It's Alright Ma, It's Only Witchcraft

Richard Thompson

Looking through the window 
To see which way the wind blows 
It seems as though a hurricane is due today 
Sunny on the outside 
Stormy on the inside 
Stormy weather's always best for making hay 

In comes everlasting 
Looks like he's been fasting 
With his friends in a den with director's robe 
Like a bandoliero 
With his cigarillo 
Robs the rich, robs the rest, brings it all back home 

Please don't get us wrong, man 
This is just a song, man 
No matter what we say 
This is the season 
Stormy weather's on the way 
This is the season 
Stormy weather's on the way 
You better start worrying, witchcraft's here to stay 

In blows snow white 
The dwarves are kind of off-white 
The vision's his decision so they're out of luck 
Associates are reeling 
The wallpaper is peeling 
He doesn't see the paperwork that's come unstuck 

Please don't get us wrong, man 
This is just a song, man 
No matter what we say 
This is the season 
Stormy weather's on the way 
This is the season 
Stormy weather's on the way 
You better start worrying, witchcraft's here to stay 

In comes Saville 
Had his fill of travel 
Grabbed a bite on the flight, just touched down today 
Looking drawn and haggard 
Through the door he staggered 
With a sound that he found over Frisco way 

Please don't get us wrong, man 
This is just a song, man 
No matter what we say 
This is the season 
Stormy weather's on the way 
This is the season 
Stormy weather's on the way 
You better start worrying, witchcraft's here to stay
