Gorgon Lyrics by Tempest (UK)

Tempest

1973

[Intro]
In darkened forest of the Past
Far beyond brave tales of Arthur
Lies an age taught as history
To ancient rulers of the world
Whence comes a vision of the woman
Cursed beyond all mortal evils
Whose countenance alone converted
Fearless men to blocks of stone

[Verse 1]
When you think you've got free
She's just stringing you along
She's got a very long leash
To pull you back home
She's got everything going
But it's so bad
She's a snakehead monster
With a masonery fad
Drive you mad

[Verse 2]
She smiles at you and tries to be nice
Look into her eyes and you'll turn to ice
It's never colder than when she's alongside you
But if you're stuck on someone else
She'll melt the glue
You know it's true
You know it's true

[Chorus]
Look upon her if you dare
Only one shall have her
For brave men die of hearts of stone
As surely by the dagger

[Verse 3]
There's never an end to a tale like this
There's always another with death on her kiss
The mythical Jason was saved by his shield
He was just a legend
But you and her are real
It's such a bad deal
It's such a bad deal
