[English]

Those fingers in my hair

That sly come hither stare

That strips my conscience bare

It's witchcraft

And I've got no defense for it

The heat is too intense for it

What good would common sense for it do?

'Cause it's witchcraft

Wicked witchcraft

And although I know it's strictly taboo

When you arouse the need in me

My heart says, "Yes, indeed" in me

Proceed with what your leading me to

It's such an ancient pitch

But one I wouldn't switch

'Cause there's no nicer witch than you

'Cause it's witchcraft

That crazy witchcraft

And although I know it's strictly taboo

When you arouse the need in me

My heart says, "Yes, indeed" in me

Proceed with what your leading me to

It's such an ancient pitch

But one that I would never switch

'Cause there's no nicer witch than you
