about

A song about the mythology of Odin's hunting dogs. Literary reference: The White Goddess by Robert Graves

lyrics

Church yard gate, crystal morning, walk out in Sunday best.
Voices murmer, murmer past the dead in their peaceful rest.
Last night I was woken by my dog, or was it geese in the winter fog?
Dreams of horses, horses on the moor.
And a one eyed man hammering at my door.

Run run, run run the sky burns golden red
The Dandy Dogs will gnaw your bones,
'should have stayed at home in bed.
Run run, run run, breathless, found-out shamed
The Dandy Dogs will hunt you down,
They're calling out your name.

Beneath the hedge foxes grin,
Make Odin rage and valley spin.
Along the cobbled street he ran,
The slipshod path where his crimes began.
Fleeting, falling, falling into the still historic deep.
Cry no more, cry no more,
Lest you fall into the deepest sleep.
