Ogre Battle-Queen
Aaaahhh
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, aaahhh
Now, once upon a time, an old man told me a fable
When the piper is gone and the soup is cold on your table
And if the black crow flies to find a new destination
That is the sign
Come tonight
Come to the ogre site
Come to the ogre battle fight
He gives a great big cry and he can swallow up the ocean
With a mighty tongue, he catches flies and the palm of his hand incredible size
One great big eye has to focus in your direction
Now the battle is on, yeah, yeah, yeah
Come tonight
Come to the ogre site
Come to the ogre battle fight
Ah, ah, ah, ah, aaahhh
The ogre men are still inside, the two-way mirror mountain
You gotta keep down right out of sight
You can’t see in, but they can see out
“Ooh, keep a lookout”
The ogre men are coming out from the two-way mirror mountain
They’re running up behind, and they’re coming all about
Can’t go east, ’cause you gotta go south
Ogre men are going home
The great big fight is over
Bugle blow, let trumpet cry
Ogre battle lives forevermore, oh-oh-oh
You can come along
You can come along
Come to ogre battle
Ah, ah, ah, ah, aaahhh

Keys to the Castle-Thee Oh Sees
Artist: Thee Oh Sees
Album: Orc
This parade of candied people
Turns the bend in castle’s steeple
Flood the tower with your body
Fling yourselves from upper belfry
Let’s witness the whole occasion
Piles of bodies fill the garden
Smash the hedgerow with their plummet
Stop with panic, ugly banquet
Floating in the vile moat yeah
Crack their skulls upon the cobbles
Ringing home their lemming’s message
Where Owls Know My Name
Where Owls Know My Name-Rivers of Nihil
And then I wished you away
I lost those memories
Of the days we weren’t
Forsaken. Why don’t we
Just relax our eyes
And fall into a dream
Let it take my mind
Where owls know my name
And it gets colder every day
Lost in eternity’s grasp
Withdrawing further from what we have known
This mentality that we’ve built
It’s breaking down
Still running away from it
You’re still dreaming
Still hoping that there’s something that may be worth seeking
You’ve wasted all that you have been given
Still hoping to find a way to make life worth living
Lost in eternity’s grasp
We’ll find no way to weather the storm
This mentality that we built
Is breaking down
All the same
Every path you take
You remain
Trapped within your shame
Go away far away
Separate from the shame
Lost in eternity’s grasp
Withdrawing further from what we have known
This mentality that we’ve built
It’s breaking down
I brought myself to this place
Where only owls would know me
This reality that I’ve built
Is an empty space
The Enchanter-Robert Plant & The Strange Sensation
She moves through the mountains and down to the sea
She sings in celebration with her piper for me
She’s leading the man who’s beating the drum
Love is all around her on the road to the sun
Round, round, moving me round
Round, round the air
She’s lost in conversation with the birds of the air
She’s trading information in a world without fear
She’s fixing up a potion made of laughter and love
And I will follow the enchanter on the road to the sun
Round, round, moving me round
Round, round, round
Oh that the stars will light my way
Oh as my tides dance the ebb and sway
She’s studying the planets and she’s searching for signs
Her eyes promise mystery and her treasure to find
She’s mixing my emotions it’s so easily done
In a league with the enchanter on the road to the sun
Oh that the stars will light my way
Oh as my tides dance the ebb and sway
It’s so very easily done
She moves through the mountains and down to the sea
She sings in celebration with her piper for free
She’s leading the man who’s beating the drum
And love is all around her on the road to the sun

Rush, “Xanadu”
“To seek the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
To break my fast on honey dew
And drink the milk of paradise….”
I had heard the whispered tales
Of immortality
The deepest mystery
From an ancient book. I took a clue
I scaled the frozen mountain tops
Of eastern lands unknown
Time and Man alone
Searching for the lost–Xanadu
Xanadu–To stand within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste anew the fruits of life
The last immortal man
To find the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
Oh, I will dine on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise
A thousand years have come and gone
But Time has passed me by
Stars stopped in the sky
Frozen in the everlasting view
Waiting for the world to end
Weary of the night
Praying for the light
Prison of the lost–Xanadu
Xanadu–held within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste my bitter triumph
As a mad immortal man
Nevermore shall I return
Escape these caves of ice
For I have dined on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise
