Wizard of Darkness

Phil R Crider 1970 (Shawnee ok)



You were my friend my name is the wizard . Known to some as the great white blizzard.
When I first lived nobody knew.
When the law found out I was already Through
 I entered the business without a thought
Of what could happen if I was caught
My little white games were nothing but waste
So soft so deadly so bitter with taste
I'll make a man Shabby that once dress Nice
And take a man'sprod and melt it like ice
I'm the wizard of crime , the prince Of corruption
I'll capture your soul and cause it's destruction
I'm not just a wizard a god to behold
More treasure than diamonds, more precious gold.
So if you wish to hear more of the things I can do
Of the women I delighted and the man slowed.
I'll cause a good husband to cast out his wife
And send a greedy pusher to prison for life
I'll make a schoolboy forget his books
and cause a woman to forget her Looks
I'll pick you up put you under my wing
You dare to defy me , I who am king
You Toss, and you turn but still you can't sleep
You wake in the morning all trembly and weak
You searched in the night for simply a sparkle
But you'll never find it, Four I m
THE WIZARD OF DARKNESS.         by P.R Crider
