraft!
Wicked witchcraft
and although I know it's strictly taboo,
when you arouse the need in me,
my heart says:
"Yes, indeed" in me,
"Proceed with what you're leadin me to!"
It's such an ancient pitch..
but one I wouldn't switch
'cause there's no nicer witch
than you!

Those fingers in my hair,
that sly, come hither stare
that strips my conscience bare,
it's witchcraft
and I've got no defense for it,
the heat is too intense for it,
what good would common sense for it do?
'Cause it's witchcraft!
Wicked witchcraft
and although I know it's strictly taboo,
when you arouse the need in me,
my heart says:
"Yes, indeed" in me,
"Proceed with what you're leadin me to!"
It's such an ancient pitch..
but one I wouldn't switch
'cause there's no nicer witch
than you!
