Story Behind The Song

My co-author Pam Stewart brought the idea of a story/song about the magician, Crispin'. After years of playing with the idea and various tunes it finally came to fruition in its current form. Some say he is crazed... perhaps...

Song Description

Mystical tune of the real life magician, Crispin'. An illusionist of the highest degree who mesmerized crowds for years. Upon his final show, he disappeared. Never to be seen again.

Lyrics

Crispin from seclusion airs his guise
With allusions dares tonight
To presume his fate, for you
He'll prestidigitate
Here stands, for his final show, a man
No one seems to know, Crispin
Some say he is crazed perhaps
But you will be amazed,
They call him Crispin
Voila
He appears on stage like magic
From another age and rush
The crowd calls for more, they hush
When they feel his power soar
When They feel it soar
They call him Crispin
They call him Crispin
He allures you, with his magic wand as he conjures
Strange phenomenon, the people
How they ohh'd and ahh'd
Now cripsin
They thought that he was God
Crispin
And now his last eerie plight he will vanish
From your very sight, he summons
forth this smoky screen and crispin
Will never more be seen
Crispin crispin crispin
