Based on "Lucy in the Sky
With Diamonds" by John Lennon and Paul MCartney
Picture yourself in a ship on the ocean
With watery waves and winds
in the sky
You see an island, you know it's the home of
A goddess
with magical eyes
She sees your men standing outside her door
Welcomes them into her
hall
Turning them all into swine with a wave of her wand
Circe on the Isle of Aeaea
Circe on the Isle of Aeaea
Circe on
the Isle of Aeaea
Follow them up from your camp by the seashore
A path through a
forest of towering trees
You meet a young man, who really is Hermes
Who
gives you a magical weed
She sees you coming and opens her doors
Gives you a potion to drink
Trying
to make you a pig with a wave of her wand
Circe on the Isle of Aeaea...
Picture yourself on an isle in the ocean
Enjoying and letting a
whole year go by
Suddenly someone is helping you homeward
The
goddess with magical eyes
Circe on the Isle of Aeaea...
Note: This is the third song in my ongoing project to tell the story of Homer's Oddysey in the style of the movie Yellow Submarine. -RobH
