The Cramps - Voodoo Idol lyrics

Voodoo voodoo
Voodoo voodoo

The night came down, the sky turned black
The jungle drum beat, the natives back
The voodoo idol stepped forward
From the crowd lightning split the sky and
Thunder shook the ground

He had coal black hair and laser eyes
His pale white skin against
The darkened skies
Seemed to say that the wind was at his call
Then a silence fell as the
Idol said nothing at all

And then he raised his hands
The night stood still
He looked around at the crowd until
The voodoo doctor gave him a guitar
Then they all bowed down in the
Light of the voodoo star
And it sounded like this

And there he passed through their hungry lips
His holy blessed sacrament
He spoke no words but they
All knew what it meant
Yeah, he rolled on the ground and
He danced while reading his hands

Yeah and then he rolled his eyes
And sang from his heart
The jungle creatures from near and far
Came to lose their minds under his spell
And then what happened next to this
Day no one will tell

He sang voodoo, voodoo voodoo, voodoo
Voodoo, voodoo voodoo, voodoo
Voodoo, voodoo voodoo, voodoo
Voodoo, voodoo he sang voodoo, voodoo
Voodoo, voodoo voodoo, voodoo
