lyrics

A magic man he came to town to tread the boards once more
He dreamed of all the better times when channels were just four
Whilst wandering the high street before his show began
He viewed two strangers talking and conjured up a plan

Abracadabra , alakazam
Pull the rabbit from the hat
Was it this card in your hand?
Wave the wand, now count with me, 1, 2, 3
Now that's what I call magic, there's nothing up my sleeve

Bruised and battered by rings of tradition
Scarred to the soul by the past
Hearts secured with a padlock
keys thrown away just in case you ask
It was magic that bought us together
Serendipity some would say
Two strangers collide in the heart of mankind
Conjured up on the 23rd day

Abracadabra , alakazam
Pull the rabbit from the hat,
Was it this card in your hand?
Wave the wand, now count with me, 1, 2, 3
Now that's what I call magic, there's nothing up my sleeve

In the season of goodwill and kindness
Comes a story of heartwarming love
Sliding doors you could say could have altered the way
But for the magic man there in the room
From 74 to 92
His act would mesmerize
But he had one last trick up his sleeve
Before his sad demise

Abracadabra , alakazam
Pull the rabbit from the hat
Was it this card in your hand?
Wave the wand, now count with me, 1, 2, 3
Now that's what I call magic, there's nothing up my sleeve
Now that's what I call magic, there's nothing up my sleeve

A magic man he came to town to tread the boards once more
He dreamed of all the better times when channels were just four
Whilst wandering the high street before his show began
He viewed two strangers talking and conjured up a plan
