Sirens of the Sea

Lyrics

Morning came golden like the universe was holding kerosene And Apollo flicked his cigarette All proud and mighty, trying to bluff out Aphrodite with the queens But she always has the bigger bet Like the Sirens of the Sea were singing for me There's no use in hiding that the trident of Poseidon was your crutch Like everything you touched was water Out on the high seas, trying to catch a glimpse of Pisces in the rough But she spit out everything you brought her Like the bells of the St. Marie were ringing for me Like a seaborne symphony was suddenly sounding And our hearts were the timpani quietly pounding
