Zanzibar II : Sasha and Sebastian

from Minuteman for the Moment by Look What I Did

/

lyrics

The life, the throng, the merriment
The bustle is perfect for thieves
The footfall, the cobbles
Aroma of cooking, they eat

They giggle they speak
The market's alive in the sun
Sebastian pays notice his reflection
And loses his eyes in the troth

The skies untouched by the vultures
The wind lay an anxious mystique
The puzzling calmness was perfect for sneak
The shadows, the sunshine, the teeth, the gnashing

Sebastian feels something is wrong
The knowing shade makes his
Somethingness hide in a hole

What the hell is happening here
Zanzibar just can't be far
Watch for him
Zanzibar, not too far, Zanzibar

Sleepy, sleepy, sleepy
Here in my lenins, cat curl a kitten up
Sleepy, sleepy, sleepy
Just for a minute, someone will wake me up

Sasha rests in her daybed
A soon to be victim of sneak
The darkness, the thief
The hiding, the lenins
The curtains concealing the sneak
The breezes, a buzzsaw, the teeth

Concealing the pirate and smirk

He's eyeing her mane on the pillow
The resting, the giggles, the dream
A heartbeat for nervous to sneak
The curtain aside for a peak
The Sasha, the ether, the squiek

Sebastian returns, finding no Sasha at home

What the hell is happening here
Zanzibar has gone too far
After him
Zanzibar, gone too far, Zanzibar

My sleep, peace free me from lenins
His cold touch leading me
He's stolen me away in the night
And torn my nurturing gown

Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring the bell, the bell
Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring the bell, the bell
Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring the bell, the bell
Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring the bell, the bell

A foul poison corrupteth our cup
Let the swashbuckler taint the lake
With the blood of our skinned manes no more

He snatcheth forth from us Sasha
He hath prepared his sepulchre
Let us seal it for him
Let us clease our blades with the purity of bloodshed

Attack

Our hooves draw closer
Return her to us
Quell our vengeance
Return her to never

Your time draws nearer
Return her to us
Ranks grow larger
Return her to us

Her bridal is tightening
Bridal is tightening
