Taboo, voodoo
Taboo, voodoo
Taboo, voodoo (It's working)

Taboo, voodoo (It's working)

A man in a trenchcoat
Once gave me a note
Saying come by my house if you please
That ain't all
He was big and small
And had eyes that could warm and freeze
He looked almost dead
I was afraid that
He was crazy or from some other place
But he looked at me cooly
Sure did fool me
When he vanished without a trace

It was taboo, voodoo
Yoo hoo, working on my mind
It was taboo, voodoo
It had me laughing and crying all the time
Taboo, it's working
Taboo, it's working
I considered the conditions
Dismissed my suspicions
Tried to knock softly on his door
Oh, you see, but when it opened wide
I did not believe my eyes
He was a teeny, tiny spot on the floor
It was dark as midnight
Then I saw this light
Leading me on like a hand
Then something beside me
Said that it was here to guide me
Into another land

It was taboo, voodoo
Yoo hoo, working on my mind
It was taboo, voodoo
It had me laughing and crying all the time
Taboo, it's working
Taboo, it's working

Time stopped, eyes popped
I gasped when I saw things bright and clear
I was walking on raindrops
Just laughing, crying nonstop
By the fumes that filled the air
I awakened to water
Someone said my disorder
Would take a lifetime to cure
"Oh, you see she's mad as a hatter"
No, but that just didn't matter
'Cos I had been there before
It was taboo, voodoo
Yoo hoo, working on my mind
It was taboo, voodoo
It had me laughing and crying all the time
Taboo, it's working
Taboo, it's working
