"The Witches Are Back" is a song sung by the Sanderson Sisters in Hocus Pocus 2, after Becca and Izzy accidentally bring them back to life when they light the Black Flame Candle. They also perform this song during the end credits.
It is a parody of Elton John's "The B*tch is Back", with the lyrics changed to match the theme of the movie, as well as being more family-friendly.
Lyrics[]
Winifred, Sarah, and Mary: Whoo!
Winifred: Now listen up!
We were running wild
And so reviled
Raising cain until we got exiled
But times are changing
Now we're on the attack
Yeah, the spell is gonna hit ya
'Cause the witches are back
(Sarah and Mary: Whoa-oa-oa)
Sisters!
Winifred, Sarah, and Mary: Yeah, the witches, the witches
The witches are back
Winifred: Stone cold sinners as a matter of fact
Mary: I'm a witch
Sarah: I'm a witch
Winifred: But I'm better than you
Watch the way that we fly
The way that you'll die
(Whoa-ho-ho)
Hoo!
Winifred, Sarah, and Mary: Yeah, the witches, the witches
The witches are back
Winifred: Stone cold meanies as a matter of fact
Winifred, Sarah, and Mary: Yeah, the witches
The witches are coming for you
Mary: With the spells that we cast
Winifred: My, this tempo is fast (Sarah: Whoa-oa-oa)
All together now, girls!
Winifred, Sarah, and Mary: Witch, witch
The witches are back
Mary: We're back! (Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo)
Winifred, Sarah, and Mary: Witch, witch
Winifred: Sing it to me!
Winifred, Sarah, and Mary: The witches are back, back
The witch, witch (Winifred: Which witch?)
Winifred, Sarah, and Mary: The witches are back
Winifred: Oooh, we're killing them (Mary: Woooooooh!)
Winifred, Sarah, and Mary: Witch, witch (Winifred: Ha-ha!)
The witches are back, back
The witches are back
