about

Strange characters gathering in an old, stony castle… girls dancing shadows on the wall, the bread was red, the wine spilled… A celebration of the odd.
Inspired by the poem “The Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe.

lyrics

THE MISTRESS OF THE CROW

Verse 1
When I was walking in my town
I‘ve been walking very fast.
The clock was striking the hour
Like a raven from the past.
And all I tried to find was love
But all I found was charmless lust.

Verse 2
When we were dining in that hall
The girls danced shadows on the wall.
The bread was red and the wine spilled
The dogs were out, the rabbit killed.

Chorus
You are the Teacher of the Crown
You are the Mistress of the Crow.

Verse 3
You are a hundred years old
You lived in war-time and in peace.
You rose up children
In the morning they wake up
You were relieved.

Chorus
You are the Teacher of the Crown
You are the Mistress of the Crow.

Middle Eight
She shouted to relax my mind
The dreams were talking in the night.
Where is the face that hides a frown?
She said, erm, to relax the shore
To understand the show.

Chorus
You are the Teacher of the Crown
You are the Mistress of the Crow.
To scream in a dream is a good sign.

I never grow up.
I never grow up.
