Lyrics
Intro
Mm-hmm what's been going on
(Mmm)
Yeah for so long so so long
Verse 1: Johnny Cash
Wide blue water stretches thin
You pull the travelers right in
Setting a trap
Feeding them lunch till their spirits snap
Pre-Chorus
Look at them crawling
Look at them stall
Hear them calling
From the back of the hall
Chorus
Oh Circe you look so grand
Standing on the salt and sand
Transforming those sailors to swine
Changing their hearts and their minds
Beauty with a wand in hand
Queen of a jagged land
Turning every sailor into swine
Drawing a permanent line
Verse 2: Johnny Cash
The sails are ragged and the crew is thin
While Ulysses counts his luck again
Waiting for a sign
Left in a cage by the oak and pine
Pre-Chorus
Look at them crawling
Look at them stall
Hear them calling
From the back of the hall
Chorus
Oh Circe you look so grand
Standing on the salt and sand
Transforming those sailors to swine
Changing their hearts and their minds
Beauty with a wand in hand
Queen of a jagged land
Turning every sailor into swine
Drawing a permanent line
[[Bridge] Both]
Bread and honey
Wild and sunny
Sweet and funny
But it cost them every dime
Stuck inside a sty of time
Stuck inside a wall of slime
Instrumental Solo
Chorus
Oh Circe you look so grand
Standing on the salt and sand
Transforming those sailors to swine
Changing their hearts and their minds
Beauty with a wand in hand
Queen of a jagged land
Turning every sailor into swine
Drawing a permanent line
Post-Chorus
Piglets in the sun
Hiding from everyone
Run piggie run
Run piggie run
(Run run)
Chorus
Oh Circe you look so grand
Standing on the salt and sand
Transforming those sailors to swine
Changing their hearts and their minds
Beauty with a wand in hand
Queen of a jagged land
Turning every sailor into swine
Drawing a permanent line
