Whispers, potions, puppet with needles
Whispers, potions, puppet with needles

Black night, right time
It’s all about, it’s voodoonight
Can’t you feel it
Strangers surround the voodoospell
But you saw them close your mind
Don’t listen
’cause big Zombie makes a night of it
We’re all here and break the spell
Don’t follow him
Big Zombie seeks a bride tonight

Voodoonight
Voodoonight

Whispers, potions, puppet with needles
Whispers, potions, puppet with needles

Witchcraft, magic
Odd songs to hear, it’s voodoonight
Does it haunt you
The fatefull wish of voodoospell

Voodoonight
Voodoonight
Voodoonight
Voodoonight
Voodoonight
