We, worshipers, come up to the fane
Cry on some forgotten god's wan
We seem to adore
this inner ours we truly hate
We delved to our ultimate fate
Turned into dust intimate ore
That was the lame shock
To find an unfeathered cock


The mad man seeks the golden egg
He's from Melos
The magic man with elephant leg
No arms for woes


We loved him so our maimed mad god
But in our hills doubts abode
Over the ridge
We cast him fast for sacrifice
And crush the egg and crush the dice
What have we felt on tarnished bridge?
Again the same shock
To find an unfeathered cock


We worshipers dance on the hills
We envision the golden pills
This is no Bacchus tribe
No orgy bribe
For we are so seriously mad and dead
'Til the golden chicken lifts up our head
Again


                                                                                                                                                                  

Until next week

May leek your eyes

And seek your tongues
