lyrics

Steady John the blacksmith
Took a horseshoe to the head
He arose like Lazarus
When it should've knocked him dead
He ascribed his recovery
To a ‘noon in bed
I suspect a different cure
Might have been found instead

Something strange is afoot in the parish
Something strange is afoot in the parish

The case of the butcher's wife
Was a curious case indeed
When a slip of the butcher's knife
Made her bleed and bleed
They all said she was done for
Her husband paid no heed
Took her away and the very next day
She was back to cutting meat

Something strange is afoot in the parish
Something strange is afoot in the parish
Something strange is afoot in the parish
Something strange is afoot in the parish

Then the sound of singing
Lured me like a siren's call
To a midnight gathering
Taking place in the village hall
Where a feast was prepared
For the wounded, sick and the old
Who took it in turns
To drink blood from a human skull

Something strange is afoot in the parish
Something strange is afoot in the parish
Immortality's yours if you drink from
the chalice
Something strange is afoot in the parish
