Witches

Lyrics

[Intro: Kyle Falconer] Witches work only with magic [Chorus] Witches work only with magic And waiting on adulthood's tragic Pull the cover over one more time Stab us in the back, your trademark crime It's never fine [Verse 1] An' scratch your fingernails right down the blackboard Abuse your manicure, why don't you? Woah-oh And paperclips can bend and shape my dear 'cause they are cheaply manufactured Just like you, woah-oh [Chorus] (A big bar of chocolate) Witches work only with magic And waiting on adulthoods tragic You can turn me into stone 'Cause a worthless snake sits in her throne All on her own Witches work only with magic And waiting on adulthoods tragic Don't come 'round lookin' for me 'Cause I'm twеnty-two in nintenty-three Oh, can't you see You won't get me You won't gеt me [Verse 2] So don't you try to scare me so With your purple eyes and square toes My mother warned me about you, you're not as bad as you look And I found you in a book [Chorus] (Snakes like little boys) And witches work only with magic And waiting on adulthoods tragic Pull the cover over one more time Stab us in the back, your trademark crime It's never fine So, witches work only with magic And being born sometimes is tragic And if you're livin' in witches lane You only have your parents to blame Stay away, stay away from me (Hey)
