Greenman Lyrics - Apple Venus (volume 1) - Xtc

Please to bend down for the one called the Greenman 

He wants to make you his bride 

Please to bend down for the one called the Greenman 

Forever to him you're tied 

And you know for a million years he has been your lover 

He'll be a million more 

And you know for a million years he has been your lover 

Down through the skin to the core 

Heed the Greenman 

Heed the Greenman 

Please to dance round for the one called the Greenman 

He wants to make you his child 

Please to dance round for the one called the Greenman 

Dressed in the fruits of the wild 

And you know for a million years he has been your father 

He'll be a million more 

And you know for a million years he has been your father 

Run to his arms at the door 

Lay your head, lay your head, lay your head, lay your head on the Greenman 

Lay your head, lay your head with mine 

Lay your head, lay your head, lay your head, lay your head on the Greenman 

Build a bed out of oak and pine 

See the Greenman blow his kiss from high church wall 

And unknowing church will amplify his call
