The Evil Eye
My dizzy spells.
My aching shell.
My dire self has found a home.
I cannot laugh.
I cannot smile.
I cannot wait to be alone.
A drop of oil onto my soil i swear to God I'm not a fool.
A few magic words and I am through.
I cast an evil eye.
I spit my name along the truth.
I caught the evil eye off you.
My mother wakes.
My father shakes.
My gypsy waits to hear the news.
I mustn't lay.
I mustn't sway.
I mustn't dream of the accused.
A drop of oil onto my soil I swear to God I'm not a fool.
A few magic words and I am through.
I cast an evil eye.
I spit my name along the truth.
I caught the evil eye off you.
Remember when we're dead.
Remember all that's said.
I break a sweat to my driest breath.
My neighbors left a box of prunes.
I cannot eat.
I cannot drink.
If I could weep I'd weep for you.
A drop of oil onto my soil I swear to God I'm not a fool.
A few magic words and I am through.
I cast an evil eye.
I spit my name along the truth.
I caught the evil eye off you.
Remember when we're dead.
Remember all that's said.
Remember your beads & thread.
Remember don't forget.
