My Voodoo Doll

Her skin is rough white cloth

Any moment, she can fall apart

She has thousands of colourful pins

Sticking out of her heart


Used for worrisome purposes

A form of dangerous revenge

Just stick a pin in and wish

And you’ll never see your foe again


Little voodoo doll, hanging up so high

You were once a child’s play toy

You hold the most power in the world

The pain you cause, do you enjoy?


Dolly so pale, dolly so calm, I need a favour

I must stick a pin right through your heart

And make the most gruesome wish

If you prefer, I can throw a few darts


Dear voodoo doll, all I ask of you is this

As soon as I stick the pin, make her writhe in pain

Make her regret everything she has done

That’s hurt me and left me crying in the rain


I understand it’s wrong, and it never will be right

But for now you’re my precious pearl

And you’ll do as I write, no matter the result

Now I’ll stick the pin in you, my dear voodoo girl
