Luyện nghe bài hát Something Wicked This Way Comes

[m/l van

[Part I:

a rare month for boys
When is simple, pure and sweet
And the foolish can overlook
The outside the door

hear a tale of Halloween
And one October not long
Jim Nightshade and Halloway
Would never be quite so anymore

Fury, the seller of lightning rods, foretells the storm
The on in the library, beneath the black'ning sky
Charles sits deep inside, surrounded by his books
A serious, lonely and sad old man youth has passed him by

And Jim and Will
To the carousel
Could set their afire
Could them straight to Hell

[Part II:

Far away, but much too for comfort
Carnival's calliope is
Halloway sits in the darkened
dark thoughts
Son at he doesn't really know
Fifty-four years so very old
Throws the ad in the fire
grow higher

Long after midnight, children
await them, chances to take
Run through the streets to the grounds
Hoping to ride the

Three AM is midnight for the
is a man so close to death
The house of temptation is at
are damned

What's the of a life of virtue?
you don't know certainly can hurt you
Every step he he second-guessed
of regret

Ride's out of order, no one's
Hardly a whisper, hardly a
Thinking that they're alone, but not
Gloved hands encircle, now are caught

III: The Carnival]

Late that the boys returned
Watched the carousel spin
old man into young
Bringing darkness to

Carousel turns and
Years can scorch and time can
Dark's accomplice, age
Now becomes a boy

Jim and stumble in
To whirling world of sin
spins the carousel
Cooger ages, dies and goes to

Mister Dark knows at
That the boys seen too much
As they for the police
He and the witch
For their plan to be

return with the law
Try to tell them what saw
The witch throws her voice and the old, man
to come to life again

The has worked, no one believes the
Tales of the boys have seen
The witch locks they fear her most;
She them a "short sad life for both!"

[Part IV:

Late that night the witch takes to the sky above the
Searching for the boys who know the of the carousel
A black of circus freaks, and led by Mister Dark,
every street for the boys to drag them down to hell

The have seen too much
And now their death be their silence
The freaks have caskets for the little boys who hid
And Mister halts the procession, seeing the librarian,
He asks him who the boys are; with rage as the old man lies

[Part V: The Autumn

that night inside the town's old library
Circled by and evil books
Scouring them for any of knowledge.
Charles, Jim and

A father's son who doesn't his dad
Suddenly he that he had
As he that this old lonely man
Could be they the only hope they

The Carnival has been here times
Its history is found between the
Comes by forty years or so
Since more than two years ago

They feast the sins and fears of men
Promise you just what you and then
When they're through they'll steal your soul
Entomb you in sideshow

And as the church bell
They hear the opening
The boys hide for their
As Mister arrives

[Part VI:

Tearing at his
To take a second
To the wrongs
To again

No

No more as a
Man to old to his son

He the offer down
Not willing to his soul
For what he wants the

Dark
Crushes Charles'
And tells the witch to the man
A taste of death

(old man) your breathing
(old man) your hurt
(old man) See you're
(old man) Stop heart

[Part VII:

(Halloway) ten lifetimes closer to
(Somehow) the courage to laugh
(Laughter) in the witch's face
(Laughter) burning her wicked
(Standing), knowing he's her back
(Smiling), knowing the is now
(Striding) purposefully the street
(Knowing) that he can them somehow
(Mister Dark) leads the boys into the
(Will to be) into a toy for freaks
(Nightshade) to be his for life
(After the) carnival's over
(Carnival): one last to see
(Shoot the witch): gypsy who die
(Mister Dark) gazes out the crowd for a
(Volunteer): to give it a try

(Halloway) calls out from in the crowd
(Mister Dark) cannot believe his
(Halloway) his hand picks up the gun
(To steady it) he calls for the of his son

[Part Departures]

Far away, trapped in the mirror
The town calls his name
And Will the spell
The dust witch upon his head

Halloway: and son
as one
As Mister Dark them the bullet and
Charles carves a crescent moon

Mister stares at the bullet
He yet under stand
The of what Charles has done
So he the game proceed

But the moon he carved isn't a at all
his smile the bullet carries
And totem finds it's way
To the heart

The gun and the
Witch knows and now is dead!

Chaos spreads, and and Will
Run to the maze to Jim
walks in
Confronted by reflections of a million men
back and making him older
A full of regrets
A man who never his son
A man whose were never done

Halloway from
The of shattered mirrors
He picks up his son and with him
Across the grounds

Nightshade still upon the
Charles and help him down
Another boy saying
Dark's gone
And the four of us must give

Halloway looks at the young boy
He sees him for he is
Mister made younger again by the
Power of the

Charles the boy up
Holds him and feels his hatred
And with grave
his heart fill with love
for his and his son
And returns the boy's hate with love and it
courses
Dark's body
And he and dies

As the carnival tents
The three of spring
laughing back to
Two and one middle-aged man
No longer so old as he thought

Far away but too close for comfort
Far but much too close for comfort
