Lyrics
[Chorus]
It really was no miracle
What happened was just this
The wind began to switch
The house, to pitch
And suddenly the hinges started to unhitch
Just then, the Witch, to satisfy an itch
Went flying on her broomstick, thumbing for a hitch
[Verse 1]
And oh, what happened then was rich
The house began to pitch
The kitchen took a slitch
It landed on the Wicked Witch in the middle of a ditch
Which was not a healthy situation for the Wicked Witch
[Verse 2]
The house began to pitch
The kitchen took a slitch
It landed on the Wicked Witch in the middle of a ditch
Which was not a healthy situation for the Wicked Witch
Who began to twich
And was reduced to just a stitch
Of what was once a Wicked Witch
