Alexian is best known for "It's Cool to Be a Witch" which premiered in 1992 on "The Mother, The Magick, The Music" (remixed for CD in 2000). He grew up in the Missouri Ozarks but now resides not far from from DisneyWorld outside of Orlando, FL, where he leads the Twisted Oak coven (belonging to the Alexandrian tradition, of course). His performing credits include having appeared as one of the hostages in the movie "Passenger 57".
Alexian has his own Video Channel on YouTube, and you absolutely must see the video he has put together for his "It's Cool to Be a Witch" song with clips from the numerous TV shows featuring witches from Bewitched, Charmed, W.I.T.C.H. and other similar shows.
His official blogspot is at http://lordalexian.blogspot.com. He is president of the Earth Tones Studio Pagan recording label. His MySpace page can be found at http://www.myspace.com/lordalexian.

2. When those unsightly warts begin to appear
They get in the way of your secret career
Here’s some advice from me to you
Annihilate ‘em, macerate ‘em, whatever you do
Hop over to the corner drug and Acme tell

3. Yeah, if you see us walkin’ down that old boulevard
Introduce yourself, its now very hard
We’re the ones with the smiles on our face
The funky jewelry, crystals, tarot cards in a case

I need some peace of mind, a job, a man! (Ch)
*(go up another half step= D)

A pointy hat and pointy boots
A Cagney wear nothing will cure
