"weekend witch "



Black eyeliner, black velvet dress

She bought six books from Llewellyn Press

She's a Weekend Witch - a Weekend Witch

She saw a movie all about magic spells

Now she's sure she could do it just as well

Now she's set to plumb the cosmos from the safety of her room

Her aura incandescent in her adolescent gloom



She's a weekend witch, with a weekday mind

And some silver stars that she leaves behind

And it might seem funny, but it's what she does

And you can't return her to the way she was

She's a weekend witch from the magic wood

And I wish like hell I looked half as good

But at least she means well... (at least she means something) 

And that's better than nothing at all (nothing at all) 



Altar candles, altered state of mind

Cranking up the Bauhaus, closing the blind

She's a Weekend Witch - a Weekend Witch

Chants the invocation, only wearing skin

Hopes her parents don't come blundering in

She wears a name from a fantasy novel, a cloak, a jewel, a hat

She learned her Tarot back to front and she channels Cleopatra's cat



She's a Weekend Witch, with a weekday mind

And some silver stars that she leaves behind

And if she can't stand it, then it's overthrown

This is how she planned it, so just leave her alone

She's a Weekend Witch, and she turns me on

Though I can't help thinking that her mind is gone

But at least she means well (at least she means something) 

and that's better than nothing at all (nothing at all)



Can I touch you, Weekend Witch, or can I leave my mark? 

Your face is white, your lips are black, you're glowing in the dark



She's a Priestess of the Mysteries, she's got a new crystal ball

So they think she's a weirdo? Well she'll show them all! 

She's a Weekend Witch - a Weekend Witch

Her mum don't understand her; her boyfriend is worse

She's searching through her books for some kind of curse

She's drifting through the Otherworld in search of certainty

But the reflection of her makeup in the mirror is all we see 



She's a weekend witch, with a weekday mind

And some silver stars that she leaves behind

And it might seem funny, but it's what she does

And you can't return her to the way that she was

She's a weekend witch from the magic wood

And I wish like hell I looked half as good

But at least she means well... (at least she means something) 

And that's better than nothing at all (nothing at all) 

Yes at least she means well... (at least she means something) 

And that's better than nothing at all (nothing at all)
