The Hermit - Protomartyr

Sound the alarm

Sky’s a swarm

Not in my house

Stabled up

Leave with my books

Do I escape?

Maybe I leave?

Ride out?

I don’t think so

Milky eyes upstairs

Should I tell them to bug?

Plan an escape

See where they go?

Follow them down

To where they can see

Ride out?

I don’t think so

They lie, they lie, they lie, they lie

They lie, they lie, they lie, they lie

In the same year the King of France

Made peace with Swiss

A monster was born in Germany

With a head in the middle of its stomach

That took food just like the other

They lie, they lie, they lie, they lie

They lie, they lie, they lie, they lie

Everyone’s with cupidity here

Engendered to the sea

With an eye in the middle of the forehead

Liver upside down

And I?

Ride out?

I don’t think so

They lie, they lie, they lie, they lie

They lie, they lie, they lie, they lie

Ride out

I summon the cull

And it’s coming around

There’s a knot in the sky

And it’s going down

And I don’t wanna leave

Think I’ll stay

Ride out?

I don’t think so
