"Green Man" by XTC




Green Man lyrics – by XTC (full version)

Please to bend down for the one called the Green Man,
He wants to make you his bride
Please to bend down for the one called the Green Man,
Forever to Him you’re tied
And you know for a million years He has been your lover,
He’ll be a million more
And you know for a million years He has been your lover,
Down to the skin to the core

(Heed the Green Man, heed the Green Man)

Please to dance ‘round for the one called the Green Man,
He wants to make you his child
Please to dance ‘round for the one called the Green Man,
Dressed in the fruits of the wild
And you know for a million years He has been your Father,
He’ll be a million more
And you know for a million years He has been your Father,
Run to His arms at the door

Lay your head, lay your head, lay your head
Lay your head upon the Green Man
Lay your head, lay your head with mine
Lay your head, lay your head, lay your head
Lay your head upon the Green Man
Build a bed out of oak and pine

See the Green Man blow His kiss from high church wall,
And unknowing church will amplify His call!

Please to bend down for the one called the Green Man,
He wants to make you His bride
Please to bend down for the one called the Green Man,
Forever to Him you’re tied
And you know for a million years He has been your lover,
He’ll be a million more
And you know for a million years He has been your lover,
Down from the hills to the shore
