“Witch’s Spell” by AC/DC

On the surface it would appear that AC/DC’s “Witch’s Spell” is literally about the singer visiting a witch, i.e. a soothsayer. And whereas he comes off as someone who is addicted to having his fortune read, at the same time he seems to be warning others against falling into such a lifestyle. That is to say that he being “caught in a witch’s spell” is metaphorically indicative of a reliance he has developed on said individual. And the way he apparently depicts the scenario is as one which is not only costing him in terms of his mental wellbeing but also, according to the second verse at least, monetarily.
