The ancient Gods went on a fishing trip Tried to catch the world's largest serpent Coiled 'round the globe She would not succumb But you know the Gods they will not be They will not be undone So they asked a question of the Northern Woods: Who caught the fish when no one else could? So they took our man To the night sky See him hauling catches for all For all of time We don't believe these stories we tell Though we still see the shapes in the clouds We don't believe these stories we tell But we're casting you In these imaginary plays We do it all, we do it all Just to see your face It's not easy to be the god of revelry Give the people bliss but do not let it turn to fury Dionysus must have grown Tired and weary Trying to get folks to let go Let go of their fear Who amongst you knows about bliss? Who can ride a chariot while still givin' a kiss? So Dionysus took our wild one Now she's throwing parties at the top The top of the mountain We don't believe these stories we tell Though we still see the shapes in the clouds We don't believe these stories we tell But we're casting you In these imaginary plays We do it all, we do it all Just to see your face Oh Ursa Major and the Minor Bear Musta been looking just about everywhere For a pair with a light so bright They could light up the whole northern sky Oh And these stories we tell We know they're not true But well tell them still So we can always Remember you
