《Lizard》歌词

时长： 05:12

Granny Green was stooped as a windblown branch[00:00:06]

She lived high in the Bramble forest[00:00:12]

Once a fork night if the moon shown right[00:00:19]

She came down to her little village[00:00:25]

She brought blackberries and willow bark[00:00:32]

Mandrake root and mushrooms[00:00:40]

And it was said she spoke the tongue of birds[00:00:45]

And understood the river's whispers[00:00:52]

Now several girls among our town[00:00:58]

By a golden lizard they were bitten[00:01:06]

And those sweet girls lay stiff in their beads[00:01:12]

Like frozen ice upon the branches[00:01:18]

Granny Green mixed a tonic for their ills[00:01:26]

But it was such a bitter tonic[00:01:32]

That all who drink began to dance[00:01:38]

And could not stop their dancing[00:01:45]

But none would danced one sinful step[00:01:52]

If that old crone had not bewitched us[00:01:59]

How we leaped in Princeton cackle[00:02:33]

The whole town of driving mad men[00:02:39]

And so desperate grew some to still their feet[00:02:46]

They dove into the raging river[00:02:53]

Still we danced all day and night[00:02:59]

'Til our fine clothes were torn and ragged[00:03:05]

I'm crying out Oh Lord make us stop[00:03:12]

We danced naked around the chapel[00:03:19]

How granny laughed to see such sin[00:03:27]

There's just water she said in my tonic[00:03:32]

But all cried out she lies she surely lies[00:03:38]

And we chased her deep into the Bramble[00:03:45]

But like before wind she disappeared[00:03:52]

Though we searched round and round the branches[00:03:59]

Rolling in leafs and naked 'neath the trees[00:04:05]

We lost the way back to our village[00:04:12]

But I swear we were all pure of heart[00:04:26]

'Til that old crone did bewitch us[00:04:32]

And I know we will all go home[00:04:39]

When the good Lord returns to save us[00:04:46]
