Spellbound (Royal Albert Hall 12-09-1988) Songtext
von Siouxsie and the Banshees

From the cradle bars comes a beckoning voice
It sends you spinning, you have no choice

You hear laughter cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning, you have no choice
You hear laughter cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning, you have no choice

Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
We are entranced, spellbound
Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
We are entranced, spellbound

Spellbound, spellbound, oh-oh-oh
Spellbound, spellbound
Spellbound, spellbound

And don′t forget, when your elders forget
To say their prayers
Take them by the legs
And throw 'em down the stairs


When you think your toys have gone berserk
It′s an illusion you cannot shirk
You hear laughter cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning, you have no choice

Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
We are entranced, spellbound
Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
We are entranced, spellbound

Spellbound, spellbound, oh-oh-oh
Spellbound
Spellbound, spellbound
Spellbound, spellbound

Woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah, oh-oh-oh
Woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
We are entranced, entranced, entranced
Dance, dance, dance
