Hawkwind's Earth Ritual Preview EP

@SONG: Night of The Hawk


In all official circles
Across this big wide world
Between the radio stations
A coded message heard
No one knew the meaning
All our efforts seem to fail
But if they catch you listening
Then they'll lock you up in jail
So we found ourselves a place we did not know
Tension in the air and a strange earthly glow
Then amidst the noise of a thousand people's talk
There came a cry "It's The Night of The Hawk!"

The wind was raging, and the stars were black
We all knew there was no turning back
The gates of Hell stared in our face
Nowhere to hide in this wasted place

The curious folk who chanced to stray across this downland way
Heard the music blast apart
The games that politicians start
On English land the people dance
Like moths caught in a lamp
Where tribes of wanton peacocks strut
All waiting to encamp
So we found ourselves a place we did not know
Tension in the air and a strange earthly glow
Then amidst the noise of a thousand people's talk
There came a cry "It's The Night of The Hawk!

@SONG: Green Finned Demon:


He Draws the moon towards him
With a wand of whales' bone
The submarine magician is returning to his home
His slow hair floats around him
And his cloak spreads like a flower
The submariner has the oceans in his power

Green finned demon take me down
Green finned demon take me down

He speaks the bubbling language
Of everything that swims
He knows the eightfold secret
Of the Octopus's limbs
His skin is silver scales
And his hair is green as weed
His eyes are phosphorescent
A sea-horse for his steed

Green finned demon take me down
Green finned demon take me down

Captain Nemo knew him
In his underwater deep
He understands the meaning
Of the dolphins' joyful leap
Green finned demon take me down

@SONG: Dragons & Fables

I am the child of wars never won,
take heed prisoner I'm the one,
your battle is over before it began,
for a child on the run, I am free.

Many tournaments fought in this land,
flying banners now dashed in the sand,
the colours you wear will not keep me,
for a child on the run, I am free.

The courts and knights of the table,
bold stories of dragon and fable,
your sword is red-stained I can see,
for a child on the run, I am free.

Silk satin and riches in plenty,
acres of land four and twenty,
I am not you, I am me,
