| Book 16 |
Long, long time ago, in a land called Odysseus returned from Athena said if he went home The suitors wouldn’t leave him ‘lone Athena told him to dress as a bum. He went to his friend, the swineherd’s hut. Then his son came home but he did not know The man was his own father Dressed up as a poor beggar. He sat by the fire to have a chat And found the bum to be his dad. He falls into his father’s hand And they begin to dance Chorus He started crying My, my what a strange old guy He looked like a bum but he’s really my dad. He’s been gone for so long Now he’s finally back. Singing this will be the day that I cry This will be the day that I cry. For years now we’ve been on our own The suitors trying to steal your throne. But now that you are safely home We’ll crush those suitor’s bones. Chorus He started singing He started singing He started singing. |
