Lyrics
We sailed on, though sick at heart,
Heavy rowing broke the slaves,
On the sixth day, the sun didn’t rise,
As we headed from the east,
Then we came upon, the land of Laistrygones,
Horrendous legendary fiends,
These residents, an old children’s myth,
The flesh of human men they eat,
BLOODBATH,
SKIN REAPERS,
SLAUGHTER,
MEAT GATHERERS,
CANNIBAL,
MASSACRE!!!
The harbors’ ingress, a narrow precipice,
All the boats steered themselves in,
I tied my ship, to a rock beyond,
The entrance to this bordered niche,
Three scouts we’re sent, on reconnaissance,
What abides beyond these cliffs?
At Artakia’s stream, they met a giant dame,
The daughter of King Antiphates,
The towering palace, a lofty keep,
The gruesome queen, stands 50 feet,
She called her king, to greet his guests,
Ripped one in two and ate the rest,
The terrifying king cried out…
ARISE! Barbaric Laistrygones!
Our meat has come to us,
Tonight we gnaw on humans,
Swarms of them came, a lawless giant guild,
Hurling rocks from the cliffs,
A violent roar, from the din of screams,
Amid my fleet as men we’re killed,
Spearing men like fish, to my astonishment,
Stacking bodies on a stick,
We sailed on, though sick at heart,
Barely thwarting perishment,
BLOODBATH,
SKIN REAPERS,
SLAUGHTER,
MEAT GATHERERS,
CANNIBAL,
MASSACRE!!!
