Lyrics
I put a spell on you And now you're mine You can't stop the things I do I ain't lyin'

It's been three hundred years Right down to the day Now the witch is back And there's hell to pay

I put a spell on you And now you're mine!

Hello, Salem! My name's Winifred! What's yours?

I put a spell on you And now you're gone (Gone gone gone, so long!) My whammy fell on you And it was strong (So strong, so strong, so strong!)

Your wretched little lives Have all been cursed 'Cause of all the witches working I'm the worst

I put a spell on you And now you're mine

(Watch out! Watch out! Watch out! Watch out!)

If you don't believe You better get superstitious Ask my sisters "Ooh, she's vicious!"

I put a spell on you... I put a spell on you... Sisters!

Ah say ento pi alpha mabi upendi Ah say ento pi alpha mabi upendi In comma coriyama In comma coriyama Hey, hey, high, high Say bye-bye! Bye bye!
