lyrics
Jack:
(Mother)
Brave boy, give your mother a kiss
The woods are not as dark as they seem.
Don’t tear your shirt on brambles,
Don’t wander from the path,
Be sure to leave an offering by the stream.
The River King loves burdock best,
The Rusalka honey wine,
Don’t talk to any strangers
And be home by supper time.
(Hawker)
My Fine Young Man!
I’ve got something that you might like
Stray a little farther from the road
A golden goose, some magic beans!
Not everything is as it seems!
Don’t heed your mother’s warning,
you’re almost grown.
If every boy in every story had listened to his mother,
There’d be no more tales to tell around the fire
Cuz Jack he fought the Giant, and Hansel killed the witch,
I might be selling snake oil, but I ain’t no liar.
La-da-da-da-da-da, La-da-da-da-da,
Come a little closer, Jack…
La-da-da-da-da-da, La-da-da-da-da,
It’s time to wander front he path.
La-da-da-da-da-da, La-da-da-da-da,
Tuck this little treasure in your pack
La-da-da-da-da-da, La-da-da-da-da,
You can take it, but you can’t take it back.
Don’t the shade feel nice? Just a little farther now
You’ll be the next famous Jack to stand out from the crowd
Try on these magic boots, buy a thimble of gold,
I’ve got a lot of secrets, but secrets can be sold!
La-da-da-da-da-da, La-da-da-da-da,
Come a little closer, Jack…
La-da-da-da-da-da, La-da-da-da-da,
It’s time to wander front he path.
La-da-da-da-da-da, La-da-da-da-da,
Tuck this little treasure in your pack
La-da-da-da-da-da, La-da-da-da-da,
You can take it, but you can’t take it back.
The Forgetmenauts weave folklore and mythology into a strange, fresh, and rich soundscape. Their musicality is orchestral,
folksy, alternative, and punk all at once. Their lyrics spin old tales and new into exciting and poetic songs that weave together love and queerness, longing and revenge. Come for the Marriage of Bigfoot and Mothman, stay for the Gay Werewolf Murder Ballad....more
Pairing lo-fi indie rock with silvery folk instrumentation, the self-described "bedroom pop wizard" casts a cozy, poignant spell. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 11, 2024
This debut from the Melbourne-based folk-rock band tackles environmental issues, self-determination, and relationships. Bandcamp New & Notable May 26, 2023
This is a great adaptation of Arthuriana and a brilliant narrative album. I love how the queerness of the characters is handled as an integral part of the narrative and plot development without it being the end all be all of the characters themselves. my boy Gawain deserved better though maritarvaniti
