lyrics

yeah she's your girl
but she's my girl too
when we enter the mystic
it feels like rain on a tin roof
isolation
strawberry moon
debbie can't dance
but she knows how to move

let the mystery repeat itself
let the mystery repeat itself
let the mystery repeat itself
let the mystery repeat itself

i'm never getting dressed
to go to war
torch those rags and watch the fire grow
i met the minotaur
down at the dive bar
he bought me a drink
and he said

out past the sirens where the banshees wail
turn back pink satin sheets and hoist the sails
there's always been room for more than me
more than you
than two than three than four
chorus
say it with me now:
no axe no blade

in the sacred grove
in the sacred grove
in the sacred grove
