Joojoo Voodoo Child

For as long as I can remember
Me madda was de head voodoo club member
She taught me how to make love potion
To mess with der woman emotion

So me meet dis lovely girl 
Seeing ‘er, give me a mighty trill
Me make a love potion I confess
From a piece of ‘er nighty dress

Mix it wit da loose hairs I find spare
From me teet and ‘er underwear
Put a drop a me sista’s joojoo
Me perform de dance from de club voodoo

Throw in me madda’s secret potion
And give me girl as a hand and face lotion
For a year everyting sweet
Me girl an animal love treat

Until one day I notice de hair
Growing on her hands and ‘er face
De one me puck from me teet and her underwear
She look like she not from de human race

‘er back bend, knuckles drag upun de floor
Der woman get a whole lot a chunky
She want me twenty five times a day, me sore
Each day me see her she look more like a monkey

O’ Madda your potion no work, why you lie?
Your son he been abused, he sore and he cry
Dis woman ruin your son life
He wake up to find she is his wife…
