Candle Magick Song

I just saw this great song in an old issue of Green Egg, (Summer '92) credited to a Bill Beattie, editor of Shadowplay... It goes to the tune of "Blowin' in the Wind"...

I figure it is a great offering to the Murphy and Eris aspects of our Ghods, as well as a reminder not to take things TO seriously....

How many robes can a Witch ignite
While dancing to close to the flame?
How many words from the Grimm Brothers' tales
Can you really expect to "reclaim"?
And how many chants fall flat as a tack
When you mispronounce each Sacred Name?

CHORUS:

The candles, my friend, are blowin' out again,
The candles are blowin' out again.

How many times can the incense go wild
And fireman break down your door?
How many times can athames get dropped
And spear peoples feet to the floor?
Yes, and how many times can you brandish your wand,
And whack the HP on the jaw?

CHORUS:

How many years can you do the same rite
And still get the words mostly wrong?
And how many spells of "Hereditary Craft"
Quote verses from Erica Jong?
And how many times can your Sabbat Great Rite
Last less than half a minute long?

CHORUS:

Blessed Be...
