Poseidon

I was

The King when I

Walked in to the

Tide and

Sang my last

Song for

Poseidon

He called out my

Name and

Then he dragged me

Down and

Told me to

Sit there

Beside him

In a thousand years I’ll be no

More

Like the dust of shells on the sea

Floor

Tell me that you saw some life in

Me

‘Fore I’m at the bottom of the

Sea

Antiqui-

Ties never

Held any

Flame un-

Til I

Arrived in

His Garden

Then I broke

Down and I

Begged for his

Bowl that

I might yet

Deserve his

Pardon

In a thousand years I’ll be no

More

Like the dust of shells on the sea

Floor

Tell me that you saw some life in

Me

‘Fore I’m at the bottom of the

Sea

I’m not a stranger

I’m not a stranger to you

I’m not a stranger, am I?

I’m not a stranger to you
