Sing a Song of Cthulhu

Aye Cthulhu!
(Not written by John Denver)
 
To sail in your dreams from a long-forgot ocean,
Rising to life in a wild raging storm
The fruits of a sacrificed life and their dying,
To return once again to dreamlands unknown
The tentacles in motion, the torso still growing,
At last I know what I don't understand.
 

Aye Cthulhu! In R'yleh you're dreaming,
Of cultists who worship,
The stories they tell
Aye Cthulhu! They sing to your spirit,
Wishing you'd rise from the oceans which swell
 
Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'yleh wgah'nagl fhtagn
Ai! Ai! Cthulhu in R'yleh!
 
Your brothers, the Old Ones, they sleep there beside you
In far away space, awaiting the day
When they are summoned to this our world
To devour the land and swallow the sea
As told in the Celaeno Fragments
We are not the Beatles and can't let it be.

 
Aye Cthulhu! In R'yleh you're dreaming,
Of cultists who worship,
The stories they tell
Aye Cthulhu! They sing to your spirit,
Wishing you'd rise from the oceans which swell
 
Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'yleh wgah'nagl fhtagn
Ai! Ai! Cthulhu in R'yleh!
 
Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'yleh wgah'nagl fhtagn
Ai! Ai! Cthulhu in R'yleh!

Sing a Song...or at least read some lyrics....

You have to sing this either like you're Frank Sinatra or Judy Collins.  Except between you and the NSA, it's a secret.  I promise.

 
My government's rich
It doesn't play fair.
Me here at a desk in DC
You're over there
So where are my drones?
Isn't it great?
The polls all approve
We keep blowing things up
Before the targets can move...
Where are the drones?
Send in the drones.
So many targets to seek and destroy
seeing explosions and feeling the joy.
Making speeches on TV with my usual flair
Sure of my lines
But nobody cares...
Don't you love farce?
Our government to fear
Trade freedom for a moment of security
But we are sincere..
So where are the drones?
Send in the drones
Oh dear God, now they're here!
Weren't we rich?
Weren't we secure?
Giving it all up for power impure
So where are my drones?
I need some more drones...
Don't worry, don't fear....
