about

It's all Alexander James Adams' fault. He made a passing comment about a certain outfit worn by the wondrous SJ Tucker, dubbing it what a certain Hogwarts professor would have worn in her younger days in London jazz clubs. the outfit has a name, and now it has a song!

lyrics

Deep in London's beating heart
Lies a wall
A locked door it be
If you know the call.

For if the wall steps aside
Be not afraid of what you see
Because the wizard world had opened up
As has the Gryphons Dream (that's right)

You'll find all shapes and sizes
If you go into the dream
But a lady there
Makes the ocean's roar seem tame

You better know what you're after
If you catch her eye
Cause this hot mama
Is just a cat in disguise

Leanin on the bar
Clad in green
With the scent of smoke
And dark, sweet dreams

Step aside fool
She's too much woman for you
She's too much witch for anyone
Who's too afraid to choose

For her path is lined
with rosemary, bittersweet and blood
She'll teach you a thing or two
About a witch's forked tongue

You'll find all shapes and sizes.
If you go into the dream
But a lady there
Makes the ocean's roar seem tame

You better know what you're after
If you catch her eye
Cause this hot mama
Is just a cat in disguise

With a voice as smooth
as a single malt
She purrs, 'you don't belong here'
And you take the floor

She burns you down
brings your spirit to the brink
Then moves your feet into a swing
That only the deepest kiss defeats
Well, aren't you sweet....

The morning finds you
Alone and intact
You look for days but
never find your way back

Because the lady's had her fun
But she has dragons yet to slay
But you know that you'll never
Forget her face

Better hold on tight
Cause she's just a cat in disguise
