[00:50.83] Poor old Ra, you were much better off as a sun god weren't ya?
[00:57.07] No one gives a shit about your falcon head anymore
[01:03.40] Atet sunk down somewhere off the coast of New Brunswick or the arctic
[01:09.57] Sektet sunk with Horus stoned at the wheel
[01:15.48] With every oil slick and passing barge
[01:19.03] The chances that you are go down
[01:28.05] But with your feet in the Egyptian sand
[01:31.60] This weak little shell of a man falls away
[01:41.24] I know that the plight of the morning's light will not let you love me
[01:47.28] Baby you got stitches that will tell me differently
[01:53.48] When it's a patchwork of click and something that sounds like a beak break bonesaw
[01:59.87] It's good enough for Ra but it's not good enough for me
[02:05.73] And as derelict you come off slow
[02:09.30] Even in the kitty jail you were calico
[02:18.31] And as the prisoner in the chain arrives
[02:22.10] Catcalls baring teeth come from every side
[02:56.05] With every oil slick and passing barge
[02:59.50] The chances that you are go down
[03:09.48] But with you feet in the Egyptian sand
[03:13.46] This weak little shell of a man falls away
[03:22.50] I am the tension, you are the tightrope-
[03:25.54] You grabbed the last little straw that was hidden in your own forearm
[03:35.27] I am the tension, you are the tightrope-
[03:38.15] You came prepared with a gun that was hidden in your own stone vest
[03:47.80] I am the tension, you are the tightrope-
[03:50.79] Part this pharoah with his crown when he is leaning on this cane, and Isis
[03:56.85] Will steal all secrets
[04:00.21] I am the tension, you are the tightrope-
[04:03.45] Benu that bird of Ra with the collar of a snake, Uraeus
[04:09.56] And plays with solar
[04:12.93] I am the tension, you are the tightrope-
[04:16.27] Hathor had changed to the lion and will always be combined, with Sekmet
[04:22.03] And will kill all approaching
[04:25.55] I am the tension, you are the tightrope-
[04:28.86] So give me a moment with her mane and I'll see if I can tame fell beast
[04:34.72] And as Thoth I will bring her back
