Semenelin


On an uncharted isle 
A group of ground diggers toil 
To try to find what remains are lying 
Beneath the darkened soil 

With their axes constantly pounding 
And their shovels breaking through the ground 
It was about daybreak when someone shouted 
He had heard an awkward sound 

Oh my! Here we've found something 
What could it be 
Oh my, I can hear my heart pounding 
It's the Nobel Prize for me 

All went close to pay attention 
To what it was that made them run 
A piece of metal shone in the opening 
With the rising sun. 

From under the ground they saw it rise 
No one knew what was coming 
An ancient machine stood before their eyes 
If they only knew what they were doing 

Tattooed across the monster's back 
Was one word written down in black 
From origins unknown 
Where did it begin 
The mighty behemoth 
Semenelin 

At once, the military came 
They were there to investigate 
They sent soldiers in 
To see what they could locate 
Hands quickly started to pry 

Lovers were pulled, God knows why 
Turbines began to hum 
The machine was on 
It tore the ground beneath them 
And created lava pools 
An excellent burial 
For this ship of sinking fools 
Someone built it up to hold a mighty reign 
Over his steadfast domain 
The world now shudders in its bulk 
To the rotting hulk
