Question: is there a metaphor somewhere in the lyrics of the song witchcraft?


Answers: is there a metaphor somewhere in the lyrics of the song witchcraft?
Those fingers in my hair
That sly come hither stare
That strips my conscience bare
Its witchcraft

And Ive got no defense for it
The heat is too intense for it
What good would common sense for it do

cause its witchcraft, wicked witchcraft
And although, I know, its strictly taboo

When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to

Its such an ancient pitch
But one I wouldnt switch
cause theres no nicer witch than you



The entire song is a metaphor. Basically, it's likening his desire to this woman to witchcraft. When someone falls in love/lust, it's like they have no control of themselves or their feelings. Like they're under a spell. So the singer is basically saying they're under the person's control. It's compared to witchcraft because nobody wants to lose control of themselves, and these are both examples of the few things that can make one do so.
