Oingo Boingo Witch S Egg Lyrics

When I turned 12 papa said
Little woman better get yourself a wife
Cuz you're too mean for a man so clean up your life
And if she's the devil you know she'll be your friend.

When I turned 13 I spat in my papa's eye
Took off to find my man cuz I couldn't find a wife
And I spread evil in a lot of towns
I couldn't find a man to lay me down
They were so busy , I don't know what they were doin'
But they still couldn't pin me down

So I grew up lonesome knowing there'd be no man
A woman to get me going through this life
Cuz I was hatched out of the witch's egg and

Doomed to fly high
Like a crane with no brains
I lay down with the devil and his side kick mankind
But something called lovin' left me hungry inside
So I went to the lord and asked him for more
Than what this world could offer
I lay down with him and I had to grin
Cuz he was shyer than thouer

Now thanks to the lord I've been set free
My lover is the trade winds that take me out to sea
My life is like nobody else's there's only one of me
Cuz I was hatched out of a witch's egg
Doomed to fly high
Like a crane with no brains.
