There may be no golden fleece
but human riches Ill release
oh, my head is spinning like the world
and its filled with beasts Ive seen,
let me put my bag down
and Ill tell you it all right from the start.
like the scarlet woman who would pick on the boy
s she thought were green, and the two faced man
who made a hobby of breaking his wifes heart.
seems the more I travel, from the foam to gravel,
as the nets unravel, all exotic fish
I find like jason and the argonauts
there may be no golden fleece
but human riches Ill release.
I was in a land where men force women to hide
their facial features,
and here in the west its just the same
but theyre using make-up veils.
Ive seen acts of every shade of terrible crime
from man-like creatures, and Ive had the breath
of liars blowing me of course in my sails.
seems the more I travel,
from the foam to gravel, as the nets unravel,
all exotic fish
I find like jason and the argonauts
there may be no golden fleece
but human riches Ill release.
I have watched the manimals go buy---buying shoes,
buying sweets, buying knives.
I have watched the manimals and cried
buying time, buying ends to other peoples lives.
jason and the argonauts
there may be no golden fleece
but human riches Ill release.
