Gorgon's Slave

Down below the galleys where the faring men ate

Lay the granite for the tombs and the tools to carve slate

All the piracy flourished seeking shillings and eight

At the time there was no knowledge of the map of their fate

For at starlight and moonglow there were none to be saved

One digs too deep, he passes treasure to his grave, yeah

In the night they behave

Now they're Gorgon's slave

When the eyes of Medusa stare them into their grave

Yeah, yeah

Let the moondrops fall, hear the screams in the hall

For when there's no one to stand guard

Only future futility to hear their call

It's the beast you may think drives the sane to the brink

Now the Gorgon's suspended the life in them all, yeah

Though they boasted glasses were empty, none there were brave

Couldn't cut from the gut of the Gorgon's slave, yeah

In the night they behave

Now they're Gorgon's slave

When the eyes of Medusa stare them into their grave

They came to take the jewels and eight

Now forever they will wait

But none cut from the gut of the Gorgon's cave, yeah

Frozen down deep in suspended sleep and the mad cries rave

Let the moondrops fall, hear the screams in the hall

When there's no one to stand guard no one is saved

In the night they behave the Gorgon's slave

When the snakes of Medusa tie a leash to the grave, yeah

Alright, alright

In the night they behave now the Gorgon's slave

When the snakes of Medusa tie a leash to the grave

yeah, yeah
