Lyrics Sorcerer's Apprentice - The Del-Vikings

This is the story of a crazy caper
It started with a funny little ad in the paper
The ad said "I need an ambitious young man
You better come just as quick as you can"
I jumped into my car, I got there in a hurry
Saw a little old man lookin' mighty, mighty wary
He took a look at me and shouted "Fiddle-dee-dee
I got me a new employee"

So now I'm the sorcerer's apprentice
I got the craziest gig in town
My work is really play in a voodoo kinda way
You better think twice before you put me down

The sorcerer, he took me on a guided tour
He told me "Boy, if you study, you'll succeed for sure
Clean that crystal ball and the cauldron too
Make sure my chemicals are ready when the time is due
I'm gonna teach you how to be a magic man like me
'Cause pretty soon I'm headin' for eternity
Before I go you've got to know the way this magic's made
I've got to teach you the tricks of the trade"

So now I'm the sorcerer's apprentice
I got the craziest gig in town
My work is really play in a voodoo kinda way
You better think twice before you put me down

Now there's a little girl who lives right down the street
She's curvy and she's cuddly and she's oh, so sweet
I'm waitin' for the next full moon to shine
Before I make her mine with love potion number nine
And there are one or two guys who used to put me down
A-makin' fun of me and callin' me a clown
They're gonna look mighty funny come next Halloween
It feels funny when your face turns green

So now I'm the sorcerer's apprentice
I got the craziest gig in town
My work is really play in a voodoo kinda way
You better think twice before you put me down

So now I'm the sorcerer's apprentice
Yes, now I'm the sorcerer's apprentice
Oh, now I'm the sorcerer's apprentice
Now I'm the sorcerer's apprentice
