Juniper soup, Lemon candy.
The vittles of witches, oh what a treat.
But they are not good for a mortal to eat.
Rosemary bread, Rosemary bread
Baked by the good witch of Scarpetta Breeze.
Just one big bite will make your head light.
Your cheeks will swell up as though stung by mad bees.
Lavender tea, Lavender tea
Brewed by the good witch of Viola Cay.
One mild sip will make your nose drip
You'll walk in a daze in the moonlight of May.
Juniper Soup, Juniper Soup
Stewed by the good witch of Forrester's Thorn.
One smacking slurp will cause you to burp.
Your belly will roil like waves in a storm.
Lemon Candy, Lemon Candy
Made by the good witch of Sunny Day's Cough
One little suck will make your heart buck
You'll run so fast both your legs will fall off.
Rosemary bread, Lavender tea
Juniper soup, Lemon candy.
The vittles of witches, oh what a treat.
But they are not good for a mortal to eat.
