The ending of this track carries a reminder of another song included on the Winter Solstice album! Once again, the woodland folk here teeter on the edge. Are they amusing and funny, or are they entirely psychopathic and cannibalistic?
lyrics
Walk this way, I need a tasty treat, something savoury, something sweet
If you see me rubbing my hands with delight, it’s because I’ve been awake and hungry all night, good to meet ya, wanna eat ya.
Visit my den, just here in the wood, you’ll like my cooking it’ll make you feel good
Gravy’s good and ice cream’s nice, you might go well with potatoes and rice
Good to meet ya, wanna eat ya
Eating you will make me feel so good that I can float away until I fly up high into the stars
I’m no mean witch, just a little old elf, if I offer to eat you I’m in good health
We elves now and then need a bit of a bite, we elves have a ravenous appetite
Good to meet ya, wanna eat ya.
All the witches in all the world will never cook like we do
No one else in the whole wide world can do what elves need to do
All the humans in all the world, can never take just a bite
We’re alone in the whole wide world for elves are not impolite
Eating you will make me feel so good that I can float away until I fly up high into the stars
Good to meet ya, wanna eat ya
We all get hiccups if we eat too fast, a tasty meal never seems to last
I love you so much I will never eat slow, you taste too good you’ll be pleased to know
Good to meet ya, wanna eat ya.
Eating something nice transcends us to the stars
Echo the stars.
I am something of an activist with my music & literature. As an indigenous Rom Gypsy my cultural and artistic work explores
the highs and lows of life/soul. I champion tribal origins, and the underdog in our modern times. I am tired of what this society tends to throw at us, especially innocent folk. I believe the awesome beauty of nature & the arts remains our only hope in this chaotic world....more
