Something Wicked (That Way Went)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Come and join our wild ride, the sideshow is in town!
With dancing bears and elephants, and certainly some clowns.
The greatest wonder of them all, a marvel to behold:
An illustrated man so dark, will own your very soul!
Something wicked this way comes,
Something in the night!
Something wicked that way went,
What an awful fright!
Something wicked this way comes,
Something isn't right...
Something wicked that way went,
Tempting you with...
Health and vigor, youth and strength,
We can make it so!
Join us on our carousel -
"Round and round you go!"
Anything your heart desires: Make your riches grow,
Power, glory, love or lust, it's all part of the show!
As autumn leaves turn brown, and tumble to the ground,
You'll surely know the shadow show's in town!
In town!
In town!
The shadow show's in town!
Gather round!
Gather round!
We're coming through your town!
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
Have we got a special treat for you tonight:
Step right up and marvel at the oldest gypsy witch.
Her eyes sewn shut, but she's not blind! She sees your every wish!
You there, what's your name?
I see! Step right in, for,
Something wicked this way comes,
Something in the night!
Something wicked that way went,
What an awful sight!
Something wicked this way comes,
Something isn't right...
Something wicked that way went,
Terror through the night!
Our ways are dark for some,
Our mysteries known to none!
But pay no mind,
The secrets we will
Secrets we will...
Secrets we will...
Secrets we will...
Find!
