Summerisle
LYRICS
A child is missing mister policeman
Come and help us find him if you can
Flying over oceans in your little tin can
Come and help us find the little girl police man
A child is missing mister policeman
Come and help us find him if you can
Flying over oceans in your little tin can
Come and help us find the little girl police man
Noones’s seen her, mister policeman
She’s been missing days or weeks or more
Her mothers saying nothing
And i fear for for the bairn
Well come and help us find the little girl police man
Well come and help us find the little girl police man
Moonlight, dark of the night
The wheel rolls, the apple grows in time
Sunshine, all will be fine
The seed is sown and now it grows ripe
Fall down man-child welcome to summerisle
Fall down on your knees
Fall down man-child welcome to summerisle
The hunger of the gods will be appeased
You’re a stranger mister policeman
Wearing tortured men around your neck
Noone on the island thinks the things that you do
We’ve got our own religion that we’ll show onto you
You are welcome mister policeman
Eat your fill and drink up all you can
Oh venerate fertility, regenerate flaccidity
Come and dip your wick in willow mister policeman
Oh Come and dip your wick in willow mister policeman
Moonlight, dark of the night
The wheel rolls, the apple grows in time
Sunshine, all will be fine
The seed is sown and now it grows ripe
Fall down man-child welcome to summerisle
Fall down on your knees
Fall down man-child welcome to summerisle
The hunger of the gods will be appeased
In the woods
There grew a tree
And a fine tree
Was he
You’re revolted mister policeman
That we teach the children what we do
The nailed man had had his chance
But now his time has come
The trapdoor is shutting now
How fast can you run?
You’re our saviour mister policeman
The game was played and in a way you’ve won
Oh you scream and shout to let you out but what can we do?
The good times will come again now all thanks to you
The good times will come again now all thanks to you
Moonlight, dark of the night
The wheel rolls, the apple grows in time
Sunshine, all will be fine
The seed is sown and now it grows ripe
Fall down man-child welcome to summerisle
Fall down on your knees
Fall down man-child welcome to summerisle
The hunger of the gods will be appeased
Fall down man-child welcome to summerisle
Fall down on your knees
Fall down man-child welcome to summerisle
The hunger of the gods will be appeased
Yeah the hunger of the gods will be appeased
The hunger of the gods will be appeased
