Wrote this one in practice last week. It's inspired by my interest in Cryptozoology, and various esoteric and spiritual matters (and the book 'Nothing in This Book is True But It's Exactly How Things Are)..................
Is there something percolating in the regolith on Mercury?
Do philanthropic Nephilm roam free across the galaxy?
Are alien spacecraft over desert sands?
Illuminati with the masterplan!
Atop a pyramid the setting sun,
Apocalypse come the millennium!
Venusian temples plan the fate of Earth.
Protecting masters from the planet's birth.
CHORUS
Hey now! What's that wry smile?
I give you answers, you say "Myth is a lie!"
Are all the answers in the Kraken's den?
Or in the White House with the Lizard Men?
A Samsquamch dining in a camping ground.
The mothman beats his wings without a sound.
With Chupacabra down in Mexico,
The Loch Ness Monster finds a welcome home.
On Himalayan peaks packed tight with snow,
The Yeti dines on wild mountain goat.
Hey now! What's that wry smile?
I give you answers, you say "Myth is a lie!"
Are all the answers in the Kraken's den?
Or in the White House with the Lizard Men?
Is your Merkaba working up to speed?
Inter-dimensional tonality.
Romanian victims of Lycanthropy,
Await the potions made of Hydra's teeth.
I've seen a Chinese dragon eat the sun,
The Beast of Bodmin eat an Englishman
Hey now! What's that wry smile?
I give you answers, you say "Myth is a lie!"
Are all the answers in the Kraken's den?
Or in the White House with the Lizard Men?
I know Samsquamch is meant to be Sasquatch, but it's a Trailer Park Boys reference. Let me know what you think. I'm really getting back into writing lyrics again. At first I was led a bit too much by the previous vocalist's efforts and so the lyrical content of earlier stuff is a bit more aggressive. Now I'm having a lot more fun playing around with different ideas. That song I wrote that was inspired by Tim has been most people's favourite so far when we've played live.
The broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying. These people know only too well how to use falsehood for the basest purposes... Adolf Hitler
