Lyrics
like a jester dressed, in a silly gown, something evil came to town, at the darkest hour, in the dead of night, all who'd listen gathered round, from the uninspired, from the tortured sounds, no one noticed what she'd done, by the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes, like a fool possessed, evil grabbed the blade, dripping blood upon the keys, with her cheap disguise, no-one realised, how this jester could deceive, from the uninspired, from the tortured sounds, no one noticed what she'd done, by the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes, from the uninspired, from the tortured sounds, no one noticed what she'd done, time knows the truth, and her lies linger on, by the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes, by the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes, this way comes, this way comes, hush now children, don't you worry, lots of young ones, singing mahler, lies so deady, wrapped in sugar candy
