Burn the Witch



I saw her kiss his cheek
I saw him fall in love

I wanted him for mine
Until the end of time

It's all her fault
She looked at him with round green eyes

It's all her fault 
She talks to him with fancy words

It's all her fault
She smiled at him with full red lips

It's all her fault
She makes him laugh using her wit

Stick her in the ducking stool
Baptise her with fire
Drown or burn for all to spurn
Just make her leave my mind

Shake A Tail Feather - She Rocola's Revue

Molly Leigh, Molly Leigh, chase me 'round the apple tree
Molly Leigh, Molly Leigh, Molly Leigh, you can't catch me
Molly Leigh, Molly Leigh, chase me 'round the cemetery
Molly Leigh, Molly Leigh, follow me into the holes I see

Cursed with birth in 1685
That was when I started to die
Cast a hex within my first hour
To turn all the beer and milk sour

Molly Leigh, Molly Leigh, chase me 'round the apple tree
Molly Leigh, Molly Leigh, Molly Leigh, you can't catch me
Molly Leigh, Molly Leigh, chase me 'round the cemetery
Molly Leigh, Molly Leigh, follow me into the holes I see

1746 when I died
My blackbird was buried alive
Alongside me in my north to south grave
East to west for the ones who were saved

Molly Leigh of the Mother Town ~ She Rocola

At the time of recording this song Ben had just moved into his comfy Crouch End crib having left behind his shabby chic Stoke Newington bedsit forever!

On the day, he requested I pick up a packet of Co-codamol on my way over, "if it's no trouble", adding he'd have whichever tipple I required ready and waiting  on arrival.

We nailed the vocals fairly quickly then settled into a cozy, boozy chewing the fat session, always a joy with Ben! He was excited about us making a "pop vid" to accompany the song where I could maybe stride around Highgate Cemetery wearing an old fashioned orthopaedic shoe to emulate his lopsided "jack boots crunching on gravel” backing track. We came up with a lot of ridiculous ideas that day!

Sadly we never made our film but hey ho, we've still got the song...so here it is…

I’d like to dedicate “He Needs Me” to Estelle Riviera. x

 R.I.P Ben Golomstock. x
