Macbeth Lyrics

INTRO

DOUBLE, DOUBLE, DOUBLE, TOIL AND TROUBLE, FIRE BURN AND CAULDRON BUBBLE WHEN SHALL WE THREE MEET AGAIN - IN THUNDER, LIGHTNING, OR IN RAIN? WHEN THE HURLY-BURLY'S DONE, WHEN THE BATTLE'S LOST AND WON THAT WILL BE ERE SET OF SUN WHERE THE PLACE? - UPON THE HEATH AND THERE TO MEET WITH MACBETH

VERSE 1

TO MACBETH AND BANQUO CAME THE THREE SISTERS WEIRD MACBETH THEY MET WITH SORRY TALES THAT WERE STRANGE TO HIS EARS "THANE OF CAWDOR, KING TO BE" - SO WENT THEIR PROPHESY

VERSE 2

THAT WRETCHED NAME CAWDOR SEEMED TO BREED TREACHERY THE THANE THAT CAME BEFORE, AND MACBETH DID AGREE BY DUNCAN'S DEATH ALL OF THE LAND WOULD FALL TO ACHING HANDS

BRIDGE

DOUBLE, DOUBLE, DOUBLE, TOIL AND TROUBLE, FIRE BURN AND CAULDRON BUBBLE BE BLOODY BOLD AND RESOLUTE AND NEVER FEAR DEATH FOR NO MAN OF WOMAN BORN SHALL EVER HARM MACBETH A GUILTY AND TORMENTED SOUL, SO DEEPLY STEEPED IN SIN THE GORY GLORY'S BLOODY STORY MAULS MACBETH WITHIN DREADFUL FRIGHT - GRISLY SIGHT - SLEEPLESS AND TORMENTED NIGHTS MACBETH'S ILL-GOTTEN GAINS ARE PLAGUED BY NIGHTMARE'S SAVAGE BITE
VERSE 3

WITCHES' WORDS RECALLED - SOOTHED HIS PAIN, BROUGHT HIM CALM MACBETH BELIEVED HIMSELF TO BE FREE FROM ALL HARM HE WAS YET TO MEET THE MAN WHO WOULD MAKE HIM DESPAIR HIS CHARM

OUTRO

DUNSINANE'S BATTLE WAS OVER AND WON ALMOST BEFORE BOLD MACBETH WAS UNDONE MACDUFF TOLLED THE KNELL OF MACBETH'S COMING DOOM WHEN HE WAS UNTIMELY RIPPED FROM THE WOMB CHARGED WITH A TASK LONG BEFORE HE WAS BORN MACDUFF WAS THE ONE NOT OF WOMAN BORN
