Orpheus:
Back in the beginning
There used to be a woman and a man
I don't know how the world will end
But that's how it began
King of silver, king of gold
And everything glittering under the ground
Hades was king of oil and coal
And the riches that flow
Where those rivers are found
For half of the year with Persephone gone
His lonliness moved in him, crude and black
He thought of his wife in the arms of the sun
And jealously fueled him and fed him and filled him
With doubt that she'd ever come
Dread that she'd never come
Doubt that his lover would ever come back
Singing la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
King of mortar, king of bricks
The river Styx was a river of stones
And Hades laid them high and thick
With a million hands that were not his own
And a million feet that fell in line
And stepped in time with Hades' step
And a million minds that were just one mind
And the river's mouth was a million mouths
And they sang so loud
That they drowned out the sound of the
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la...
