The Minotaur's Song Lyrics

Straight from the shoulder
I think like a soldier
I know what's right and what's wrong
(He knows what's right and what's wrong)

I'm the original discriminating buffalo man
And I'll do what's wrong as long as I can
(He'll do what's wrong as long as he can)

I live in a labyrinth under the sea
Down in the dark as dark as can be
I like the dark as dark as can be
(He likes the dark as dark as can be)

I'll even attack you or eat you whole
Down in the dark my bone mills roll
Porridge for my porridge bowl
(Porridge for his porridge bowl)

I'm strong as the earth from which I'm born
(He's strong as the earth from which he's born)
I can't dream well because of my horns
(He can't dream well because of his horns)

I'm strong as the earth from which I'm born
(He's strong as the earth from which he's born)
I can't dream well because of my horns
(He can't dream well because of his horns)

A Minotaur gets very sore
His features they are such a bore
His habits are predicta-bull
Aggressively relia-bull, bull, bull

Strong as the earth from which I'm born
(He's strong as the earth from which he's born)
I can't dream well because of my horns
(He can't dream well because of his horns)

I'm the original discriminating buffalo man
I'll do what's wrong as long as I can
(He'll do what's wrong as long as he can)

As long as he can
As long as he can
As long as he can
As long as he can
As long as he can
As long as he can
