Something Wicked Lyrics by Nuclear Assault

Something Wicked

1993

[Verse 1]
Here comes the circus now to steal your life away
Catch unwary children at their play
Disturb what was a peaceful island of calm
A storm is coming on the horizon
The traveler begs of you for his words to heed
To fear the evil thing that he precedes
Recurring evil in the autumn times of sin
A mad collection of broken men

[Chorus]
Thunder ripping out across the sky
Draw the lightning out of my mind
By the prickling of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes

[Verse 2]
The house of mirrors is your place of play
Ten thousand faces driving you insane
A carnival of hate now crawling through your mind
A gripping fear that leaves you paralyzed

[Chorus]
Thunder ripping out across the sky
Draw the lightning out of my mind
By the prickling of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Thunder ripping out across the sky
Draw the lightning out of my mind
By the prickling of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes

[Refrain]
Yeah!

[Outro]
Something wicked this way comes
Something wicked this way comes
Something wicked this way comes
Something wicked this way comes
