Double, double toil and trouble

Double, double toil and trouble;

Fire burn and caldron bubble.

Fillet of a fenny snake,

In the caldron boil and bake;

Eye of newt and toe of frog,

Wool of bat and tongue of dog,

Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting,

Lizard's leg and howlet's wing,

For a charm of powerful trouble,

Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

Double, double toil and trouble;

Fire burn and caldron bubble.

Cool it with a baboon's blood,

Then the charm is firm and good.

Double Double Toil and Trouble

An otherwise pretty girl with an unusually long or big nose. A witch.

Taken from a scene in Macbeth in which three witches are chanting:

Double, double toil and trouble
fire burn and cauldron bubble

"She's looking a little double double toil and trouble in those new MySpace pics."
