Lyrics

[Intro] There may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release [Verse 1] Oh, my head is spinning like the world And it's filled with beasts I've seen Let me put my bag down And I'll tell you it all right from the start Like the scarlet woman Who would pick on the boys she thought were green And the two faced man Who made a hobby of breaking his wife's heart [Chorus] Seems the more I travel From the foam to gravel As the nets unravel All exotic fish I find like Jason and the Argonauts There may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release like Jason and the Argonauts There may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release [Verse 2] I was in a land where men force women To hide their facial features And here in the west it's just the same But they're using make-up veils I've seen acts of every shade of terrible Come from man-like creatures And I've had the breath of liars Blowing me off-course in my sails [Chorus] Seems the more I travel From the foam to gravel As the nets unravel All exotic fish I find like Jason and the Argonauts There may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release like Jason and the Argonauts There may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release [Bridge] I have watched the manimals go by Buying shoes, buying sweets, buying knives I have watched the manimals and cried Buying time, buying ends to other people's lives ...be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release And there may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release And there may be no golden fleece But human... ...my head is spinning like the world And it is filled with beasts I've seen My head is spinning like the world And it is filled with beasts I've seen... ...there may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release Well, there may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release Well, there may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release... ...I have watched the manimals go by here Buying shoes and buying sweets and buying knives I have watched the manimals go by here They're buying shoes and buying sweets... ...my head is spinning like the world And it is filled with beasts I've seen Oh, my head it is spinning like the world And it is filled with beasts I've seen Oh, my head it is spinning like the world... ...there may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release Well, there may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release... I have watched the manimals go by Buying shoes, buying sweets and buying knives! I have watched the manimals and cried Buying time, buying ends to other people's lives [Chorus] Jason and the Argonauts There may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release like Jason and the Argonauts There may be no golden fleece But human riches Jason and the Argonauts There may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release like Jason and the Argonauts There may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release [Outro] ...there may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release Well, there may be no golden fleece But human riches I'll release... (Jason and the Argonauts) ...my head is spinning like the world And it is filled with beasts I've seen Oh, my head it is spinning like the world And it is filled with beasts I've seen... (Jason and the Argonauts)
