The Wicked Witches Song by Clare Bevan. I m making witch spells, Give-you-all-an-itch spells, Stir the steamy cauldron with a monster Bone, I m making mean spells, Slithery and green spells, Turn you into a lizard on a slimy stone. I m making cat spells, Dangle-like-a-bat spells, Swish you on a broomstick through the Inky sky, I m making shark spells, Dangerous and dark spells, Give you all a nightmare til you scream And cry.
