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
	this way comes
	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 deadly wrapped in sugar candy
