Nik Turner - Thoth lyrics

Of the gods I am scribe, of the laws I am lord I weigh hearts in the balance, I weigh words in their essence In my ibis-helmed wisdom record negative confessions Some know me as Mercury, supplying words of power Thou knowest my name dwelling in my hour I'm Thoth; bestowing powers on the gods I'm Thoth; lord of light and truth I'm Thoth; mighty one of enchantments Gave words of power Osiris on the night of things of light Gave words of charm to Isis whose legends put to right Enchantment gave I Horus, victor of the fight With my own fingers I hold Set's fire His nerves I used to string my lyre I'm Thoth; self-created lord of the elements I'm Thoth; steering the boat of millions of years I'm Thoth; mighty one of enchantments I'm Thoth; mighty one of enchantments I'm Thoth; self-created lord of the elements I'm Thoth; steering the boat of millions of years I'm Thoth; mighty one of enchantments Mighty one of enchantments Of the gods I am scribe, of the laws I am lord I weigh hearts in the balance, I weigh words in their essence In my ibis-helmed wisdom record negative confessions Some know me as Mercury, supplying words of power Thou knowest my name dwelling in my hour I'm Thoth; bestowing powers on the gods I'm Thoth; lord of light and truth I'm Thoth; mighty one of enchantments Gave words of power Osiris on the night of things of light Gave words of charm to Isis whose legends put to right Enchantment gave I Horus, victor of the fight With my own fingers I hold Set's fire His nerves I used to string my lyre
