The Devil’s Drink

Take a giant black cauldron
Lit up with Hell’s fire
Then pour in cane toads’ poison
To your heart’s desire

Take the skin of a rattlesnake
Dipped in a lion’s blood
Next a mollusc you will take
Straight from your garden’s mud

Next will go a raven’s wing
Finely-chopped geckos’ tails
Then on top of everything
You add a bunch of snails

Mix them up at midnight
Stir them to a stink
When the pot turns green and bright
You’ll have the devil’s drink
