[Verse 1]
Down below the galleys where the faring men ate
Lay the granite for the tombs and the tools to carve slate
All the piracy flourished seeking shillings and eight
At the time there was no knowledge of the map of their fate
For at starlight and moon-glow there were none to be saved
One digs too deep, he passes treasure to his grave, yeah
[Chorus]
In the night they behave
Now they're Gorgon's slave
When the eyes of Medusa
Stare them into their grave
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Let the moon-drops fall, hear the screams in the hall
For when there's no one to stand guard, only future futility to hear their call
It's the beast you may think drives the sane to the brink
Now the Gorgon's suspended the life in them all, yeah
Though they boasted glasses were empty, none there were brave
Couldn't cut from the gut of the Gorgon's slave, yeah
In the night, now they all behave
When those snakes of Medusa tie a leash to the grave
They came to take the jewels and eight
Now forever they will wait
But none cut from the gut of the Gorgon's cave, yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
Frozen down deep in suspended sleep and the mad cries rave
Let the moon-drops fall, hear the screams in the hall
When there's no one to stand guard, no one is saved
In the night they behave, the Gorgon's slave
When the snakes of Medusa tie a leash to the grave, yeah
Alright
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Alright
In the night they behave, now the Gorgon's slave, yeah
When those snakes of Medusa tie a leash to the grave
The Gorgon's slave, yeah
Yeah
