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
