Oingo Boingo - Witch's Egg Lyrics
When I turned 12 papa said
Little woman better get yourself a wife
Cuz you're too mean for a man so clean up your life
And if she's the devil you know she'll be your friend.
Took off to find my man cuz I couldn't find a wife
And I spread evil in a lot of towns
I couldn't find a man to lay me down
They were so busy , I don't know what they were doin'
But they still couldn't pin me down
So I grew up lonesome knowing there'd be no man
A woman to get me going through this life
Cuz I was hatched out of the witch's egg and
Like a crane with no brains
I lay down with the devil and his side kick mankind
But something called lovin' left me hungry inside
So I went to the lord and asked him for more
Than what this world could offer
I lay down with him and I had to grin
Cuz he was shyer than thouer
Now thanks to the lord I've been set free
My lover is the trade winds that take me out to sea
My life is like nobody else's there's only one of me
Cuz I was hatched out of a witch's egg
Doomed to fly high
Like a crane with no brains.

Oingo Boingo Witch's Egg Comments
I love her facial expressions.
smoking little man is genial :D
Wtf is this?! Completely astounding and mesmerizing.
Herve just chillin' and smokin' a blunt.
Its as if John Waters and David Lynch had a baby.
Someone is thinking that their creepy bad trip is actually a good trip
RelampagoDorado hahaha that's the best explanation of this movie ever
I fucking love this movie
💜💜💜
you: "...and Villechaize being the only actor paid for the film."
in the wiki: "Villechaize kicked his cheque back into the production and even painted sets on weekends."
I love this song ♥
I know Danny Elfman plays the devil and made the soundtrack for this movie but I'm wondering if Oingo Boingo played on the Forbidden Zone Soundtrack
Oingo Boingo is credited as performing on the all the soundtrack music with the exception of the vintage recordings the film uses (Some of These Days, Pico and Sepulvada, etc)
I feel like I caught this on TV when I was around 3 or maybe it was a nightmare
Somebody slap the jew responsible for this.
The music is freaking insane
kinda creepy, but interesting
My friend sent this to me and I loved it!
WHY THE FUCK DID MY FRIEND SEND ME THIS
yeeeesss! my queen
like a crane with no legs... cranes are recognised by their legs... ohh
This is where Ursala came from
No. Divine inspired Ursula.
where can I find the whole movie
The Rocky Horror Show is a pretentious version of this.
LadyLydarth Rocky Horror was released 5 years prior to this film.
Rocky Horror started as a play in 1973 in London, Forbidden Zone was released 1980, I don't think so lol
Latte Cat RHPS the film was released in 1975.
I know. Before it was a film it was a play, I'm saying it goes back even further to 1973.
makes me think of the Nightman
the one defeated by the dayman?
I wrote the music to 'witches egg' --susu wrote the words-- she was the greatest!!! We also wrote a song for 'I never promised you a rose garden'--when she was 'my gal', we wrote over 20 songs---her lyrics are genius, as was she---one of a kind,, a true, soulful arteeeeest!!! I miss you , susu---love, george michalski
George Michalski She was a good friend, I miss her. I loved her writing! Wish she did an album. The catch my soul song she sang is fabulous too.
it's one of my favorite songs from the movie
Who was the duo? The Kipper Kids, right?
@Esteban Rincon Yeah. One of them just died a couple months ago.
It must've been amazing to work on a surreal project like this.
Dem boobies.
That's Susan Tyrrell. From John Huston's Fat City. Amazing.
I don't know how I found this but I'm glad I did?
You should watch the whole movie, it gets much weirder than this
Krowsnest wow i just found this randomly too, it was obviously meant to be as the bits I've watched so far are right up my street, why have i never heard of this.
what is this?
It's in the original post at top
And here we can see Glenn Danzig's mom singing while his dad sits and smokes... which explains a lot about Glenn's singing, lyrics, and well height x'D
Sounds nothing like Glenn. Clean out your ears.
caw caw!

When I turned 12 papa said
Little woman better get yourself a wife
'Cause you’re too mean for a man to clean up your life
And if she’s the devil, you know she’ll be your friend.
When I turned 13 I spat in my papa’s eye
Took off to find my man 'cause I couldn’t find a wife
And I spread-eagled in a lot of towns
I couldn’t find no man to lay me down
They were so busy a-cock-a-doodle-doo-in’
But they still couldn’t nail me down
So I grew up lonesome knowing there’d be no man
Or woman to get me going through this life
'Cause I was hatched out of a witch’s egg
Been doomed to fly high
Like a crane with no legs
I laid down with the devil and his side-kick mankind
But something called lovin’ made me hungry inside
So I went to the lord and I asked him for more
Than what this world could offer
I laid down with him and I had to grin
'Cause he was shyer than a flower
Now thanks to the lord I’ve been set free
My lover is the trade winds that take me out to sea
My life is like nobody else’s
There’s only one of me
'Cause I was hatched out of a witch’s egg
Been doomed to fly high
Like a crane with no legs.
goddamn. goddamnit, woman.
I love this and since there isn't a love button I must comment. Love.
I want this to play at my funeral. :)
FAREWELL, SUSAN!!! a hero of mine
Though her passing brings sadness to all those who loved her, she left us such treasures to remember her by. What a woman!
:( Sad she's gone.
She wrote this weirdo song for herself...
She also dated Fausto -- Hervé Villechaize -- while they were filming.
What a life.
Scix Jeeze, her boobies alone were bigger than Herve'. What a woman!
She was an amazing woman!
