70s music witchy woman
Raven hair and ruby lips
Sparks fly from her fingertips
Echoed voices in the night
She's a restless spirit on an endless flight
Woo hoo, witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo hoo, witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye
She held me spellbound in the night
Dancing shadows and firelight
Crazy laughter in another room
And she drove herself to madness with a silver spoon
Woo hoo, witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo hoo, witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye
Well, I know you want a lover
Let me tell you, brother
She's been sleeping in the devil's bed
And there's some rumours going round, someone's underground
She can rock you in the night-time 'til your skin turns red
Woo hoo, witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo hoo, witchy woman

- From Somewhere In from Texas Actually everyone here has it wrong lol. The silver spoon definitely refers to the woman’s husband who was brought up in privilege. And sleeping in the devil’s bed is about him too as he liked to imply he was Illuminati. They eventually divorced over it….Henley had involvement but the woman is not someone anyone would know and to protect offspring they shall not be named. I knew that silver spoon.

ruby lips(after you inject heroin you lips go blue)
Sparks fly from her finger tips(lighting a lighter to cook heroin in a spoon)
Echoed voices in the night(after you inject heroin your eardrums buzz, echoing)
She's a restless spirit on an endless flight(heroin addiction never ends)
Woo hoo, witchy woman(heroin loves as a woman)
See how high she flies(chasing that black majic)
Woo hoo, witchy woman(I'd do anything for heroin)
She got the moon in her eye(high into the night)
She held me spellbound in the night(withdrawals bring desperation)
Dancing shadows and firelight(pins and needles)
Crazy laughter in another room(echoes from a shot.buzz buzz buzz)
And she drove herself to madness with a silver spoon(the fear of withdrawals will make you do mad things)
Woo hoo, witchy woman(heroin loves as a woman)
See how high she flies(chasing that black majic)
Woo hoo, witchy woman(I'd do anything for heroin)
She got the moon in her eye(high into the night)
She held me spellbound in the night(withdrawals bring desperation)
Well, I know you want a lover(if only you could keep a healthy relationship with heroin)
Let me tell you, brother(it ain't gonna happen)
She's been sleeping in the devil's bed(she will never love you like your hoping)
And there's some rumours going round, (she a cheating bitches, morning brings sickness)
someone's underground(all junkies ever)
She can rock you in the night-time 'til your skin turns red(she leads you to death, but or prison)
Woo hoo, witchy woman(heroin loves as a woman)
See how high she flies(chasing that black majic)
Woo hoo, witchy woman(I'd do anything for heroin)
She got the moon in her eye(high into the night)

Reviews for "The Russian Mascot's Role in Shaping National Identity"
1. John - 2/5 stars - The Russian mascot world cup was a huge disappointment for me. The mascots were unoriginal and lacked creativity. They all looked like generic cartoon characters without any connection to Russian culture. I expected to see mascots that represented the rich history and traditions of Russia, but instead, we got characters that could have been from any country. Overall, it was a missed opportunity to showcase the unique aspects of Russian culture through creative and memorable mascots.
2. Sarah - 1/5 stars - I found the Russian mascot world cup incredibly boring and forgettable. The mascots lacked personality and charm, making it hard to get excited about them. They seemed like afterthoughts rather than the stars of the show. Additionally, the design of the mascots was uninspiring, with generic animal characters that failed to capture the magic and spirit of a world cup event. I wouldn't recommend attending this event if you're looking for memorable and enjoyable mascot performances.
3. Alex - 3/5 stars - The Russian mascot world cup was just okay for me. While I appreciate the effort put into creating a diverse range of mascots, I found them to be lacking in uniqueness. Most of them followed the same formula of cute and colorful animal characters, which became repetitive and predictable after a while. I wish there had been more variety in terms of character design and representation of different cultural aspects of Russia. Overall, it was an average experience that could have been more exciting with better mascot choices.
4. Emily - 2/5 stars - As a fan of mascots, I was really disappointed with the Russian mascot world cup. The mascots lacked charm and seemed to blend together, making it hard to differentiate one from the other. They all had similar designs and lacked memorable features that would make them stand out. The performances and interactions with the audience were also underwhelming, resulting in a lackluster experience. I was hoping for more creativity and excitement, but unfortunately, this event fell short in delivering that.
